Abstract
A reversible garment has a pocket into which a remainder of the garment can be inserted. In preferred embodiments the garment is a jacket, and the pocket is located at an upper rear portion of the jacket. The pocket can be oversized relative to space needed to accommodate the remainder of the garment, thereby providing significant additional carrying space for other items. Preferred garments include one or more carrying strap, situated about the pocket such that the user can wear the pocket by slinging a strap over her shoulder, or wearing the pocket as a backpack. One or both of the two finished sides of the garment can be treated with a stain resistant composition, and the two sides can have the same, similar, or different colors, textures, and fabrics.
Description
- This application is a continuation-in-part of U.S. Ser. No. 09/989,567 filed Nov. 19, 2001, which claims priority to provisional application No. 60/253,001 filed Nov. 27, 2000.
- The field of the invention is reversible garments.
- Bag garments are characterized by having a pocket into which the remainder of the garment can be folded or stuffed. A relatively recent example of a convertible coat is set forth in U.S. Pat. No. 5,996,121 to Harris (December 1999). Earlier bag jackets are taught in U.S. Pat. No. 4,502,154 to Itoi (March 1985). These and all other referenced extrinsic materials are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. Where a definition or use of a term in an incorporated reference is inconsistent or contrary to the definition of that term provided herein, the definition of that term provided herein applies and the definition of that term in the reference does not apply.
- It is also known to combine a bag garment with a shoulder step or other carrying strap, and in the '154 application it is disclosed that the straps can be used to wear the pocket section of a bag garment as a knapsack. Significantly, however, known bag garments have pockets that are only just large enough to fit the remainder of the garment. That makes sense because the pockets must contain the entire remainder of the garment, and one of ordinary skill in the art would think that a much larger pocket would be unnecessary and possibly unsightly.
- The fact is that in the many decades that bag garments have been known, the pockets of bag garments have always been sized and dimensioned to just barely contain the remainder of the garment. In U.S. design Pat. No. 277,049 to Peyser (January 1985), for example, the pocket/carrier bag can only hold one item, the jacket itself and nothing more. The same is true of the combination beach towel and tote bag found in U.S. Pat. No. 4,856,912 to Damus (August 1989), the jacket and bag found in U.S. Pat. No. 4,347,629 to Itoi (September 1982), and the combination coat with a built in sleeping bag found in U.S. Pat. No. 4,158,892 to Gonzales (June 1979).
- Reversible garments are characterized by being finished on both sides (what would normally be an inside and an outside), such that the garment has a finished appearance when worn either side out. Such garements usually consist of two shells that are colored, patterned or textured differently from one another to provide two different “looks”. The shells can be coupled together in any suitable fashion, including sewing, zippering, and so forth. Recent examples of reversible jackets are set forth in US publication no. 2004/0163155 to Haughey (published August 2004), and U.S. Pat. No. 6,550,066 to Brassey (April 2003). Earlier examples of reversible garements are set forth in U.S. Pat. No. 2,711,539 to Loscher (June 1955).
- One significant feature of reversible jackets is that the use of two shells makes them bulkier than normal jackets, and certainly bulkier than a jacket made with either shell by itself. This is generally not a problem, but would dissuade one of ordinary skill in the art from applying the garment-in-a-bag concept to a reversible garment. Thus, it appears that there has never been a reversible garment that has a pocket large enough to receive the remainder the garment, nor any teaching, suggestion, or motivation to do so.
- The present invention provides apparatus, systems and methods in which a reversible garment has a pocket into which a remainder of the garment can be inserted, and that is oversized so that the pocket can concurrently contain other contents as well.
- In preferred embodiments the garment is a jacket, and the pocket is located at an upper rear portion of the jacket. The pocket can be oversized relative to space needed to accommodate the remainder of the garment, thereby providing significant additional carrying space for other items. The additional space is preferably at least 1000 cm3, 2000 cm3, or 3000 cm3.
