Definitions
- the present invention relates to an improvement in an overcoat, in particular a raincoat, having flaps of material which are attached to the inside of the coat, detachable as the case may be, at the level of the waist, said flaps being cut in such a way that they can be brought into an operative position in which they resemble a pair of trousers and into an inoperative position in which they are positioned in the coat invisible from the outside.
- the flaps of material form an interconnected substantially rectangular strip, said flaps being attached to two opposite edges at the inside of the coat.
- the strip of material has two folds extending in a longitudinal direction and is extended at the bottom edge which is substantially at the same level as the bottom edge of the coat, with short parts having the shape of trouser legs, said parts being adapted to be folded upwardly and to be attached to the strip.
- the strip of material forms part of the lining of the coat at the back thereof, one longitudinal edge being permanently attached and the other longitudinal edge being detachable.
- Figure 1 shows a coat according to the invention in opened position as seen from the inside, the strip of material being in its inoperative position.
- Figure 2 shows the strip of material being detached from the one longitudinal edge and folded out, one of the parts forming the trouser legs being folded upwardly and the other part being folded downwardly.
- Figure 3 shows the strip of material in its operative position.
- the coat shown in the figures comprises a lining 1 which forms at the back 2 of the coat and from the waist 3 to the bottom edge 4 of the coat an interconnected substantially rectangular strip of material 5 which is attached to the inside of the coat along two opposite edges 6 and 7.
- the longitudinal edge 6 is permanently attached to the coat, the longitudinal edge 7 being detachable by means of snap buttons 8.
- An elastic band 9 has been provided at the top edge 3 having button holes 10, 11 at its ends, said button holes being adapted to be buttoned to the buttons 12, 13 at the inside of the coat.
- the strip of material 5 comprises two longitudinal heavy folds 16 and 17 (Fig. 3) which are extended at their bottom edge 18 which is at substantially the same level as the bottom edge' 4 of the coat, into the extended parts 14, 15 respectively forming short trouser legs.
- the strip of material in reality does not form a pair of trousers, said strip has a resemblance to a pair of trousers due to the shape of the fold. This is an advantage for gentlemen wearers since the garment is airy in warm weather and also for lady wearers because the upper and under garments are not crushed; yet a sufficient protection against rain is guaranteed.
- the strip of material 5 must form the back part2 of the coat lining, no hinder will be met by the said parts if they have become wet and are put in their inoperative position during riding on a bicycle or the like since said parts do not contact the legs.
- the parts 14, 15 can be fastened in their folded position to the strip 5 by means of snap buttons 19.
- a raincoat comprising a lower back portion having a waistline covering portion, lower body and leg covering portions, a flap substantially coextensive in length and width with the said lower back portion, said flap being connected along two opposite longitudinal edges to the inner side of the back part of the coat from about the waistline thereon downwardly and otherwise unattached to the back portion, at least one of said connections being releasable, said flap at the central part of the bottom thereof being provided with two depending tubular portions, each of said tubular portions being connected along a part of its upper circumference to spaced portions of the bottom of the flap, said tubular portions in the operative position extending below the flap so as to look like the legs of trousers projecting downwardly beneath ice the coat, and adapted to be secured in an inoperative position in which they are folded upwardly inside the coat, means for securing said tubular portions in the inoperative position.
