Definitions

  • This invention pertains generally to the field of clothing accessories. More particularly, the invention relates to a collar stay for a shirt collar. The invention also relates to a garment comprising a pair of collar stays.
  • Collar stays are rigid strips of material which are received within pockets or channels on the underside of a shirt collar to straighten or stiffen a collar.
  • the collar stays help to maintain the position of the collar such that both sides of the collar appear symmetrically upright with respect to the body of the shirt.
  • Collar stays are typically formed from plastic or metal. Shirts are usually sold with a pair of plastic collar stays which are shaped and dimensioned to fit within the collar pockets or channels of that particular shirt. The collar stays need to be removed prior to washing of the garment, and as a result the user ends up with multiple pairs of plastic stays of varying different shapes and dimensions. After washing and ironing, the user has to search through the multiple pairs of plastic stays in order to identify the pair having the correct shape and dimensions required for each particular shirt. Plastic collar stays also easily deform and are unable to adequately secure the collar in the desired position after a few uses. Plastic collar stays therefore have a short life expectancy and need to be replaced.
  • Metal collar stays are usually formed from stainless steel or brass. There are a number of different metal collar stays available, such as for example magnetic collar stays, extended collar stays and extendable collar stays.
  • Magnetic collar stays such as those available from StiffiesTM (www. stiffies. co .uk) or described in US-A-2008/0295218, typically comprise a magnetic collar stay portion together with a separate magnet button which in use is positioned inside the shirt in order to draw the points of the collar towards the shirt or band of the collar to straighten and control the collar.
  • the overall visual effect of the magnetic collar stays can appear unnatural as the points of the collar are pulled in tightly towards the band of the collar and the magnetic stays do not provide a collar having a natural crisp inverted "V" shape.
  • the magnetic collar stays comprise two separate components there is an increased risk that one of the components may become misplaced while the garment is being cleaned.
  • Extendable metal collar stays such as for example the CleverfitTM (e.g. available from www.cleverfitstay.com) are extendable prior to insertion into a particular shirt to match the required dimensions of the collar pocket.
  • the extendable metal collar stay is however complex and relatively expensive to manufacture.
  • Extended collar stays such as for example the Stiff Collar StayTM (available from www. stiffco Uarstay.com) or as described in US-A-2012/0023640, is intended to be positioned in use to extend along the entire length of the fold line between the band of the collar and the collar.
  • the extended collar stay is, however, large, cumbersome and difficult to transport without damaging or deforming.
  • the present inventors have devised a collar stay, which addresses the aforementioned shortcomings of the prior art.
  • a collar stay for providing improved form and/or support to a collar of a garment, the stay comprising:
  • a method for the manufacture of a collar stay as defined above, which method comprises either: providing a sheet material for use in making the collar stay, punch cutting the sheet material to the shape of the collar stay and optionally finishing; or
  • a garment comprising:
  • a collar comprising:
  • each channel extends from or near a point adjacent the front edge of the collar;
  • each collar stay comprising:
  • the present invention has the advantage that the collar stay provides form and/or support beyond the area immediately adjacent the front edge of the collar.
  • the present invention has the advantage that the collar stay provides form and/or support to the area of the collar adjacent to a substantial portion of, or the entirety of, the peripherally extending outer edge of the collar.
  • the present invention in a preferred embodiment, has the advantage that the collar stay is adjustable, optionally repeatedly adjustable, by the user to provide the desired form and/or support according to the individual preferences of the user.
  • the present invention has the advantage that the collar stay provides sufficient form and/or support to the collar for multiple uses without deformation.
  • the present invention has the advantage that the collar stay is discrete and easily transportable without risk of damage to the collar stay.

  • the elongate stiffening member has a length of one of two or three lengths and selected from 2", 2.25", 2.5" or 2.75", still more preferably 2.5" or 2.75".
  • the actual length of the elongate supporting portion may be calculated from the above ratios (e.g. from about 4 cm to about 20 cm), but is preferably about 7 cm to about 15 cm, more preferably about 10 cm to about 14 cm, e.g. about 12 to 13 cm.
  • the collar stay of the invention is preferably a generally flat (and optionally planar or shaped) article. It preferably has a thickness of up to 5 mm and may vary in thickness at different parts of the collar stay.
  • the stiffening portion may have an average thickness of 5 or 10% or up to 20% more than the supporting portion, but preferably the thickness of the collar stay is generally consistent, e.g. within 5% or less (e.g. zero or negligible variance).
  • the thickness is from 1 to 4 mm, e.g. at least 2 or 2.5 mm and up to about 3 mm.
  • the elongate portions have any suitable width, which is typically up to about 1.5 cm and typically 0.75 to 1.25 cm, e.g. about 1 cm.
  • each of the elongate stiffening and supporting portions are linear.
  • the elongate stiffening portion will generally be linear.
  • the supporting portion may in addition or in the alternative to extending generally linearly in an elongate manner along the supporting axis extend in a transverse direction to define a transverse portion of the collar stay and in particular of the elongate supporting portion.
  • the transverse portion is generally located in the space between the stiffening axis and the supporting axis.
  • the transverse portion may be a transverse extension of the elongate supporting portion or may be an elongate shape of the supporting portion following an elongate route via a transverse portion, for example by the elongate portion defining a V-shape or a zig-zag shape, an S-shape or a kink, or a multiple or combination of such shapes.
  • the elongate supporting portion has a transverse portion defining a U or V shape in the elongate supporting portion, which is preferably at a proximal portion thereof (i.e. proximal to the stiffening portion).

  • the elongate supporting portion provides an increase in downward pressure provided to the stiffening portion into the collar and the transverse portion allows the shaping effect to be extended about the wing of the collar to enable cleaner looking collar and more reliable control of the collar shape.
  • the collar stay may be rigid in a planar or pre-formed and shaped configuration, it is preferable that the collar stay is formed of a malleable material that is self-supporting and shape-retaining so that the user may shape (and optionally re-shape) the stay prior to use and/or in situ to a desired look and for a desired shirt article.
