n GARMENT.
Application filed Ma 9', 1928, s rial mf /6,345, and in Canada July 2, 1927.
This invention relates to garments, and more particularly to heavy shirts of knitted fabric used in gymnasiums. This type of shirt is .donnedv and dofi'ed by the passage of the wearers head through an opening in the top of the garment, and my object is to provide a garment of this character whlch will fit neatly around the neck of the wearer.
I attain my object by securing a collar of elastic material such as knitted fabric around the edge of the top opening in the garment, the ends of the collar being narrower in width than the remainder thereof toform a Vshaped opening at the front of the garment. This V-shaped opening is normally closed by an overlying closure. strip of elastic material which extends across the front of the top opening and is secured to the edge thereof. The constructions are heremafter more fully described and are illustrated in the accompanying drawings in which Fig. 1 is a front elevation of part of my garment showing the collar and the overlying strip in their normal positions;
Fig. 2 is a similar view showlng the collar and closure strip stretched to pass over the wearers head; and
Fig. 3 a vertical section of the upper part of the garment.
In the drawings like numerals of reference indicate corresponding parts in the different figures.
1 is the body portion of the garment which is provided with the usual arm hole openings 2, the edges of which may be bound or short or long sleeves may be secured thereto. At the top of the garment is provided an opening 3 which is slightly dipped at the front of the garment and this dip extends from one shoulder portion 4 to the other shoulder portion 4. This dip in the opening results in the width thereof across the garment being increased when the latter is pulled to straightenout the front edge of the opening. The size of the opening is thus increased sufficiently to enable the passage of the wearers head therethrough to permit the garment to be donned and dofit'ed.
A collar 5 formed of a band of elastic mate. rial such as ribbed knitted fabric is secured by the stitching 6 around the edge of the opening 3. This collar is formed of double thickness to provide a rounded edge 5 for cont-act with the wearers neck and thebottom or'free edges of the collar are cut to form narrow ends or points 5. brought together at the front ofthe shirtand form a V-shaped opening or gap 5 between the edges 5 By so cutting the collar a perfect fit around the neck is ensured and the V-shaped opening facilitates the donning and dofling of the garment.
To substantially close the V-shaped open ing 5 and to hide the narrow ends 5' of the collar I secure a closure strip 7 to the dipped edge of the top opening 3. The closure strip is also formed of ribbed knitted fabric or the like of double thickness and has its ends 7 narrower in width than the middle portion thereof. The latter portion is arranged centrally of the V-shaped opening and the ends 7 a die away at the shoulder portions 4 and 4. The lower edge of the strip is secured either by the stitching 6 or a separate row of stitching to the edge of the top opening 3.
The rounded edge or neck opening 5 of the collar 5 and the rounded edgeof the closure strip 7 permit a greater lateral stretch at these edges than at the lower edges of these parts so that they may be stretched to conform to the size and shape of the top opening 3 when it is straightened out to pass over the head of the wearer as shown in Fig. 2. The collar and closure strip have a tendency to lie flat against the body of the wearer to form a neat fitting garment as shown in Fig. 1.
What I claim is:
1. A garment having an opening at the top thereof; a collar having its ends narrower in width than the remainder of the collar and secured around the edge ofthe said opening;
and a closure strip overlying the said narrow ends and secured to the garment.
2. A garment having an opening at the top thereof; an elastic fabric collar secured around the edge of the said opening and provided with a substantially V-shaped opening to facilitate the donning and dotting of the garment over the head of the wearer; and a closure strip overlying the V-shaped opening and extending substantially from. one shoulder to the other of the garment and being secured along the edge of the top opening.
3. A garment having an opening at the top These ends are thereof adapted to permit the passage of the wearers head therethrough; a collar having its ends pointed toform a V-shaped opening between them, the base of the collar being secured around the edge of the said opening; and a closure strip overlying the said V- shaped opening and being secured to the edge of the top opening.
l. A garment having an opening at the top thereof; an elastic fabric collar secured around the edge of the said opening and provided with a substantially V-shaped opening to facilitate the donning and doffing of the garment over the head of the wearer; and a closure strip tapering in width from the middle towards each end, and arranged centrally of the V-shaped opening.
5. A garment having an opening at the top thereof adapted to permit the passage of the wearers head therethrough; a collar having its ends pointed reform a Vshaped opening between them, the base of the collar being secured around the edge of the said opening; and a closure strip extending substantially from one shoulder to the other of the garment and having its ends narrower in width than the middle portion thereof, the closure strip being secured along its lower edge to the edge of the top opening, the said middle portion being arranged centrally of the V-shaped opening.
Signed at Hamilton, Canada, this 3rd day of May, 1928.
