Description
Dec. 8, 1953 P. FRIEDMAN MANS UNDERGARMENT Filed Oct. 16, 1951 Patented Dec. 8, 1953 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE 2,661,738 MANS UNDERGARMENT Philip Friedman, New York, N. Y. Application October 16, 1951, Serial No. 251,506
1 Claim. 1
This invention is an improvement in mens underwear; especially shorts or trunk for men and boys.
The chief object of my invention is to provide a pair of trunks or shorts of the type set forth in my Patent No. 2,549,374, granted April 17, 1951, designed to give comfort in use, and adapted to serve as a suspensory for the external organs at the crotch of the wearer.
Other object and the advantages of the invention are made clear in the following specification, and the drawings show a preferred embodiment of the article. But this disclosure is explanatory only and details set forth herein may be altered without departure from the essential characteristics of the improvement as defined in the appended claim.
On the drawings:
Figure 1 shows the completed article;
Figure 2 i a plan view of the parts for the front of the garment;
Figure 3 is a plan view of the piece for the back;
Figure 4 illustrates a detail; this figure being a side view of the front of the garment.
The parts of the article comprise a back piece I of full width, and the front is made of two identical pieces 2 and 3. These pieces are united along the side edges 4. They are unattached along the concave edges 5 and 6, which leave the openings 7 for the legs; and they further are sewed along the concave lower edge 8 of the part I and the recessed or concave bottom edges 9 of the parts 2 and 3. The front pieces 2 and 3 have adjacent edges I0, the lower portions II of which diverge from each other in a downward direction. The edges I0 are both hemmed with strips I2 and I3 over their full length, including the portions II. These strips are doubled along the middle so that the folds thereof cover the pieces 2 and 3 on the inside and outside along the edges I 0, and the opposite edges of the strips are turned inward and stitched fast to the pieces 2 and 3, as indicated at Id. The hem strips I2 and I3 are stitched together along their upper and lower end portions but are unattached between said ends to leave an opening I5. The edges I0 with the lower portions II are inserted into the longitudinal folds of the strips I2 and I3 as far as said edges will go.
The upper end portions of strips I2 and I3 are sewed to one another as illustrated at I6 with the strip I2 outside of the strip I3. The two hemming strips are not superposed but ofiset so that each is closer to one side of the garment than the other. At the lower parts I I of the edges I0. the strips I2 and I3 and the pieces 2 and 3 are sewed together with the three rows of longitudinal stitch I1 and the transverse diagonal stitch I8. The result is to produce a bulge I9 (Figure 4) in the lower part of the garment in front, giving the effect of a support or suspensory, and the opening I5 lies between the sewing I6 and the stitches I 8. The garment can be lined with a' waist band 20, with an elastic band inside if desired; and the edges of the leg openings I can be hemmed as indicated at 2|.
The article is thus seen to be simple, made of few parts, and easily made up. It is easy to wear and calculated to give the wearer great comfort of a high degree.
Having described my invention, what I believe to be new is:
A garment comprising a back piece and front pieces secured together at the sides, the garment being open at the top, said pieces having unsecured edges at the sides adjacent the lower parts to leave openings for the legs and concave edges joined together at the bottom of said back and front pieces between said openings, the front pieces having adjacent edges the lower portions of which diverge, folded strips hemming said edges and each secured thereto along the entire length of said edges, one of said strips overlying the other, said strips being secured together adjacent their upper and lower ends and to the adjacent parts of said front pieces, the overlying strip along said lower portions being offset laterally beyond the other strip, said front pieces and said strips bulging outward along said lower I portions, the strips and front pieces being unattached between the upper ends of the strips and said lower portions, to form an opening, the front pieces and strips being stitched together transversely adjacent the lower end of said opening.
PHILIP FRIEDMAN.
