A garment is provided which includes a flat-knitted fabric laminate made of at least one flat-knitted fabric. The flat-knitted fabric includes a polyurethane film which is stretchable in substantially all directions. A knit fabric made of fleecy thread may be adhesively bonded to the film and be positioned between the film and the inner lining. The garment can be made up of five tailored flat-knitted laminate pieces: three flat-knitted laminate pieces for the two front sides and the rear side of the torso, and two flat-knitted laminate pieces for the two sleeves. The seams form the two sleeve cuffs, and the seams are sewn onto the flat-knitted laminate pieces for the torso. The front pieces are sewn together, and the rear side of the torso piece is positioned along the side of the torso by a respective seam. The seams are used to connect these parts along the shoulders.

The technology described herein relates to a pair of long pants garment panel comprising a pattern of a durable water-repellant (DWR) coating that is selectively applied on to the pant legs of the pair of long pants. The pattern is comprised of a plurality of discrete shapes that are isolated from one another. In other words, the textile material surrounding each discrete shape in the plurality of discrete shapes is not coated by the DWR coating. A size of the plurality of discrete shapes in the pattern is gradually decreased moving up the pant legs starting from a hemmed edge up to a knee area. The pattern is visible during wet conditions and not visible during dry conditions.

A garment or article of clothing made of a resilient/elastomeric material includes at least a waist portion, a first leg portion, and a second leg portion. The waist portion further includes a pocket on the rear of the garment, where the pocket is defined by a backing panel, a first flap, and a second flap. The first flap is at least partially disposed over the second flap to secure contents between the backing panel and the second panel, and thus, within the pocket. When the waist portion is stretched, the tensile forces imparted onto the waist portion by the resilient/elastomeric material causes the first flap to at least partially overlie the second flap. The pocket is sized and shaped to receive smartphones and other small personal items, such as keys, money, credit cards, identifications, etc.

A garment includes a lower portion and a waistband coupled to the lower portion and configured to be oriented around a waist of the person wearing the garment. The waistband includes a first flap and a second flap. The first flap includes a top edge and an opposite arcuate edge. The second flap includes a top edge and an opposite bottom edge, wherein the first flap and the second flap overlap. A pocket panel is coupled to the waistband of the garment and defines a pocket with an opening to the pocket. The opening to the pocket is defined along a laterally-extending first perimeter portion of the pocket panel and a laterally-extending second perimeter portion of the pocket panel. The first flap is coupled to the first perimeter portion of the pocket panel and the second flap is coupled to the second perimeter portion of the pocket panel.

A garment includes a waistband and a lower portion. The waistband includes a top perimeter and a bottom perimeter, and the lower portion is coupled to the bottom perimeter of the waistband. The garment further includes a dynamic pocket comprising a pleated resilient sheet disposed on the waistband. The resilient sheet includes a left side, a right side, a laterally extending first end, and a laterally extending second end opposite the first end. The left side and the right side of the resilient sheet define sides of a pocket cavity of the dynamic pocket. An opening to the pocket cavity is defined between the waistband and the pleated resilient sheet. The pleated resilient sheet includes a plurality of pleats defined by a plurality of fold lines. The plurality of pleats are configured to unfold along the plurality of fold lines to increase a height of the pocket cavity.
