Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to devices for embellishing or adjusting the length of pant legs and/or sleeves of clothing items.
- Some clothing items do not proportionally fit on many consumers. This is especially true for clothing items for infants and toddlers. For example, many items are too long in the legs or sleeves, but otherwise fit properly. Long pant legs pose some safety/tripping risks during walking or running. Folding the excess length can provide some temporary improvement, but the resulting cuffs eventually unfold. It is desirable to have clothing that fits properly without the cost and inconvenience of permanently altering clothing item, such as by a tailor. For example, a temporary yet secure means of adjusting pant leg length will enable use of some clothing items through many stages of a child's growth while avoiding tripping risk. The need for an improved device for providing adjustable pant leg and/or sleeve length is therefore needed.
- the present disclosure provides a method and device for shortening the length of a pant leg or a sleeve.
- the device also provides a cuff on the pant leg or sleeve, optionally having a contrasting style (e.g., color, texture and/or pattern) than the clothing item.
- the device comprises a semi rigid elastic band covered in fabric, wherein the fabric has a length that enables it to be folded with and over the distal end of a pant leg or sleeve.
- the semi rigid elastic band provides increased stiffness relative to the remaining portion of the device, but is not inflexible.

- the fabric is not itself elastic and an elastic band is sewn into or otherwise secured to the sleeve.
- the fabric comprises no integral elastic band and no semi-rigid portion.
- the stylish fabric can vary in length, color, style, and texture depending on consumers' desires and intended purpose (simply shortening pant legs, style, etc . . . ).
- the device has a length sufficient to allow a child to wear a pair of pants over several stages of youth by enabling successive adjustments of the length of the pant legs as the child grows over time.
- the present disclosure provides a device for adjusting the length of a pant leg or shirt sleeve, the device comprising a sleeve of material having a first end and a second end opposite the first end, and an elastic or semi-rigid portion at the first end for securing the device to the pant leg or shirt sleeve.

Description
- This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 62/190,299, filed Jul. 9, 2015, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference and relied upon.
- The present disclosure relates to devices for embellishing or adjusting the length of pant legs and/or sleeves of clothing items.
- Some clothing items do not proportionally fit on many consumers. This is especially true for clothing items for infants and toddlers. For example, many items are too long in the legs or sleeves, but otherwise fit properly. Long pant legs pose some safety/tripping risks during walking or running. Folding the excess length can provide some temporary improvement, but the resulting cuffs eventually unfold. It is desirable to have clothing that fits properly without the cost and inconvenience of permanently altering clothing item, such as by a tailor. For example, a temporary yet secure means of adjusting pant leg length will enable use of some clothing items through many stages of a child's growth while avoiding tripping risk. The need for an improved device for providing adjustable pant leg and/or sleeve length is therefore needed.
- The present disclosure provides a method and device for shortening the length of a pant leg or a sleeve. In some embodiments, the device also provides a cuff on the pant leg or sleeve, optionally having a contrasting style (e.g., color, texture and/or pattern) than the clothing item. In some embodiments, the device comprises a semi rigid elastic band covered in fabric, wherein the fabric has a length that enables it to be folded with and over the distal end of a pant leg or sleeve. In one embodiment, the semi rigid elastic band provides increased stiffness relative to the remaining portion of the device, but is not inflexible. Viewed another way, in one embodiment the cuff is a sleeve or tube of fabric that is at least partially elastic and configured to be secured over a distal end of a pant leg or sleeve. In some embodiments, the fabric is not itself elastic and an elastic band is sewn into or otherwise secured to the sleeve. In some embodiments, the fabric comprises no integral elastic band and no semi-rigid portion. The stylish fabric can vary in length, color, style, and texture depending on consumers' desires and intended purpose (simply shortening pant legs, style, etc . . . ). In some embodiments, the device has a length sufficient to allow a child to wear a pair of pants over several stages of youth by enabling successive adjustments of the length of the pant legs as the child grows over time.
- In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides a device for adjusting the length of a pant leg or shirt sleeve, the device comprising a sleeve of material having a first end and a second end opposite the first end, and an elastic or semi-rigid portion at the first end for securing the device to the pant leg or shirt sleeve.
- In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides a method for adjusting a length of a pant leg or a shirt sleeve, the method comprising sliding a first end of a sleeve of material over a distal end of the pant leg or shirt sleeve, shortening the length of the pant leg or shirt sleeve by rolling the distal end of the pant leg or shirt sleeve away from the distal end on itself, and folding the second end of the sleeve of material over the rolled distal end of the pant leg or shirt sleeve.
