to protect them against wear while driving.

It is an object of the invention to provide a durable, simply and cheaply made form of sleeve protector which is always held in a substantially tubular form so that it may be quickly and easily put on or removed, and which can be promptly adjusted to fit snugly around sleeves of varying sizes.

l/Vith these and other objects and advantages in view which will become apparent as the specification proceeds the invention is hereinafter more fully described with the aid of the accompanying drawings, in which:

Figure 1 shows the invention in position around a coat sleeve, and

Figure 2 is a perspective view of the invention.

Referring to the drawings, 1 designates a flexible member, which may consist of fabric or any other suitable material, from one longitudinal margin 2 of which projecting tabs 3 and a extend, one usually adjacent either end of the said member. These tabs 3 and 4: are each provided with a convenso tional snap fastener portion 5, or 6. Ar-

ranged substantially at right angles to the other longitudinal margin '7 of the flexible member, and opposite the tabs 3 and 4:, are a plurality of snap fastener portions 8 and 9 respectively. The fastener portion 5 cooperates with any one, of the fastener portions 8, and the fastener portion 6 with any one of the fastener portions 9, so that the protector may be so adjusted to lit The reason for this being that it may be desirable at one time to use a protector over a light rain coat and at another time over a heavy overcoat having" larger and thicker sleeves, and

2. A sleeve protector comprising a flexible member, means adjacent both ends for permanently holding said member flexed in a large and substantially tubular form so that its longitudinal margins lie adjacent to one another to facilitate putting on and taking off said member, projecting tabs towards both ends of said member extending beyond one of its longitudinal margins, a fastener portion secured to each of said tabs,
