Problems solved by technology

One issue associated with outer garments is related to the fact that there is not always a convenient place to store an outer garment when the weather improves or when the wearer goes inside.
As a result, the wearer may have to either wear the outer garment, store the outer garment in an inconvenient location (e.g., a coat check), or carry the outer garment.
Carrying the outer garment can be both inconvenient and tiresome due to the size and weight of the outer garment and the fact that at least one of the wearer's arms will be occupied by the outer garment.
The present inventors have also determined that conventional wearable outer garment carriers tend to be relatively large and heavy, difficult to assemble and disassemble, difficult to put on and take off, and uncomfortable to wear.
These carriers position the arm holes around the arms with the lower straps attached to the remainder of the harness at or above the armpit, which causes pulling at the armpit, or just above the armpit at the front of the arms, that is uncomfortable for most users once the weight of the outer garment is applied.

Embodiment Construction

[0027]The following is a detailed description of the best presently known modes of carrying out the inventions. This description is not to be taken in a limiting sense, but is made merely for the purpose of illustrating the general principles of the inventions.

[0028]As illustrated for example in FIGS. 1-4, an exemplary outer garment carrier 100, which may also be used to carry purses, tote bags, and other personal items, includes an attachment mechanism 102 and a shoulder harness 104. As discussed in greater detail below with reference to FIGS. 5-8, the shoulder harness 104 is adapted to mount at least a portion of the attachment mechanism 102 (and in some instances the entire attachment mechanism) at or above the superior angles of the scapulae. In the illustrated implementation, the attachment mechanism 102 is a hook that may be secured to the shoulder harness 104 with a fastener 106. The exemplary outer garment OG includes a loop L (as do many other outer garments) that allows th...

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 62 / 788,686, filed Jan. 4, 2019, which is incorporated herein by reference.BACKGROUND1. Field[0002]The present inventions relate generally to outer garments such as coats and jackets and, in particular, to apparatus and methods for carrying outer garments when they are not in use.2. Description of the Related Art[0003]Outer garments such as coats and jackets are frequently worn in times of cold and wet weather. One issue associated with outer garments is related to the fact that there is not always a convenient place to store an outer garment when the weather improves or when the wearer goes inside. As a result, the wearer may have to either wear the outer garment, store the outer garment in an inconvenient location (e.g., a coat check), or carry the outer garment. Carrying the outer garment can be both inconvenient and tiresome due to the size and weight of the outer g...
