Three-dimensional camouflage garment
View Patent ↗The present invention relates to a three-dimensional camouflage garment including a base fabric and fabric pieces attached thereto. The fabric pieces may be attached to the base fabric via substantially horizontal attachment lines. The fabric pieces may include a tab portion for attachment to the base fabric and a depending portion depending from the tab portion. As attached, the fabric pieces may include a non-flat orientation to facilitate the three-dimensional effect. Associated methods of producing a three-dimensional camouflage garment are also provided.
1. A camouflage garment configured to be worn by a standing wearer, the camouflage garment comprising:
a base fabric defining a portion of said garment, said portion covering one of a torso, separate from any garment sleeves, and leg section of said standing wearer, said base fabric having a top end, a bottom end and sides relative to the standing wearer; and
a plurality of fabric pieces attached to said base fabric at an attachment line, the attachment line extending along said base fabric in a substantially horizontal direction relative to the standing wearer,
wherein each of said plurality of fabric pieces includes
a depending portion including a proximal section and a distal section, and
an upper portion including a section extending below the attachment line when the standing wearer is wearing the garment, and each of the plurality of fabric pieces is attached to said base fabric via said upper portion such that a proximal section of said depending portion, proximate to said upper portion, extends upwardly above the attachment line towards said top end of said base fabric, and
wherein the distal section of said depending portion extends downwardly beyond the attachment line toward said bottom end of said base fabric when the standing wearer is wearing the garment.
2. The camouflage garment of claim 1 , wherein the attachment line is a first attachment line, and which includes a second attachment line, wherein the distal section extends distally toward said distal-bottom end of said base fabric and additionally beyond the second attachment line when the standing wearer is wearing the garment.
3. The camouflage garment of claim 1 , wherein at least two of said plurality of fabric pieces are attached to said base fabric in partially overlapping relation.
4. The camouflage garment of claim 1 , wherein said fabric pieces are curved.
5. The camouflage garment of claim 1 , wherein at least one of said depending portions includes a plurality of elongated members that are substantially parallel to each other.
6. The camouflage garment of claim 5 , wherein at least one of the elongated members extends generally perpendicular to the attachment line.
7. A camouflage garment configured to be worn by a standing wearer, the camouflage garment comprising:
a base fabric defining a portion of the garment, the base fabric including
a top end, a bottom end and sides each relative to the standing wearer, and
an attachment line extending along the base fabric in a substantially horizontal direction relative to the standing wearer of the garment; and
a plurality of fabric pieces each including
an upper portion attached to the base fabric at the attachment line, the upper portion including a section extending below the attachment line when the standing wearer is wearing the garment, and
a depending portion having a proximal section and a distal section, the proximal section extending upwardly above the attachment line towards the top end of the base fabric and the depending portion extending downwardly beyond the attachment line toward the bottom end of the base fabric when the standing wearer is wearing the garment.
8. A camouflage garment configured to be worn by a standing wearer, the camouflage garment comprising:
a base fabric defining a portion of the garment, the base fabric including
a top end, a bottom end and sides relative to the standing wearer of the garment,
a first attachment line extending along the base fabric in a substantially horizontal direction relative to the standing wearer, and
a second attachment line spaced apart from the first attachment line and extending along the base fabric in a substantially horizontal direction relative to the standing wearer; and
a plurality of first fabric pieces each including
an upper portion attached at the first attachment line, the upper portion including a section extending below the first attachment line when the standing wearer is wearing the garment, and
a depending portion having a proximal section and a distal section, the proximal section extending upwardly above the first attachment line towards the top end of the base fabric and the distal section extending downwardly beyond the first and second attachment lines toward the end of the base fabric when the standing wearer is wearing the garment; and
a plurality of second fabric pieces each including
an upper portion attached at the second attachment line, the upper portion including a section extending below the second attachment line when the standing wearer is wearing the garment, and
a depending portion having a proximal section and a distal section, the proximal section extending upwardly above the second attachment line towards the top end of the base fabric and the distal section extending downwardly beyond the second attachment line toward the bottom end of the base fabric when the standing wearer is wearing the garment.
