DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0016] As discussed above, embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a garment and more particularly to a convertible garment system as used to combine a hoodie garment and a gym bag into a single unit for convenience and portability.

[0017] Generally, the present invention provides a combination hoodie that transforms into a gym bag. The product includes a secure pocket to store small valuables without the chance of losing them. It allows athletes to warm up wearing a sweatshirt and then remove the sweatshirt and flip it into a bag for storing other items during a game. The product saves time and frustration toting a separate bag and sweatshirt around, or taking up space inside bags with big, bulky sweatshirts.

[0018] The present invention offers access to a sweatshirt anywhere the bag can be stored, including in cars if stranded on the side of the road. The hoodie combines a hooded sweatshirt and gym bag into one simple and convenient garment. This garment features a high quality shoulder-style gym bag, made from nylon, cotton, or other suitable material, that attaches to the inside back neckline of a sweatshirt. When wearing the sweatshirt, that bag can be undetectable. When not wearing the sweatshirt, users can simply flip the sweatshirt inside the bag, and pull the straps to close the bag. Next, users can place the straps over shoulder and wear like a traditional bag. Inside the bag can be a zippered pocket to store small valuable items like a cell phone, wallet, ID, and money. Additionally, on the corner of the bag can be a key loop to hang keys. Further, the sweatshirt can be offered in a wide range of colors, designs, and prints, as well as sizes, to accommodate user preferences and needs.
