Benefits of technology
The repositionable belt loop is a highly functional clothing accessory that can be placed on almost any location on a variety of garments. It provides an anchor for a belt, sash or other elongated fashion article. The belt loop can be in a variety of shapes but generally has an elongated body with a notch on its inner side to route a belt therthrough. On either side of the notch is a garment engaging pad having a flat outer surface facing the garment and a garment engaging member attached thereto. The garment engaging members include pins or a pivoting pin and clasp. The belt loop can be used alone or together to provide support for a belt on a garment that previously was without integral belt loops or to augment a garment with a limited number of integral belt loops.
Problems solved by technology
Unfortunately, many garments lack integral belt loops or other supports for belts.
While repositionable supports for belts may be available, these tend to be devices that clamp the belt tightly and do not allow the belt to smoothly glide through the support.
In addition, integral belt loops do not allow the position of the belt to be changed to suit the needs or desires of the user.

Embodiment Construction
[0019]For purposes of better understanding the present teachings and in no way limiting the scope of the teachings, unless otherwise indicated, all numbers expressing length, width, quantities, proportions, or other numerical values used in the specification and claims, are to be understood as being modified in all instances by the term “about”. Accordingly, unless indicated to the contrary, the numerical parameters set forth in the following specification and attached claims are approximations that may vary depending upon the desired properties sought to be obtained. At the very least, each numerical parameter should at least be construed in light of the number of reported significant digits and by applying ordinary rounding techniques. As generally shown in FIG. 1, the repositionable belt loop 10 is shown attached to two locations on a garment or coat C and supporting a belt B. While only two locations on the coat C are shown, it should be understood that any number of the reposit...

The repositionable belt loop can be placed on a wide variety of garments, providing an anchor for a belt, sash or other elongated fashion article. The belt loop has an elongated body with a wide notch on its inner side to route a belt there through. On either side of the wide notch are garment engaging pads with garment engaging members. In a first embodiment, the garment engaging members include pins facing inwardly from the garment engaging pads and locking caps. In a second embodiment, the garment engaging members include a pivoting pin that is connected to one of the garment engaging pads and a clasp connected to the other garment engaging pad. The repositionable belt loop can be in a variety of shapes and can be used singly or in groups, to provide support for a belt on a garment that previously had few or no integral belt loops.
Description
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 978,092, filed on Feb. 18, 2020.BACKGROUND1. Field[0002]The present disclosure relates to clothing and fashion accessories, and more particularly to a repositionable belt loop for attachment to a garment.2. Description of the Related Art[0003]Belts are a useful addition to many types of clothing and garments, including, but not limited to, pants, shorts, coats, skirts and some jackets. In addition to being useful for supporting a garment, belts can also be used as a fashion accessory, to add a certain look or style to a garment. Unfortunately, many garments lack integral belt loops or other supports for belts. While repositionable supports for belts may be available, these tend to be devices that clamp the belt tightly and do not allow the belt to smoothly glide through the support. In addition, integral belt loops do not allow the position of the belt to be ...
