UNITED STATES ABNER S. HAIGHT, OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK.
UNDER-=GARIVIENT.
$PECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 370,781, dated October 4, 1887.
Application filed July 5. 1887. Serial No. 243,326. (No model.)
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ABNER S. HAIGHT, of
Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of I New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Under-Garments, of which the following is a full, clear, and exact description, whereby any one skilled in the art can make and use the same.
My invention relates particularly to underdrawers and the like for children-s wear; and the object of my invention is to provide a garment the body of which is made of stockinet or like knitted material, while the band is pro vided with means of adjustment to different sizes.
To this end my improvement consists in an under-garment the body of which is made of stockinet or like knitted material, and which is provided with a band secured to the edge of the body part, as by stitching, the parts heingjoined together without gathering either the band or the body part, and the said waistband having a plural number of button-holes, as is more particularly hereinafter described, and pointed out in the claim.
Referring to the drawings, Figure 1 is a view of a pair of childrens drawers that are made in the old and common methodthat is, are gathered at the waist and have a waistband stitched thereto. Fig. 2 is a like view of a pair of under-drawers that embody my improvement.
It has been the practice in making undergarments of knitted material, as stockinet, to gather the material at the waist, and to secure to this gathered part a waistband, the length of'which determines the size of the garment, and such a waistband has usually been provided, particularly in drawers that are for childrens wear,with button-holes at each end, by whichthe garment is secured'to the waist. In using such a garment it often becomes necessary, after wearing it for a short time, to provide a longer waistband to adapt it to the changing size in growing. It often occurs that in order to obtain a garment with a waistband denotes the body part of a garment that is i made of stockinet or like knitted material; a, the edge that is gathered before attaching it to the wastband I), usually by stitching it on.
In order to provide a garment with an adjustable waistband, I leave the body part a perfectly flat as to the upper edge and stitch or similarly fasten thereto a waistband, c, leaving the body part of the garment substantially ungathered, as shown in Fig. 2 of the drawings. In this waistband and near the opposite ends are made a plural number of button-holes, d, the size of the garment being determined by the distance between the inner button-holes, this size referring to the body part of the garment adapted to fit the average child of a certain age, while by using the outer button-holesthegarmentmay be adj ustedabout the waist of a child of a size somewhat larger. My improved garment last described is made with less labor than is the old style, and possesses the peculiar advantages of use of a plural number of button-holes located at the ends of each section of the waistband c.
I am aware that it is notnew to provide clothing with a number of buttons to allow for a close or loose adjustment of the garment about the person, and such a feature of adjustability I do not, broadly, claim.
I claim as my invention-- The within-described under-garment, consisting of a body part, a, made of stockinet or .like knitted material, and having a waistband,
c, sewed to the ungathered edge of the garment, and provided at each end of the section of the waistband with a plural number of button-holes, d, all substantially as described.
