Embodiment Construction

[0013]FIG. 1 depicts a flexible panel based garment. The panel based garment 100 includes a plurality of panel units 102 with each panel unit 102 being connected to an adjacent panel unit 102 by a connection unit 104. Each panel unit 102 may be made of a rigid material including plastic, metal, leather, vinyl or any other rigid material. The connection units 104 may be made of any material capable of connecting the panel units 102 including, but not limited to, metal, plastic, rubber or any other material. In one embodiment, the connection units 104 are ring shaped having an inner diameter and outer diameter.

[0014]The panels 102 include a front and back surface that allow the garment to be reversed. In one embodiment, each surface of each panel unit 102 has a different color or design such that the garment has a different look when one panel unit 102 is on the outside of the garment. In reversing the garment, the panel units 102 rotate about the connection units 104 such that a prev...
