A clip assembly having first and second pivoting gripping members that are locked in gripping engagement to a tarp or other material and attached to a rope or shock cord. The gripping members include jaws and arms that are joined by a pivot connection so that the jaws are forced into engagement when the arms are pressed together. At least one of the arms is formed of a resiliently flexible material so that the arm bends as the jaws are forced into gripping engagement. There is a hook or other attachment portion on one of the arms that the arms are locked in the compressed position when a portion of the cord is passed therethrough. The hook may include a primary opening for receiving a bight of a rope and a secondary opening for receiving a hook on the end of a shock cord.

An athletic pant that includes an area of compressive fabric disposed in a position on either pant leg that will surround the athlete's knee when the pants are worn. The area of compressive fabric in each pant leg also includes a pair of pockets positioned to lie on either side of the athlete's knee. The pockets can be opened to receive a support and closed to secure the support therein, whereby the support restricts lateral movement of the athlete's knee. If the athletic pants are to be used for ice hockey, the pants may also include connectors disposed on the outer surface of the pant legs for the connection of hockey socks.

A fabric attaching clip (10) consisting of a garter grip button end (20) attached to a loop tape strap (24) positioned on an outer surface of a fabric (26). A garter grip wireform (22) is attached to a hook and loop tape strap (30) that is positioned on an inner surface of the fabric, aligning with the garter grip button end (20) and tightly engaged with the fabric drawn compressably between. The fabric attaching clip (10) permits fabric, to be swagged by gathering the fabric with the loop tape strap, which has the end threaded into the wireform and by pulling the extending end for adjustment. The loop tape strap (24) is joined to the hook and loop tape strap (30) for closure therebetween. A theme decoration (38) having a hook tape segment (40) is attached on a front surface of the loop tape strap (30), providing both a decorative effect to a table and covering the clip (10).

The present invention is a short member including garters that extend through sleeves positioned on the front of the short member. The integral jock support member may also include a pocket portion attached to a front portion of the short, which is configured to house a protective groin cup and support members positioned adjacent to the pocket portion. A bib may be attached to the waistband of the short member.

A norconstricting pantyhose and a corresponding pantyhose-holding undergarment. Nonconstricting pantyhose of the present invention is any type of hose that has a hip and waist portion with nonconstricting upper portion so that the upper portion of the nonconstricting pantyhose comfortably or snuggly stays on the corresponding portion of the body of the wearer by means of hose-holding devices on the corresponding pantyhose-holding undergarment. The pantyhose-holding undergarment of the present invention is a bra, camisole, slip, or the like plus a plurality of pantyhose-holding devices thereon.

Shirt stays that contain two elongate straps so that they are designed and have the ability to be both disconnected and reconnected are disclosed. The end of one strap is designed to be connected to a shirt and the other end of the strap is to be connected to one end of a second strap. The other end of the second strap is designed to remain in close proximity to the wearer's ankle.

A clothing management apparatus is provided. The clothing management apparatus may include a waistband and a plurality of garment straps extending from the waistband to at least one lower garment, thereby making the at least one lower garment retrievable even while in a seated position. Each garment strap may provide adjustable, removable garment fasteners dimensioned and adapted to adjust the overall length of each garment strap.

A shirt stay garter employs a releasable fastening clip for reducing a tendency for plastic and/or clam-type button clips to fail (e.g., come loose). Use of the improved fastener provides a center pin that keeps the shirt stay device from coming loose. The shirt stay garter may be embodied in a variety of forms including a stirrup style, a 4-strap style, and a Y-style, for example. The shirt stay garter may include a distal member adapted to be engaged with a support surface, a proximal member slidably coupled to the distal member, and a fastener attached to the proximal member. Notably, the fastener is adapted to engage the shirt tail and resists external forces acting thereagainst during extended periods of time.

The present invention relates to a device for joining sets of two or more clothing items, such as socks, gloves or the like, which comprises at least two identical components (1, 1′) that can be coupled to each other, as well as a textile item including entire sets of underwear, home linen etc. that incorporates the device for pairing the items when they are washed, dried or stored, preventing having to search for the correct pair of each item before using them. Each of said components (1, 1′) is in turn divided into an outer part (2, 2′) and an inner part (3, 3′) that are also coupled to each other by inserting ribs (5, 5′) provided on the inner face of the outer part (2, 2′) in the orifice (4, 4′) made in the centre of the inner part (3, 3′), so that they are secured in them; the outer, smooth face can bear advertising symbols.

A clothing clip apparatus and a method for using same secure a garment in a position to allow a woman to nurse a child. A strap having a clip at one end and a ring at an opposite end secure the garment. The clothing clip apparatus attaches to a collar of the garment. The strap is dropped inside the garment, and the user grabs the ring and lifts the garment into a position for nursing the child. The ring is positioned over a top end of the clip to form a loop with the strap around the garment. Magnetic attraction between the ring and a magnet retains the garment in the desired position. The method of securing the garment using the clothing clip apparatus may be performed by the woman using one hand without assistance. A system holds a cover over the garment.

Suspenders particularly for wearing under outer garments and for connecting a wearer's shirt to his/her socks. The straps of the suspenders are preferably positioned in a “Y”-type shape with three ends. Each of the ends has a fastener for attachment to a shirt or a sock.

A sock support band comprising a closed loop having a width thickness, perimeter and opposing sides. The band has an elastic portion and an attachment portion. The attachment portion has hook material attachment means on one side for direct attachment to adjacent sock material.

The present invention is to provide a clipping device made of plastic and which can surely grasp any good regardless a thickness thereof and which comprises a first clamping member 10, a second clamping member 11 rotatably supported at a part of the first clamping member 10, an elastically resilient member 13 integrally formed on a part of the first clamping member 10 and giving the second clamping member 11 a bias force to cause the second clamping member 11 to be moved to a direction whereby the second clamping member 11 to be opened, a coupling piece member 14 integrally formed on a part of the second clamping member 11, and an operation member 15 rotatably supported on a part of the first clamping member 10, and in that by coupling the coupling piece member with the operation member, the first and the second clamping members are fixed to each other.

A decorative Velcro strap enables a dual purpose usage to secure both mittens and socks on infant boys and girls from loss or removal. A dual layer, fabric overlay, Velcro strap loops around and encircles the infant's mitten at the wrist or its sock at the ankle. The wrist or ankle-facing inside layer of the Velcro strap consist of tiny hooks, which adhere to the mitten or sock holding it in place. The ambient-facing outside layer is a decorative fabric of various colors and designs that directly overlies and is sewn onto the ankle-facing Velcro layer. A length of the opposing Velcro strip of hairier loops overlies and is sewn onto one end of the fabric layer. A decorative patch overlies and is sewn onto the other end of the fabric layer. The strap is secured around the mitten or sock by connecting the two opposing Velcro ends together.
