Description
- The present application is related to and claims priority to U.S. Provisional 62/610,910 filed Dec. 27, 2017 and pending U.S. Non-Provisional patent application Ser. No. 16/013,894 filed Jun. 20, 2018, which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety.
- The following includes information that may be useful in understanding the present disclosure. It is not an admission that any of the information provided herein is prior art nor material to the presently described or claimed inventions, nor that any publication or document that is specifically or implicitly referenced is prior art.
- The present invention relates generally to the field of articles of clothing and more specifically relates to slings.
- Many people lead active lifestyles that prevent carrying essential items. Clothing provides pockets that are too small to allow for a user to carry all their personal items. Further, personal items may easily fall out of a pocket, especially for the user leading an active lifestyle. Carriers such as purses and backpacks can be bulky and uncomfortable to take on a run, walk, jog, etc. Wearable straps having pockets that are already known in the art do not properly secure and may be unintentionally misplaced from active movement. This may be inconvenient for the user having to stop and fix the placement of the strap on their body.
- Recent trends in clothing have provided fewer places to carry necessary personal items. Suits and slacks being more closely fitted have less tolerance for the carrying of personal articles in pockets. Trends away from men's suits to more casual attire have created problems in providing adequate places to carry usual and ordinary personal supplies. Shirts are constructed with no pockets at all. Trousers are closely fitted, so that pockets become useless. The problem has been recognized by the development and marketing of men's shoulder bags or other carriers which are intended primarily for the use with ordinary personal materials which an individual usually carries.
- Further, as trending technology caters more to speed and immediate convenience, people are typically much more on the move and go. As a result, men and women are moving faster through every day life. As technology expands, so does the various types of hardware needed to utilize tomorrow's technology. For example, it is not uncommon for a 25-year old male to carry with him a smartphone, headphones, a charger for the smartphone, a wallet or money clip, and keys to gain access to various doors. As a consequence of today's fast paced life, this 25-year old male is carrying with him a multitude of personal items. These items may be carried in the pockets of his pants or perhaps in a backpack or other carrier. This leads to discomfort when moving around while carrying too many objects. A suitable solution is needed.
- U.S. Pat. No. 3,931,917 to Donal R. Zellmer relates to a personal materials carrier. The described personal materials carrier includes a personal materials carrier is constructed of a curved band of material having a frontal diagonal chest-overlying portion, a shoulder-overlying portion connected to the chest-overlying portion at an angle to cause the chest-overlying portion and shoulder-overlying portion to lie flat, a back portion connected to the shoulder portion at an angle and a waist portion connected to the back portion. The bottom of the chest-overlying portion and a front of the side portion are joined together substantially perpendicularly in completion of the band. Pockets on the chest-overlying portion open inward and upward, and pockets near an upper extremity of the chest portion open upward. Pockets on the side portion open upward, and a pocket at the forward edge of the side portion opens rearward within the band.
- In view of the foregoing disadvantages inherent in the known personal item carrier art, the present disclosure provides a novel sling useful for carrying various personal items (also known as C2-SLING PRO).
- The general purpose of the present disclosure, which will be described subsequently in greater detail, is to provide a sling including a comfortable and adjustable strap having a plurality of pockets easily accessible for a user, particularly when the user is active. The sling may comprise a main strap having a front-side, a back-side, and a plurality of pockets which may be integrated across the front-side. The main strap may be wearable over a shoulder and across a chest of the user. Further, an armpit strap may be placed under an arm of the user and may be useful to secure the main strap about the user. The plurality of pockets (or compartments) may be strategically sized and dimensioned to accommodate a variety of personal items (i.e., cell phone dimensions). Further, the plurality of pockets may include zipper and hook-and-loop fasteners for easy opening and closing. The main strap may be adjustable for a comfortable fit.
- An article carrying sling useful for carrying multiple items when a user is in motion is disclosed herein. The article carrying is attachable to a user for carrying multiple items and includes a sling assembly with multiple straps for carrying multiple items by the user, the user having a shoulder and a torso. The user may be defined by having a front, a back, a left side, and a right side. The sling may generally comprise: a main strap which may have a first-end, a second-end, a front side, a back side, and a first length measured between the first-end and the second-end. The main strap may be sized and dimensioned to be worn over the shoulder on one of the left side and the right side, and about the front, the other of the left side and the right side, and the back of the torso of the user. The main strap is configured to carry multiple items. The main strap may include a strap couple configured to couple the first-end to the second-end.
- Also included may be a support strap of the sling which may have a third-end, a fourth-end, a second length measured between the third-end and the fourth-end; the support strap sized and dimensioned to extend from the front side of the main strap, about the one of the left side and the right side of the torso, and to the back side of the main strap. The support strap may include a front couple and a back couple, the front couple affixed to the support straps proximate the third-end and configured to couple with the front side of the main strap, the back couple affixed to the support strap proximate the fourth-end and configured to couple the back side of the main strap. A secondary support strap may further be included in the article carrying sling.
- The sling may further include a carrier assembly may have a fifth-end, a sixth-end, and a third length measured between the fifth-end and the sixth-end. The carrier assembly may include a carrier body configured to attach to the main strap and having a plurality of storage compartments affixed to the carrier body, each of the plurality of storage compartments configured to stow at least one of the multiple items.
- A method of using the sling for carrying multiple items is also disclosed herein. The method of using the sling for carrying multiple items may comprise the steps of: providing the sling for carrying items; positioning the sling for carrying items over the shoulder and about the torso of the user; adjusting a main strap and a support strap of the sling; placing at least one item inside at least one compartment of the sling; and wearing the sling and having ready-access to the various items retained within the compartments of the sling.
