In one example, the garment is a pair of pants that comprises: a waistband with a first end and a second end, a first leg, a second leg, a first sealable opening running from said waistband to a hem of said first leg, a second sealable opening running from said waistband to a hem of said second leg, and a front patch. The waistband has an extension strip on said first end. The extension strip extends from a proximity of an intersection of said waistband and said first sealable opening. The second end of said waistband has a component of a fastener. The extension strip has a mating component of said fastener.

An article of clothing with tools incorporated therein. The article of clothing has a strap assembly that has a strap body with first and second strap ends and at least one tool assembly. The at least one tool assembly is secured within the first and/or second strap ends. The at least one tool assembly is a fin key. The at least one tool assembly has a plate and a shaft. The plate is secured within the strap body while a respective shaft protrudes from a respective first or second aperture. The first and second apertures each have a predetermined size to secure the plate within the strap body while a respective shaft protrudes from the respective first or second ends. The strap assembly is incorporated onto an article of clothing such as a boardshort.

A utility belt is disclosed. The utility belt comprises a belt track, a ball bearing assembly, and an extender assembly. The belt track includes a first belt section having a first male locking mechanism and a first female locking mechanism, and a second belt section having a second male locking mechanism and a second female locking mechanism. The first male locking mechanism connects to the second female locking mechanism. The second male locking mechanism connects to the first female locking mechanism. The first belt section and the second belt section each comprises an outer sheath and an inner tube. The inner tube includes a plurality of C-shaped rings. The ball bearing assembly has a ball bearing and a joint. The ball bearing rotates about the belt track. An extender assembly is coupled to the belt track and includes at least one connector and at least one spacer.

The disclosure provides a tightness adjusting device, including an adjustable rope, two toothed straps, and a slide fastener fitting with the two toothed straps, wherein each of the toothed straps includes a woven strap and a teeth row arranged on a work side of the woven strap, the slide fastener defines two passages therein, the two teeth rows stretch into the two passages respectively, the two passages are converged at least on a first end to form a tightening passage, the slide fastener is also provided with a separating block, the separating block is arranged between the two passages, the separating block is provided with a separating cone of which a tip end is toward the tightening passage, the separating cone is one-to-one corresponding to the tightening passage, and the adjustable rope is in connection with the slide fastener. With such arrangement, the tightness adjusting device provided in the disclosure can have the adjustable rope arranged in the interior completely, with a simple and compact structure; the adjustable rope in the interior can be tightened or loosened through pulling the slide fastener; in addition, when the tightness adjusting device provided in the disclosure is used to adjust tightness, it is only needed to pull the slide fastener, and single hand operation is enough.

A lacing system configured to selectively adjust the size of an opening on an object and allow for the incremental release of the lace within the lacing system. The lacing system can have a reel comprising a housing, a spool supported by the housing, and a knob supported by the housing. The reel can be configured so that cable is gathered in the channel formed in the spool when the spool is rotated in a first direction relative to the housing, and so that cable can be incrementally released from the spool when the spool is rotated in a second direction relative to the housing. In some embodiments, the reel can include a rotation limiter which can be configured to prevent over-tightening of the lacing system and/or to prevent rotation past the substantially fully loosened state.

A belt bar includes a multi-sided enclosure which sides form a center gap, the sides can be extended and expand and contract to modify the size of said gap, allowing the belt bar to adjust to the width and thickness of varying size belts being passed through the gap. The sides have an inside cavity space that house elastic objects attached to panels that allow for the expansion and retraction of the belt bar.
