To provide for a cover all for trousers that covers the front and the sides of standard trousers and that can be attached using hook and loop straps for easily putting them on and off.
In order to do so, the invention comprises a piece of clothing having two cover up legs, and wherein each of the cover up leg is configured so as to wrap around a front portion and side portions of a user's legs. The cover up for trousers has a plurality of hook or loop straps to tie it around a user's legs, and releasably attach onto complementary hook or loop attachment patches.
In a preferred embodiment, there is at least one cargo pocket.

There are additional features of the invention that will be described hereinafter and which will form the subject matter of the claims appended hereto.
In this respect, before explaining at least one embodiment of the invention in detail, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited in its application to the details of construction and to the arrangements of the components set forth in the following description or illustrated in the drawings. The invention is capable of other embodiments and of being practiced and carried out in various ways. Also, it is to be understood that the phraseology and terminology employed herein are for the purpose of description and should not be regarded as limiting.
As such, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the conception, upon which this disclosure is based, may readily be utilized as a basis for the designing of other structures, methods and systems for carrying out the several purposes of the present invention. It is important, therefore, that the claims be regarded as including such equivalent constructions insofar as they do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
These together with other objects of the invention, along with the various features of novelty which characterize the invention, are pointed out with particularity in the claims annexed to and forming a part of this disclosure. For a better understanding of the invention, its operating advantages and the specific objects attained by its uses, reference should be made to the accompanying drawings and descriptive matter which contains illustrated preferred embodiments of the invention.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

A cover up for trousers (10) consists in a piece of clothing having two cover up legs (12). Each cover up leg (12) has enough material to wrap around the front and sides of a user's regular trousers (14), leaving the back of the user's regular trousers (14) exposed.
The cover up legs (12) have a plurality of hook or loop straps (16) to tie the cover up for trousers (10) around a user's regular trousers (14), and releasably attach onto complementary hook or loop attachment patches (17). The cover up for trousers (10) has at least one cargo pocket (18), at least one opening (20) to reach through to pant pockets (not shown), and at least one utility loop (22) to hang tools therefrom. There is a zipper opening (24) to reach to the pant's (14) zipper (not shown)
Certain optional features are purely for aesthetic such as fake waist button (26) and belt straps (27). The fabric is sturdy and easy to clean. There are of course many types of printed designs and corporate logos (such as hardware store or tool companies) that can be printed on the cover up for trousers (10).
With respect to the above description then, it is to be realized that the optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of the invention, to include variations in size, materials, shape, form, function and manner of operation, assembly and use, are deemed readily apparent and obvious to one skilled in the art, and all equivalent relationships to those illustrated in the drawings and described in the specification are intended to be encompassed by the present invention.
Therefore, the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the invention. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the invention to the exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the invention.
