SOFT COLLAR.
Application filed March 2,
This invention relates to a soft collar of either the attached or detached style.
The principal objects of the invention to provide a soft collar with means by which it will stay firmly in place and not sag down around the neck, without the use of starch or stiffening, and to avoid the thick heins heretofore necessary when a stiffening material has been employed and thus provide a collar of a neat and attractive appearance.
The collar is designed to have the same material outside as the shirt and present all the stvle and appearance of a laundered or stiff cbllar and vet retain the ease and comfort of a-soft collar and avoid the bulkiness and thickness at the hems.
@ther objects and advantages of the invention will appear hereinafter. A
lBteference is to be had to the accompanyingl drawings in which Fig. 1 is a view of the inner side of one end of a collar with the lining broken away to show the interior construction;
Fig. 2 is a sectional perspective view on f the line 2 2 of Fig. 1 and on enlarged scale,
and
Fig. 3 is a similar view of the stiifening material of the collar. A
It has been customary heretofore to make soft collar with a multiply interwoven fabric inside, constituting a stifl'ening piece which is hemmed over at the top and bottom and forms a very bulky hem and unsightly appearance, particularly after it is ironed.
This invention is designed to avoid the use of an interwoven multiply stiifening material and particularly the hemming of such a fabric at the edge and the elimination of the bulky hem at the top and bottom. This invention can be used as a detached collar or as an attached one and the latter is shown in the drawings.
The collar is shown as comprising a neck band having an inner layer and an outer layer 11 of self-material, that is, material of the same character as that of the shirt 12, which is to be sewed between the lower edges of the two layers 10 and 11. The outer layer of self material 11 is reinforced by two layers 13 and 14 of stitliy woven single-ply webbing. The rear layer of this fabric is turned 1928. Serial No. 258,586.
`over with the hem at the too as indicated at hem are located longitudinally7 and pass through four layers at the bottom and five layers at the tol The two layers of stiifening material 13 and 141 are sewed together by a series of rows of stitches 19 which may be longitudinal, as
indicated, but do not pass through the rear layer 11 or front layer 10. Therefore, these stitches are entirely concealed from view. The seams 17 and 18 which form the above mentioned hems pass through the inner piece 10 and also the flap 2O of the collar, which is made in any of the usual ways, but which is secured in its place without any hem in its own material. The stitching 18 of course stitches the neck band to the top of the shirt.
In this way a collar is produced having a stiff neck band which will stay in place like a starched collar and yet is comparatively soft and flexible. It holds the iiap 2O in position just as if the whole of the collar were starched, yet the softness, which is desirable, is not lost and the whole collar has the feeling of a soft collar, although it stands up nearly as well as if it were starched all over. There need be no starch in it, although a small amount of starch may be used as is the general practice in this type of collar.
Although we have illustrated and described only one form of the invention we are aware of the fact that modifications can be made therein by any person skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the invention as expressed in the claim.
Therefore, we do not wish to be limited in these respects but what we do claim is As an article of manufacture, a collar comprising a flap, a neck band consisting of an inner fabric and an outer fabric, both of the same material and both hemmed over at the top and bottom and secured together, the flap being secured between the tops of said inner and outer fabrics by a line of stitching,

two layers of single-ply stiffening material being located on the inner side of the back piece of the neck band, one of them extending to the hem only and the other .being 5 turned over at that end and under the outer Fieee to form the hem at the top, the two ayers of iiiterlining being stitched together Y by parallel rows of stitching, the outer layer of material entirely concealing said parallel rows of stitches.` Y l0 In testimony whereof Vwe have hereunto affixed our signatures.
