COMBINATION SHIRT AND COAT Filed Nov. 8, 1944 INVIINTOR. I N ouagd/Oj e4 \l N y 6 4 z q JQWUL Patented June 10, 1947 COMBINATION SHIRT AND COAT Edward J. Schafer, Chicago, 111. Application November 8, 1944, Serial No. 562,428
This invention relates to a combined shirt and coat, and more particularly to such structure in which the front part may be positioned inside of the front portion of a pair of trousers, slacks, pajamas, skirt or the like, and the rear part may be positioned outside thereof.
As is well known many persons, especially in the summer time, leave the lower portion of their shirt entirely outside of their trousers, slacks, pajamas, skirt or the like, which is more comfortable, but at the same time is unsightly. For the sake of brevity, I will hereinafter use the term trousers as including slacks, pajamas, skirts and the like, as well as those garments generally understood as trousers or pants.
In the present invention I have provided a novel garment having the neatness of enabling the lower portions of the shirt front to be tucked or positioned inside of the upper part of the front portion of the trousers, and the lower portion of the rear to be positioned outside of the trousers with extensions also outside and extending forwardly, so that the front of the garment has the appearance of a shirt. and the rear and sides of the garment has the appearance of a coat. This combination adds greatly to the neat and pleasing appearance of the garment, and enables it to be Worn either as a work or lounging garment, or as a dress garment.
Among the objects of my invention is to overcome the disadvantages, and accomplish the advantages, referred to above.
A further object is to provide'a combined shirt and coat with a novel arrangement of shirt front, coat back and side extensions, the shirt front to be tucked inside of the trousers and the coat back and side extensions to remain outside.
Another object is to provide a novel arrangement of coat extensions.
Still another object is to provide a form of combined shirt and coat of novel and pleasing appearance, that enables a saving of cloth in each garment, one that is easy to manufacture, and one that readily adapts itself to a combination of different colors being used in the difierent parts.
Other objects, advantages and capabilities inherently possessed by my invention, will later more readily appear.
My invention further resides in the construction, combination and arrangement of parts illustrated in the accompanying drawings, and while I have shown therein a preferred embodiment, I wish it understood that the same is susceptible of modification and change without departing from the spirit of my invention.
3 Claims.
In the drawings:
Fig. 1 is a perspective view looking at an angle toward the front of a combination shirt and coat embodying my invention.
Fig. 2 is a rear elevation of the same showing the parts in extended position. i
Fig. 3 is a fragmentary front elevation of the samein position upon a wearer partially shown in dotted lines.
Fig. 4 is a fragmentary front elevation with one of the extensions shown in outwardly extended position. I
Fig. 5 is a side elevation and showing the up per portion of the wearers trousers with the parts in assembly position.
Fig. 6 is a fragmentary side elevation of a modified form of arrangement between the coat tail and the lower portion of the shirt section.
Referring more in detail to the drawing, my combination shirt and coat comprises in general the two front shirt portions or sections I and 2, and the coat portion or section consisting of the back 3, the two extensions 4 and 5 and the belt 6. The shirt portion 1 is formed with button holes 1 and the shirt portion 2 is provided with buttons 8. The'collar 9 extends along the upper edges of the shirt portitons l and 2 and the coat baok'3. Shirt sleeves l0 and II are provided of any desirable construction and they are sewed or otherwise secured partly into their respective shirt portions and partly into the coat back as shown in Fig. 2. The shirt portions I and 2 and the coat back 3 are connected together above the sleeves by any suitable or desirable in serts, overlaps or thelike I2 and I 3.
Below the sleeves the shirt portion 1 is stitched or otherwise secured to the coat back from the sleeve armhole at I4 to the point l5, and the shirt portion 2 is likewise stitched or secured to the coat back from IE to IT, the points l5 and I! being preferably at or near the belt '6. From the point IE to the bottom, the shirt portion I is unattached to and separate from the coat back 3 to form a free edge I8, and similarly the shirt portion 2 is unattached to the coat back from the point I! to the bottom to form a free edg I9.
