This invention relates to apparel and more particularly to a garment termed knickeralls, in some respects, resembling a pair of overalls whileyin others, it has a construction somewhat similar to knickers Worn by women pens that when proper protection is not er cannot be provided, a womans skirt will become caught and she will be badly injured.
Therefore one ob ect of the invention is to u 1 a q n u )rovine a Garment which eliminates the use of a skirt or into which a skirt may be tucked and thereby prevent danger of inJury when operating a machine of the type set forth above. y
Another object of the invention 1s to provide the garment with leg extensions which are formed with securing bands at their lower ends which may be fastened snugly about the leg just below the knee and thereby provide a neat appearance as well as retaining the lower ends of the baggy leg extensions snugly in place.
Another object of the invention is to provide a garment which will be Comfortable to wear as it may be sufliciently large to prevent binding and, at the same time, to canse the garment to .fit neatly about the waist and thereby add to its appearance and comfort.
AnotherA object of the invention is to supl- Aply pockets in the front of the garment and permit easy access to the pockets while, atthe same time, lirmly connecting the pockets and a portion of the front section of the garment between the pockets with a bib forming part of the garment.
Another object of the invention is to supplyY the garment with shoulder straps which will serve very eii'ectively to support the bib and will be prevented from accidentally slipping out of its proper place upon the shoulders of the wearer.
The invention is illustratedin the accompanying drawings, wherein:
Figure l is a perspective view showing the garment in use and looking at the front.
Figure 2 is a similar View showing aperson wearing the garment and looking at the back.
Figure 3 is an enlarged front elevation of the garment.
Figure 4 is a view showing the garmentin rear elevation.
Figure 5 is a fragmentary vertical sectional view taken through the front of the garment along the line 5 5 of Figure 3..
Figure 6 is a'fragmentary sectional View taken through the rear of the garment along the line 6-6 of Figure 4.
Figure 7 is a fragmentary sectional view taken through the rshoulder straps along the line 7-7 of Figure 4.
` The improved garment constituting the subject matter of this invention is formed of any. suitable fabric having snlicient strength to prevent it from being easilytorn `and includes similar side .sections sewedv together by seams 3 and l and shaped to dene leg cxtensions 5. The body portion and the leg extensions are suficiently full to permit easy movement of the wearer but at their lower ends the leg extensions are Agathered to remove fullness andv'secured to bands 6. These bands are of proper length to lit snugly about the legs of a wearer below'the knees and each has one end portion extended to provide a securing' tab Z in which are formed buttonholes 8 to engage buttons 9 sewedupon the other-,ends of the strips or bands in spaced relation to each other longitudinally there of. lt. will be readily understood that if the bands are too tight or too loose `when the garment is v.first worn,` the butt-ons maybe moved to such a position that the bands will fit snugly about the legs. Therefore, the lower ends of the leg extensions will be held in place and there will be no danger of them catching in parts of a machine about which a Y woman is working. The body portion and the leg extensions have suiicient fullness to be neat and attractive in appearance and in fact, are of' suticient fullness to permit ashort 'skirt to be tucked inside the body portion if the skirt is not removed when the overalls are put on.
In order to protect the front of a shirt there has been provided a bib 7 which extends upwardly from the front of the body portion of the garment and preferably carries a pocket 8, although the pocket may be omitted if so desired. The lower edge of the bib overlaps the front of the garment between the diagonal edges 9 thereof, which are cut in this manner to define pocket openings beneath the extended side portions of the bib, and a waistband 10 is sewed along the lower edge portion of the bib in overlapping relation to the npper edge of the body. Pockets 11 are disposed within the front portion of the side'sections below the waistband and each pocket includes a front wall 12 which is sewed along a diagonal edge 9 against the inner surface thereof,
f l, and a. rear wall 13 which extends beyond the front wall and has its upper edge portion fitted between the waistband 10 and the lower edges of the extended side portions of the bib. Facing` sheets 1i. which `correspond to the material from which the body portion and bib of' the garment are made, are sewed against the forward faces of the upper p0rtions of the rear walls 13 of the pockets to provide a good appearance and also to serve as reinforcements and prevent the garment from being quickly worn. After the pockets have been secured by stitching, buttonholes 15 are worked in the pockets and the ends of the waistband and bib and are intended to re- :f ceive buttons 16 by means of which the sides of the rear portions are releasably securedv to y the sides of the front portion.
In order to supportv the garment .and its bib when in use, there have been provided shoulder straps 17 which may be v.formed of any material desired, although fabric similar to that used for making the garment itself is preferably employed. These shoulder straps have their rear ends formed with buttonholes to receive the rear suspender buttons 18 and have their forward end portions passed through clips 19 to engage the front suspender buttons 20, and after being passed through the clips the forward ends of the suspender straps are adjustably secured by buckles 21. The suspenders are crossed at the bach, as shown in Figure 4L, and one carries a retainer strip 22 which permits thevsuspender strips to have sliding movement relative to each other but prevents them from moving out of proper crossed relation to each other.
In order to cause the garment to lit snugly about the waist the side portions above the pockets are folded inwardly, as shown at 24, to provide gussets which gradually increase in width toward their upper ends and serve to remove surplus fullness about the waist portion of the garment. After the gussets have been formed, a rea-r waistband 25 f similar to the waist band- 10 at the front is .sewed to the rear portion along its upper edge. The waistbands 10 and 25 provide a good finish for the waist portion of the garment and, in addition, greatly strengthen the garment and prevent it from being liable to be easily ripped.
lVhat is claimed is:
A garment of the chcnfacter specified comv prising a front portion having a bib thereon and having side portions cnt diagonally, a waistband reinforcing the bib at its juncture with the front portion and extending over the diagonal edges,'side pockets including front and rear walls, the front walls being attached at their top edges to the diagonal edges of the front portion and the rear walls extending above the front walls and the diagonal edges and attached to the waistband and side portions of the bib, an d facing covering the eX- posed portions of the rear walls.
In testimony whereof I affix my signature.
