DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0015] As discussed above, embodiments of the present disclosure relate to clothing and more particularly to a legwear garment device as used to provide a low-rise hosiery legwear garment having a flexible lace band and silicone strip to hold the garment in position around a user's waist beneath the belly button area.

[0016] Generally, the legwear garment device may provide a user with a hosiery undergarment that terminates at the hip with a lace waistband designed to keep the garment in place at all times. It may utilize a silicone stick strip within the lace waistband capable of firmly securing the undergarments at the hip. The silicone strip may be configured as a single continuous strip or also as plurality of strips arranged within the inner surface of the waistband. The garment device may further include multiple strips arranged in sequence and further configured for contact with the user's skin. The waistband may measure approximately 3 inches in width. The garment may offer a sleek, polished, and comfortable experience for the wearer, ensuring maximum comfort throughout a long day. This device may keep hosiery and legwear in place without being too tight and without the product sagging or rolling down. The present invention may utilize a durable, soft microfiber material in order to maintain comfort while wearing the product.

[0017] The design of this device may allow a user to wear hosiery without it squeezing the midsection, rolling down or sagging throughout the day. The no-squeeze, flexible waistband may allow the product to conform and sit lower on a user's hips and under their belly button, replacing the high-waist squeezing control top hosiery. The silicone strip inside the lace allows the product to make contact and adhere to the skin without discomfort.

[0018] The legwear garment device may be referred to herein as Hipstik Legwear, which can be constructed using soft, durable microfiber materials. The legwear may be available in numerous sizes capable of accommodating women of all ages and body types. Exact size, measurement, construction, and design specifications may vary upon manufacturing. Upon reading this specification, it should be appreciated that, under appropriate circumstances, considering such issues as user preferences, design preference, structural requirements, marketing preferences, cost, available materials, technological advances, etc., other garment arrangements such as, for example, alternative sizes, aesthetic designs, materials used, etc., may be sufficient.

[0019] The garment of this disclosure may be configured as a hosiery item or leggings for women to wear above or beneath alternative clothing items. The legwear garment device may include flexible material and lace, especially in the waistband area. The device may be soft to the touch for added comfort, while remaining wear-durable to allow for extended wear and continued use over a long period of time. The materials used may include a microfiber material and more specifically a 97-denier microfiber material. The strip beneath the waistband area may include silicone to help prevent sagging of the waistband.