The extension 4, which is an integral part of the coat back 3, is secured to the shirt portion I from the point I4 to the point l5 at the same time and by the same stitching that secures the shirt portion I and the coat back 3 together between these two points, which is also true of the extension 5 between the points l6 and I1. Also, the extensions 4 and 5 being integral with the coat. back 3, are unattached and separate from the shirt portions I and 2 from the points l and I1 respectively to the bottom; This construction, as will be understood, permits the lower portion of the shirt portions I and 2 to be positioned inside of the trousers and the lower portions of the coat back and the extension 4 and 5 outside of the trousers.
If desired the belt 6 may be extended at 20 and 2| a suitable distance beyond the two extensions 4 and 5 as shown in Fig. 2 to permit the belt ends to be secured together in front by a bow knot 22 (Fig. 3) or releasably fastened together in any desired manner, so as to hold the two extensions neatly against the shirt portions to "prevent them from flapping loose. Also any other suitable means may be used for holding the extensions from flapping loose as desired.
As seen in Figs. 3 and 5 the belt of the wearers trousers is indicated at 23. The belt 6, 'Z-Q'an'd 2|, may be directly over the belt 23, or be otherwise located as desired. In order to suit a variety of tastes the belt ends 20 and 21 may, if desired, be omitted, especially for hot weather wear, and the belt ends terminate at the points 15 and I1. The back portion :6 of the belt maybe of any desired construction with a buckle, double thickness, button or other artistic form as desired,
If desired the lower portion of the shirt sections may each be joined to the adjacent edge of the coat tail with vshirrs or other suitable connecting piece '33 having sufficient elasticity or fullness to straddle over the wearer's trouser belt to enable the bottom portions of the shirt sections to be tucked or positioned inside of the wearers trousers and the coal tail outside thereof. While the slit described earlier herein is preferred, the last described modification of Fig. 6 may be used where purchasers desire it.
From the above it will be understood that my combination shirt and coat may be used as a work garment, dress garment, a lounging garment with slacks, trousers, skirt or the like, or as a sleeping garment with the lower portion of pajamas. This invention also overcomes the undesirable remarks so often heard regarding persons going about on the streets with their shirt tails hanging out. Also my improved garment may be made in many different color schemes, in which many different combinations of colors for the different sections may be used as desired.
Having thus described my invention I claim:
1. A combination shirt and coat garment, comprising a pair of full length front shirt sections, means for detachably securing said shirt sections together at the front from the collar to below the waist line, a rear coat section, the longitudinal rear side edge of each of the shirt sections being 4 respectively secured by a seam to an adjacent portion of the coat section from the bottom of the arm hole to approximately the waist line and loose with relation thereto from the waist line to the bottom, whereby the bottom portions of the shirt sections may be positioned inside of the trousers and the lowerportion of the coat section positioned outside of the trousers, the front of the garment when worn having the appearance of a shirt from the collar to the waist line and the back of the garment having the appearance of a coat, said coat section having a pair of extensions extending forwardly over a portion of the shirt sections, said extensions tapering upwardly and rearwardly to a point below the arm pit.
2. A combination shirt and coat garment comprising, a pair of full-length front shirt sections having in their vertical front free edge portions buttons and button holes, a rear coat section sewed to the rear edges of the shirt sections from points directly below the central portion of the arm holes to approximately the waist line and from approximately the waist line to the bottom of the shirt sections being free of the latter so that the bottom portions of the shirt sections may be tucked inside of a lower garment and the coat tail left outside thereof, said shirt being backless from arm hole to arm hole and from the neck to the bottom of the coat tail, this back portion of the garment consisting of only a single thickness of material which constitutes the back of the coat section, and a forwardly extending extension on each side of the coat section from the bottom of the adjacent shirt section to above the waistline, said extensions also remaining outside of the lower garment.
3. A combination shirt and coat garment as claimed in claim 2, in which the front edges of said coat extensions stop short of the buttons and button holes along the front of the shirt sections when the latter are buttoned together to at all times leave part of the front portion of the shirt sections exposed to view from the neck to the waist line, and means for holding the coat extension close to the shirt sections.
