Definitions
- Pantyhose type garments have become increasingly popular because pantyhose eliminates the need for stocking supporters, such as garter belts, garter fasteners and girdles. Therefore, pantyhose have become very popular for wear with tight fitting clothing, such as slacks, since there are no garter fasteners to form objectionable bulges in clothing.
- tightness or close fitting of the gamient there is a difficulty of removing the pantyhose when it is necessary to dance with bare feet during dance practice and then to change back to covered feet when shoes are worn.
- An open-sole pantyhose garment for wearing with exercise and dancing covers the lower body of a wearer.
- the garment has a top section with two leg portions wherein each leg portion includes a vertical seam along the leg portion.
- Each leg portion includes a foot portion that encircles the wearer's foot and defines an opening on the sole through which the wearer's foot can protrude.
- Figure 1 is a front perspective view of the pantyhose of the present invention.
- Figure 2 is a rear perspective view of the pantyhose of the present invention.
- Figure 3 is an enlargement view of the bottom of the leg (ankle) portion with the foot portion covered.
- Figure 4 is an enlargement view of the bottom of the leg (ankle) portion with the foot uncovered.
- Figure 1 shows a front perspective view and Figure 2 shows a rear perspective view of the pantyhose garment 10 of the present invention positioned on the legs and feet of a wearer.
- a novel foot portion of pantyhose 10 maintains the tautness in the foot and leg portions of the natural and more comfortable foot design than can be obtained with prior art and further pennits the user to wear a wide variety of shoe styles.
- Pantyhose 10 is particularly suited for use when worn with dance costumes by women.
- the pantyhose is generally designated by numeral 10 and includes leg encompassing stockings or stocking tubes 13 with upper portions 14 defining a parity gamient and lower portions 15 to the toes.
- the stocking tubes 13 can be constructed in a conventional manner and of conventional knitted elastic fabric material with an elastic waistband being provided on the upper end of the pantyhose.
- the two stocking tubes can be connected together in a conventional manner.
- Such pantyhose structures can be conventional and can be constructed in a conventional manner and are associated with the wearer in a conventional manner.
- the pantyhose includes a seam 16 that runs vertically down the back of each leg.
- the pantyhose includes waistband 17.
- the seam can be a sewn seam that joins two ends of a single fabric to each other into a tubular leg portion.
- the seam can also be formed from a seamless hosiery by bunching a portion of the fabric and sewing tlirough the bunch to fonn an appearance of a seam.
- the fabric can be bunched into an amount that is about two millimeters in diameter running the length of the leg.
- a portion of the sole of the pantyhose has an aperture 20 or opening on each foot that is sufficiently sized to allow the foot portion 18 of the pantyhose 10 to slide over the toes and foot of the wearer and be slid up to the ankles of the wearer.
- the aperture 20 can have a diameter of about three or four centimeters in an unstretched state. This allows the wearer to be barefoot while not having to remove the pantyhose. When desired, the wearer can then put the foot portion 18 back on the wearer's feet.
- the aperture can be constructed of conventional knitted elastic fabric material with an elastic band 26 around the aperture.
- the aperture is sufficiently finished to prevent runs under normal use.
- the seam can extend from aperture 20 to waistband 17 or merely a portion of that distance.
- Figure 4 shows the foot uncovered and the foot portion 18 bunched about the ankle of a wearer.
- the seam on the stocking allows a person, such as a dance instructor, to better evaluate whether the dancer's legs are properly perforating a dance step. Such an evaluation is difficult with a seamless stocking.
- the seam allows one to view a dancer's turnout.
- to detennine if her legs when she does a plie (bends down so that her knees are to her right and left) to detennine if she has perfect turnout.
- Perfect turnout is for someone who can bend and have her knees go out to the side as oppose to in front of her. Perfect turnout is an important characteristic for one who achieves success as a professional dancer. If one does not have a good turnout, one usually cannot progress to a high level of dance, such as a professional.
- the seamed convertible stocking allows the dancer to participate in a variety of dance classes, such as ballet and modem or jazz, in series without having to change her clothes and tights between sessions. Also, the seamed convertible tight can make a dance teacher's work easier. The teacher can view turnout during a ballet session. After the ballet class, a modem or jazz dance session can begin immediately allowing for a more efficient use of the dance teacher's time. The dancer can take off her ballet shoes, pull her feet tlirough the apertures and begin the jazz or modern dance session with bare feet.
- dance classes such as ballet and modem or jazz
- the hosiery garment can be made by conventional methods of manufacture, such as the methods disclosed in U.S. Patent 6,047,571, issued to Juniman, U.S. Patent 3,449,932, issued to Fillmore et al; U.S. Patent 3,711,866, issued to Vorberg; U.S. Patent 3,777,681 to Horita; and U.S. Patent 3,808,842 to Fisher et al.
