at the front which makes them present an untidy appearance. I
This objection has resulted in designers and manufacturers trying various methods to overcome this objection which efforts have met with more or less success.
The object of my invention is to provide n'feans to overcome this objection by introducing a rigidifying element into the collar in a zone near the ends of the collar and leave the major part of the collar soft.
-My invention consists of a pocket on the neck band disposed longitudinally of the collar near each end of the band and closed at the top and bottom by the usual edge stitching of the collar and closed at the front by a line of stitching extending transversely of the band at a point which will be concealed when the top is folded down, the rear end of the pocket being open, and a rigidifying element removably secured in the pocket, the pockets being comparatively short, whereby the end tabs and the intermediate portion of the collar is soft.
In the drawings:
Figure 1 is a plan view of a collar embodymg my invention;
Fig. 2 is an enlarged detail view of one end portion of Fig. 1;
Fig. 3 is a vertical sectional view through my improved collar in its folded position.
The reference numeral 1 designates the top fold portion of the collar, and 2 .the neck band thereof, both of which are composed of a plurality of plies of suitable material. r
The band is provided near each end on its outer, or concealed face with a pocket 3 which pocket is closed at the top and botof the usual edge stitching 4' tom by means of the collar, while the front end of the pocket is closed by a line of stitches 5 transversely disposed on the band at a point which willbe concealed by the top portion when the collar is folded for use. The rear end of the pocket is open as at 6. I place a rigidifying element 7 in the pocket, which element may be formed from any suitable material which will not when wet or moist discolor the collar.
It will be seen that the pockets are comparatively short, and that the end tabs and that the major portion of the band is free from the rigidifying element and are therefore soft.
It will also be seen that the rigidifying elements are properly positioned to prevent the front of the collar crushing or wrinkling and that they will at all times maintain the band at the front smooth and in an upright position and that consequently the ends of the top fold of the collar will be free from wrinkles and will at all times present a neat appearance.
I claim\:
A soft folding collar having neck band and a folded over top, said band being formed ofa plurality of pliesof fabric, the plies of said band being continuously stitched together near the edges of the bandthroughout the entire length thereof, an extra ply of fabric on the outer face of the neck band at each end and constituting pockets disposed longitudinally thereof and closed at the top and bottom thereof by the said edge stitching, and closed at the front by a line of stitching extending through the neck band and from top to bottom thereof, and spaced back from the juncture of the front edge of the folded over top and the neck band, whereby they are concealed when the top is folded over the band, the rear end of the pockets being permanently 'open, said pockets bein comparatively short, and a flexible rigidlfying ply removably secured in said pocket, whereby sustained vertically, near its front portion, against collapse, and whereby the tabs of the collar and that portion of the band be- .tween'the rigidifying elements is soft and the neck band is sustained only by the usual neck band plies. 7
In testimony whereof I aflix my signature.
DONALD B. BECKER.