- In another aspect of preferred embodiments, the garment includes one or more carrying strap, situated about the pocket such that the user can wear the pocket by slinging a strap over her shoulder, or wearing the pocket as a backpack.
- In another aspect of preferred embodiments, one or both of the two finished sides of the garment can be treated with a stain resistant composition, and the two sides can have the same, similar, or different colors, textures, and fabrics.
- Various objects, features, aspects and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description of preferred embodiments of the invention, along with the accompanying drawings in which like numerals represent like components.
-
FIG. 1 is a front view of a garment according to an embodiment of the present invention, in which the straps (handles) have been brought outside the pocket. -
FIG. 2 is a rear view of the garment ofFIG. 1 . -
FIG. 3 is a plan view of the jacket ofFIG. 1 in the process of being stuffed into the pocket. -
FIG. 4 is a perspective view of the garment ofFIG. 1 , having been converted into a tote bag. -
FIG. 5 is a front view of the garment ofFIG. 1 in its reversible mode. -
FIG. 6 is a rear view of the garment ofFIG. 1 in its reversible mode. -
FIG. 1 shows a preferred outerwear garment in its mode of operation as a casual jacket or the like. Several of the features can be conventional. For example, in this particular embodiment mouth 1 is the head and neck opening of the outerwear garment; buttonhole track 2, along withbutton 3, comprise a fastening device used to keep the garment closed when being worn as a jacket; andsleeve 4 is used to receive the arms of a wearer, andtrunk portion 5 is positionable about the trunk of the wearer. Of course, none of these conventional features should be interpreted as being limiting on the scope of the claimed invention. For example, other contemplated inventive garments might use a zipper in place of, or in addition to, one or more button closures. Similarly, the jacket might well have short sleeves, or might even be sleeveless, as in a vest. Still further, the garment ofFIG. 1 should be interpreted as being emblematic of any outerwear garment, including for example a parka, a dress, or a pair of pants. - It should also be appreciated that the garment of
FIG. 1 can comprise any suitable fabric or fabrics, including for example, one or more of cotton, rayon, silk, wool or other natural fabrics, and one or more of polyester, nylon, lycra, and so forth. Similarly, it should be appreciated that the entirety or any portion of the fabric or fabrics can be dyed or otherwise colored using any conceivable color, image, pattern and so forth. Indeed, it is still further contemplated that any conceivable water proofing or other coating or additive can be added or impregnated into any or all of the fabric. Nevertheless, in preferred embodiments it is contemplated that at least the two sides of the garment (what would normally be considered an inside and an outside) will be different in appearance. That difference may well comprises the use of different fabrics, patterns or other colorations, the use of chest, sleeve, leg, hip or other auxiliary pockets, and so forth. Thus,FIG. 1 should be interpreted as being emblematic of all possible permutations, including for example a relatively slick, substantially water or wind repellant, less patterned fabric on one side, and a softer, less water repellant, relatively more patterned fabric on the other side. In particular,FIG. 1 should be interpreted as showing: (a) a garment wherein at least one of the sides is treated with a stain resistant composition; (b) a garment wherein the first side has a different color from the second side; (c) a garment wherein the first side has a different texture from the second side; and (d) a garment wherein the first side includes a different type of fabric from the second side. -
FIG. 2 shows a rear view of the garment ofFIG. 1 . In this particular example, a double layer of material is sewn together to form the back piece of thetrunk portion 5 of the outerwear garment seen inFIG. 1 . One side of the garment, which can be considered as comprising the top layer of material for purposes of discussion, has a mouth opening identified by 20 that leads to themain pocket 30 into which the remainder of the garment can be inserted.Optional straps 21 are depicted here as drawstrings that can be used to carry the resulting tote bag configuration of the garment. Although any suitable number, arrangement, length, and other configuration of straps can be used, thestraps 21 shown in this particular embodiment are threaded throughloop hole 22. - The
