Abstract
A friction pad clothing support device that is attached to the waistband of a garment such as, pants, shorts, or skirt and increases the ability of the waistband to support the garment in the desired position. The front surface of the friction pad has a tacky surface that engages the body or the shirt of the wearer.
Description
- Styles and clothing change from one generation to the next and often change markedly from year to year. However, there are instances where the clothing was not significantly changed but, how the clothing is worn becomes the fashion statement.
- The waistline in pants is one area where the manner of wear has evolved. For instance Levi's™ has been manufacturing substantially the same 501™ jeans or denim pants, since 1873 and the California Gold Rush, however, how the pants are worn has changed. When the pants were first introduced, historical photographs show, the pants worn high, above the hips, with the waistband just below the naval. At present, both men and women wear the pants with the waistband riding on the waist or directly on the hipbones. The younger generations still wear the Levi's 501 jeans, but the waistband is worn below the hips or even lower.
- At whatever level a person decides to wear his or her pants, that person would like the article of clothing to stay where they put it. Unfortunately, this is not always the case, especially with persons who are challenged with narrow hips, a large waistline or with excess weight. The truth is, that as soon as they begin walking, gravity takes over, and their pants begin to fall down. The person may attempt to secure or elevate their pants using one or both of their hands but, this effort is typically fruitless, and they find themselves constantly raising the level of the waistband. This problem is exacerbated when the person engages in rigorous physical activity such as strenuous work, exercise or an athletic endeavor such as basketball or golf; these activities exert additional forces on the pants and they typically require the person to have their hands free. Use of one's hands to keep one's pants from falling down is burdensome and frustrating.
- Support of articles of clothing including pants has been a perennial problem and the attempted solutions are myriad.
- A belt worn over the waistband of the pants allows a person to adjust the pressure that the waistband exerts against the body. However, typically the pants will still ride down until the waistband, with belt, rests on the user's hipbones. If the pants are placed at a level below the hipbones, the belt is of little effect and the pants will end up near the person's feet unless the wearer intervenes.
- Suspenders such those shown in U.S. Pat. No. 322,480 to Potter or U.S. Pat. No. 1,926,751 to Mix are widely used and provide substantial support for the users pants. However, many users are self-conscious about the need to wear suspenders and attempt to conceal them under a jacket, sweater or with and un-tucked shirt.
- In some cases additional accoutrements have been installed into the waistbands of pants and skirts to increase the friction between the waistband the wearer's body or shirt. These include a waistband U.S. Pat. No. 2,590,616 to Heller, where a frictional means is added through the length of the waistband to obtain frictional retention of an engaged shirt. U.S. Patent Application 2007/0067889 by Spiewak et al. describes using friction pads sewn onto the tails of a police uniform shirt with corresponding pads sewn into the pants, to support the pants while under the weight of a service belt, carrying items such as a sidearm, handcuffs and a nightstick. Friction devices sewn, integrally formed, or adhesively attached to the inside of the waistband of pants is widely known in the associated art, they provide improved support of the wearer's pants, without the conspicuous nature of a belt or suspenders. However, friction devices are not included in most pants or skirts and when they are included they are a permanent feature of the garment.
- What is needed is a friction device that can be attached by the wearer to any garment having a waistband such as pants, or a skirt, which can also be removed by the wearer, and reinstalled in a different article of clothing.
- The present invention is a friction pad device that is attached to the waistband of any garment having a waistband such as, pants, shorts or a skirt and increases the ability of the waistband to support the garment in the desired position.
- The friction pad can be formed in any standard shape, such as a circle, oval, square, rectangle etc. Or can be formed into a custom shape representing something in nature, art or the profile of a company logo or trademark. The friction pad can be formed using a variety of materials, natural or synthetic, such as, but not limited to, rubber, foam rubber, visco elastic foam, ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA), suede leather, leather, neoprene or silicone. The friction pads can be formed having a uniform thickness across a section of the pad, or may be tapered to better engage the users body. The pads may be formed from a solid piece of the selected friction material, having a uniform density, or may be formed having a pocket or bladder filled with air or viscous liquid such as silicone gel. The pads may also be comprised of a combination of materials, such as, having a backing, with a friction material top cover and including a compressible filing such as cotton, polyester batting, foam rubber, visco elastic foam, etc.
- The wearer may permanently attach the friction pads to the waistband using a suitable adhesive, heat sensitive adhesive, or the friction pads maybe sewn into the garment. The friction pads may also be removably attached to the garment using a clip, clasp, hook and loop fastener, hook and eye, snaps, or button and buttonhole engagement. The buttonhole engagement is designed to use the buttons already in place on most high quality dress or suit pants, normally used to attach braces or suspenders. Removable friction pads allow the user to transfer a single set of friction pads to any pair of pants or skirt and customize the fit of the garment. The friction pads may also be removed prior to washing or dry cleaning.
- A permanently attached friction pad or a friction pad attached using, hook and loop fastener, hook and eye, snaps, or interior buttons, will not be visible or be evident in anyway to the casual observer; allowing the wearer to avoid the embarrassment sometimes caused by suspenders. The clip attachment will overlap the waistband of the garment, but can be concealed with a belt or jacket or can be camouflaged using paint, fabric, or other materials matching the wearer's garment.
- The friction pads will significantly increase the engagement of the waistband with body or shirt of the wearer and help maintain the garment in the desired position.
