Benefits of technology

The present invention is a garment support apparatus that can hold up a garment with a waist band and belt-loop. It consists of a closed end and two extending sections, which are attached to the closed end. These sections extend to distal ends that form an open end of the apparatus. The space between the sections is sized to fit the garment's waist band. The first section has an opening to fit the belt-loop, while the second section has a layer of friction material on both sides that contacts the inside and outside of the garment to hold it in place. The apparatus is made from a resilient material. The technical effect of this invention is to provide a simple and effective way to support garments with a waist band and belt-loop, keeping them in place and preventing them from sliding or falling down.

Problems solved by technology

For example, some people find suspenders to be difficult or time consuming to use.
Another reason is that suspenders may not be suitable for some styles of pants or trousers

Embodiment Construction

[0072]Referring to FIGS. 1-6, there is shown garment support apparatus 100 in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention. Garment support apparatus 100 is configured for use with garment 102 which has waist band 104. Waist band 104 has interior side 106, exterior side 108, and at least one belt-loop 110. Garment support apparatus 100 further comprises closed end 112 and first and second extending sections 114 and 116, respectively, which are attached to closed end 112. Extending section 114 comprises portions 114A and 114B. First and second extending sections 114 and 116, respectively, are spaced apart from each other by space 118 (see FIG. 4). First and second extending sections 114 and 116, respectively, extend to distal ends 120 and 122, respectively, which are spaced apart so as to form an open end 124 of garment support apparatus 100. In a preferred embodiment, closed end 112 and first and second extending sections 114 and 116, respectively, are fabricated from a p...

Abstract

A garment support apparatus for use with a garment having a waist band. The garment support apparatus has a pliable closed end, and pliable first and second extending sections attached to the closed end and spaced apart from one another. The first and second extending sections extend to distal ends that are spaced apart so as to form an open end of the garment support apparatus. The space between the first and second extending sections is sized to receive a garment waist band. The first extending section has an opening sized for receiving a belt-loop. The second extending section has a first side and an opposite, second side. Friction material is on the first and second sides of the second extending section for frictional contact with an interior portion of the waist band and for frictional contact with a shirt jersey worn by a wearer.
