Benefits of technology

The patent text describes a new line of clothing with several technical features. These features include padded knees, sealable underarm openings for ventilation, and light reflective strip-panels for high visibility at night. These features make the clothing more comfortable, well-fitted, and easy to see in the dark.

Problems solved by technology

Construction wear requires extraordinary attention to durability.
Abrasive contact, such as prolonged kneeling on rough surfaces, or the lifting of heavy objects using body leverage, can easily tear normal garments, or precipitate a rapid deterioration of their integrity.

Abstract

Disclosed is a garment comprising a hooded-coat and overalls designed for improved durability and comfort. The garment is waterproof throughout. The coat has an outer layer of Kevlar fabric in the abdominal region, the outer edges of the sleeves, and along the hem. The overalls have an outer layer of Kevlar fabric on the front of the legs and on the seat. The hood and coat sections each have light reflective stripes for greater visibility and safety. There are also built in knee pads, pockets, and openings for comfort, storage, and ventilation. The garment is particularly well suited for outdoor workers exposed to weather extremes and hard, abrasive contact with the environment.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]Not applicable.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]This invention relates generally to new and useful improvements in a hooded-coat and overalls combination for protection from the elements.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0003]There are a wide variety of garments designed to insulate wearers from adverse weather conditions. However, different uses of weather garments demand different designs and materials. Construction wear requires extraordinary attention to durability. Abrasive contact, such as prolonged kneeling on rough surfaces, or the lifting of heavy objects using body leverage, can easily tear normal garments, or precipitate a rapid deterioration of their integrity. Not only must construction garments hold up to high shear forces, they also must permit flexibility. Weather garments that insulate without permitting the worker the mobility to perform his job have no value. There is a need for weather gear for outdoor workers that not only holds...
