Myjmproved garter comprises a knee. band 5, preferably formed of three-plies of fabric or cloth, attached or sewed together at their edges, as shown at 6. This knee band. preferably tapers toward its ends, as, shown. As above stated,-the knee-band consists of three plies of fabric, comprising an inner strip of cloth which is soft and will not irritate the skin. Upon the outer side of the inner strip of cloth there is a strip of cloth suchas' silk, satin or the like, having an attractive appearance and which will wear-well. Between the inner and outer 7 strips is arranged a'strip of reinforcing'or stiffening cloth, which imparts to the band the. desired stilfness and strength.
Depending from the lmee-band 5 are while; the strap 12 is arranged at a point substantially equidistantly spaced from such ends. The inner strap 12 is preferably sub- J stantially longer than the straps 11 and 13.
- 'Eacliof these straps 11,- 12 and 13 has its -upper endsecured' to a loop 14, attached to the k 1 1 ee-band 5 by a short strap 15., The

Secured to the knee-band 5 at a point substantially equi-distantly spaced from its ends, is an upwardly extending buckle or clamp .24.
In use, the upper clamps 20, 21 and 24, are secured to the under garment for. suspending the garter, with the knee-band 5 arranged forwardly of 'and contacting with the lmee. The straps 11, 12 and 13, are secured to the hose or socks, the strap 12 being arranged forwardly and the straps 11 and 13 upon opposite sidesof the leg. The
function of having the strap. 12 longer than the other depending straps is that when thewearer is standing erect the socks arejwholly supported by the straps 11 and 13 while the.
'the slack is taken out of the long strap 12 and the sock is supported at the front as well as at the sides, thus preventing it from wrinkling. It is obvious that the knee-band also serves to protect the knees of the trousers from-perspiration or the like,
