A. T. LTAPHAM NECKWEAR Filed June 22, 1953 4 Patented June 1l, 1935 UNITED STATESl NECKWEAR Albert Thomas Lapham, London, England Application June 22, 1933, Serial No. 677,007 In Great Britain June 29, 1932 1 Claim.
This invention relates to improvements in neckties the two ends of which are alike in shape so that either end may be used to tieV the knot.
In accordance with the invention the tie is constituted by two end pieces substantially identical in shape, though they may differ in pattern, each cut on the true bias (i. e. at an angle of 45 to the warp and weft threads) and connected with one another by gusset pieces with an interlining also cut on the true bias stitched to the end pieces and with the usual neck band insert. In addition to the interlining there may be stitched to the tie between the interlining and the rear side of the tie a strip of elastic tending to retain the tie in shape and enhancing this effect of the interlining.
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawing in which Fig. 1 is a view showing the parts of which the tie is constituted prior to assembly, the interlining and neck band, for convenience of illustration, being shown superposed on the end pieces and gusset pieces. Fig. 2 is a view showing the iinished tie. Fig. 3 shows the reverse side. Fig. 4 is a detail illustrating a modi- `cation and Fig. 5 a section on the line 5-5 of Fig. 4.
As shown in accordance with the invention the improved tie is formed of two end pieces A and B, substantially identical in shape cut on the true bias, two wedge-shaped gusset pieces C, D, interlining'pieces E and F also cut on the true bias and a neck-band strip G. The end pieces, gusset pieces, interlining pieces and neck band strip are stitched together in theusual way and the whole connected by stitching H over the mid portion of the tie to form the tie shown in Figs. 2 and 3.`
As the two end pieces A and B are substantiallyV identical in shape either end-may be used totie the knot. Consequently the'tie will have twice the life of ties in which a narrow end and a wide tying end are provided. Moreoverif the two end pieces A and B are of diierent design, the one tie may be used to provide the same service as two V`different tiles. The interlinings and end pieces being cut on the true bias prevent distortion of the tie to a very great extent.
In the modication illustrated in Figs. 4 and 5 there is stitched between the material of the tie and the interlining a'strip of elastic I which increases the effect obtained by the true bias cutting of the end pieces and of the interlinings to retain the tie in shape.
It will be appreciated of course that since the ends are alike, either may be used to tie the knot. The two end pieces may be of different design or colour thus providing a choice in the pattern or colour of the tie used.
I claimz- 1 A necktie comprising folded end pieces anda connecting neckband section, said end pieces being of the same form and dimensions and each cut on the bias, an interliner for each end piece, said interliners also being cut on the bias, and an elastic reinforcing member extending longitudinally of the necktie, said elastic reinforcing member being positioned and secured between the interliners and the rear folds of the end pieces.
