Abstract
Improved pants include front and rear panels configured and dimensioned to provide a high rear waist and lower front waist to optimize fit by a wearer in a wheelchair. Front pockets are substantially lower than the waistline and rear or inseam pockets are disposed at the inseam behind the calf on the jeans below the knee, e.g., positioned on the inner calf on the leg of the pants. An inseam zipper preferably extends from the crotch down one or both legs for easy access to a catheter, and other features are employed for optimal fit and utility.
Description
- This application claims benefit of priority to U.S. provisional application Ser. No. 61/642,996 titled “Functional Wear” filed on May 4, 2012 by inventor Antonio Quistian, Jr., which application is hereby incorporated by reference as though fully and completely set forth herein.
- The present invention relates to functional clothing, and more particularly to pants for use by wheelchair users.
- For a person in a wheelchair, designer jeans or other pants are impractical to wear because they are designed and constructed for able-bodied individuals and do not meet the particular needs of a person confined to the sitting position. The position of pockets, including rear pockets with graphics and designs and front pockets positioned at or just below the waistline, are difficult to access and essentially useless for most wheelchair users. The different styles and cuts of jeans available today do not address the unique position, abilities and needs of wheelchair users. Thus, there remains a need for improved functional jeans or other pants having features optimized for wear and use by a wheelchair user.
- In one embodiment, exemplary jeans (also referred to herein as “Ability Jeans”) include a number of features to make them convenient, functional and comfortable to wear by a person in the sitting position, e.g., a wheel chair user. For example, inseam pockets are disposed at the inseam behind the calf on the jeans, e.g., just below the knee. The pocket may be positioned on the inner calf on the leg of the pants. Depending on the jean style the one or more calf pockets may be zipper pockets, button pockets, Velcro-closure pockets, drop-in slits, or other configurations. These pockets are preferably positioned and dimensioned to be accessible and convenient for a cell phone or a wallet. They are located in a spot that can be easily reached and that are not extremely noticeable as in cargo pants.
- In some embodiments, jeans according to the present invention have no back pockets on the seat of the user. Rather, lower leg, calf and/or inseam pockets are used. In some embodiments, front pockets are located below the waistline, e.g., such that they are positioned on a user's upper thigh. In preferred embodiments, such pockets are between 3 to 7 inches lower than waist level on the front of the pants to facilitate getting items in and out of the pockets while in a sitting position. In some embodiments, the inside of these pockets have an outward angle so items stored inside of them sit conveniently on the outside of the users thigh instead of on top of one's lap.
- In some embodiments, a rear portion of the waist is configured to be substantially higher than in standard pants or jeans and substantially higher the front of the waist of the pants. For example, the rear portion of the waist band of the pants may be 3 to 8 inches higher, or more, than the front of the waist band. Preferably, the design allows for complete coverage of the user's buttocks while sitting in a chair. This configuration allows the jeans to remain in the proper position while the user makes a transfer from one seat to another (e.g., from a wheelchair to a stationary chair), or while shifting positions.
- In some embodiments, Ability Jeans are equipped with a crotch zipper that extends down the inseam to at least the knee level. In some embodiments, the zipper extends past the knee to the heel of the pant. This allows the leg to be opened completely so the user can tend to his/her catheter easily without having to remove the pants. In some embodiments, a plurality of zippers, snaps, hook-and-loop closures, or other access points and closure means may be disposed along the leg, e.g., to facilitate access to a catheter, to use a toilet or to otherwise access a user's legs or undergarments without completely separating the inseam when unzipped or otherwise unfastened.
- In some embodiments, the waist band and/or a portion thereof includes stretch material. In some embodiments, a draw sting or other means for tightening the stretch material may be disposed on the sides of the jean, e.g., located on the inner waist band, such that the draw string can be pulled to tighten the stretch material. This allows the user to tighten the jeans without the use of a belt. The user can control how tight they wish to make each side of the jeans suitable to the users comfort. Other means of fastening, tightening and/or adjusting the elasticity of the waistline may be employed.
- For a better understanding of the nature and objects of the invention, reference should be made to the following detailed description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which:
-
FIG. 1 is a front view schematic illustration of exemplary jeans having features and characteristics for wheelchair users, according to the present invention. -

Astrap 21 may be part ofdrawstring 20 as described above, or may be a separate strap as shown inFIG. 3 , for facilitating dressing and adjustment of the pants by the wearer. Similarly, afront panel 43 separatesfront pockets 28 from thefront waist band 16, and is configured and dimensioned such that pockets 28 are positioned substantially below the waistline for easy access by the wearer. Preferably,front panel 43 is substantially, e.g., 3 or more inches, shorter in it vertical dimension thanrear panel 41, such that rear portion ofwaist 14 is substantially higher thanfront portion 16. - Referring to
FIG. 4 , exemplary Ability Jeans are illustrated in the sitting position. The highrear waist 14 of the jean andlower front 16 allows for complete coverage and comfort while sitting in a chair. This allows the jeans to remain in the proper position while the user makes a transfer from one seat to another (e.g., from a wheelchair to a stationary chair), or while shifting positions.Straps 21 may be used for adjusting the jeans and/or may be integrated with a drawstring (not shown) to adjust tightness or elasticity of the waist.Zipper 44 or other access feature on one or bothlegs - Turning now to