main pocket 30 can be positioned in any suitable functional position on the garment. In this particular embodiment,trunk portion base 6 forms a side wall of themain pocket 30. -
FIG. 3 is a plan view of the outerwear garment as it is being converted into the tote bag mode. Such conversion can be accomplished in any suitable manner, but is most preferably accomplished using a simple two step procedure as follows: first the user turns the outerwear garment over to reveal the mouth opening identified by 20 inFIG. 2 ; second, the user places his/her hand through the opening until she reaches the seam identified bytrunk portion base 6 as viewed inFIG. 2 , grabs hold of the material attrunk portion base 6 and pulls upward, thereby turning thesack portion 30 inside out. According to this procedure, thesleeves 4,truck portion 5, button hole track 2 andbutton 3 along with mouth opening 1 are all received down intosack portion 30 throughmouth opening 20. - In
FIG. 4 the garment has been converted into the tote bag, and is thereupon ready for use.Mouth opening 20 receivedsleeves 4,truck portion 5, button hole track 2 andbutton 3, along with mouth opening 1, and are all tucked down intomain pocket 30. In addition, it is especially desirable formain pocket 30 to have sufficient additional room to receive other items such as keys, eye wear and money pouches, while in the tote bag configuration. Sufficient room to store additional items is used herein to mean that while the garment is in the tote bag configuration the main pocket has additional carrying space of at least 500 cm3. More preferably the main pocket has additional carrying space of at least 1000 cm3, and most preferably at least 1000 cm3. - Also shown in
FIG. 4 , straps 21 can be used to carry the tote bag configuration of the garment, and can be adjusted for use as handles as seen inFIG. 3 . - To convert the tote bag back into a jacket, simply reach inside the tote bag and pull out the
sleeves 4 and theentire trunk portion 5, button hole track 2 andbutton 3 will unfold to reveal itself once again as an outerwear garment. You could then placedrawstrings 21 inside themouth opening 20 identified inFIG. 2 . The jacket is again now ready to be worn. -
FIG. 5 is a front view of the outerwear garment turned inside out and worn in reversible mode. By simply turning the jacket inside out, a user of this particular embodiment achieves a new look that includes interlock-stitching 50 alongsleeves 4 a and the entire border of the outerwear garment.Trunk portion 5 a receives the upper part of the body. Afastening track 51 withslider 52 is used to close the garment when said garment is being worn as an outerwear jacket. The inside back panel of the outerwear garment revealsmouth 20 identified inFIG. 2 that leads to sackportion 30 also identified inFIG. 2 . The inside back panel of the outerwear garment also revealsloop hole 22 and thestraps 21 which are threaded throughloop hole 22 and are used to carry the garment when said garment is converted to tote bag function. -
FIG. 6 is a rear view of the jacket ofFIG. 1 , with interlock stitching 50 visible as the border design andsleeves 4 a are used to receive arms into the garment. In this view,trunk portion base 6 now functions as the lower trunk portion oftrunk portion 60.Trunk portion 60 covers the rear of the upper body and presents a clean, smooth surface asmouth opening 20, Straps 21,loop hole 22 andsack portion 30 fromFIG. 2 are now completely concealed. - Thus, specific embodiments and applications of a reversible tote bag garment have been disclosed. It should be apparent, however, to those skilled in the art that many more modifications besides those already described are possible without departing from the inventive concepts herein. The inventive subject matter, therefore, is not to be restricted except in the spirit of the appended claims. Moreover, in interpreting both the specification and the claims, all terms should be interpreted in the broadest possible manner consistent with the context. In particular, the terms “comprises” and “comprising” should be interpreted as referring to elements, components, or steps in a non-exclusive manner, indicating that the referenced elements, components, or steps may be present, or utilized, or combined with other elements, components, or steps that are not expressly referenced. Where the specification claims refers to at least one of something selected from the group consisting of A, B, C . . . and N, the text should be interpreted as requiring only one element from the group, not A plus N, or B plus N, etc.
