Description
April 1941- L v. YOUNG 2,236,636
vsnnwrzn nuts on smcxs Filed June 21, 1939 Inventor A iiorneys Patented Apr- 1: 1941 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 'vENmA'rEn Pam's on. SLACKS 7 Louise v. Young, Tulsa, om. Application June 21, 1939, Serial No. 280,416
1 Claim.
This invention relates to improvement in trousers, slacks or the like, the general object of the invention being to provide means whereby portions of either leg of the garment can be separated so as to expose a limb for coolness and ventilation as well as the added comfort in allowing the freedom of the leg as high above the ankle or knee as desired.
Another object of the invention is to provide means for holding the leg in elevated position so that it will not touch the floor when the wearer is sitting down or kneeling or the like.
This invention also consists in certain other features of construction and in the combination and arrangement of the several parts to be hereinafter fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawing and specifically pointed out in the appended claim.
In describing the invention in detail, reference will be had to the accompanying drawing wherein like characters denote like or. corresponding parts throughout the several views, and in which- Figure 1 is a front view of a pair of trousers made in accordance with the principles of this invention, this view showing in full lines how one leg is opened and swung up and held in elevated, out-of-the-way, position.
Figure 2 is a fragmentary view of a leg of the trousers in open position.
Figure 3 is a detail sectional view through the cuif portion of a leg of the trousers, the section being on the line 3-3 of Figure 4.
Figure 4 is a fragmentary detail sectional view through the snap-fastener retained cufl, showing to advantage the slide fastener arrangement.
In these views the letter A indicates the garment which may be trousers, slacks or the like and in carrying out the invention a slitis formed in each leg and this slit has attached to its edges the fabric portions of the zipper fastener as shown at I, the slide ,of which is shown at 2. This slit and the fastener part passes through the cuff 3 of each leg and the cufl is held in appended claim.
raised position by the snap fasteners 4 placed one on each side of the slit. While the slit may be made wherever desired, I prefer to form said slit at the inner seam as shown in Figure 1 and to extend the slit to a point well above the knee as shown in Figure 1. j
Thus during hot weather the fastener can be moved to inoperative position so as to open the leg of the trousers or both legs and this will permit air to reach the leg and permit the freedom of the legs to any point desired up to the point where the slit ends. I also place a snap fastener part 5 in oradjacent a side pocket, as
shown in Figure l, which can be engaged by one of the parts 4 so as to hold the leg in folded or looped position as shown in dotted lines at 6 in Figure 1 to prevent the end of the leg from touching the ground when the wearer is sitting down, kneeling or the like. As shown the snap fasteners 4 are placed at the cuff so that they will be hidden from view when the cuif is in use.
It is thought from the foregoing description that the advantages and novel features of the invention will be readily apparent.
It is to be understood that changes may be made in the construction and in the combination and. arrangement of the several parts provided,
that such changes fall within the scope of the Havin described the invention, what is claimed as new is:
A garment of the trousers type including a pair of legs, each leg having a slit therein extending to a point above the knee, fastening means for closing the slit, each leg having a cufl? thereon through which the slit passes and snap fastener means for connecting the cuff portion to the leg portion when the cuff portion is in closed position, and a snap fastener part adjacent a side pocket for receiving enact the before-mentioned snap fastener parts for holding the leg in folded or loose position.
