Thesleeve 64 comprises elastomer and thus is resiliently stretchable so that abottle 66 is insertable into thesleeve 64. Thesleeve 64 is configured to rebound to removably engage thebottle 66 to thestrap 12. - In use, the
strap 12 is positioned on the user so that the hook andloop fastener 34 is positioned proximate to the second shoulder. The hook andloop fastener 34 is engaged so that thestrap 12 extends transversely from the second shoulder to proximate to an opposed hip of the user. An aerosol self-defense spray cannister 40 disposed in thefirst pocket 42 and an elongated self-defense weapon 62 disposed in thesheath 58 are available as needed. Thesecond pocket 44 and thesleeve 64 can be used to stow aphone 38 and abottle 66 respectively. - With respect to the above description then, it is to be realized that the optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of an embodiment enabled by the disclosure, 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 an embodiment of the disclosure.
- Therefore, the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the disclosure. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the disclosure 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 disclosure. In this patent document, the word “comprising” is used in its non-limiting sense to mean that items following the word are included, but items not specifically mentioned are not excluded. A reference to an element by the indefinite article “a” does not exclude the possibility that more than one of the element is present, unless the context clearly requires that there be only one of the elements.
