Abstract: An elastic belt allows blousing of the lower portion of an upper garment. The belt comprises a longitudinally stretchable strip which is wrapped around the torso of the body and secured with a hook-and-loop fastener component. The belt comprises an inner surface having a high coefficient of friction with the garment material. The outer surface of the belt comprises a matching hook-and-loop fastener component. The hem of the upper garment can be tucked under the inner surface of the belt from the lower side of the belt to form a bloused hem.

Abstract: A folding chair is disclosed which can be used on sloping or uneven terrain. Individually adjustable legs and leveling feet provide flexibility of use, comfort, and stability where ordinary folding chairs cannot be used. In an alternative embodiment, ball and socket leveling feet are used to level the feet and distribute the leg loads. Grooved resilient pads on the bottom of the feet prevent slippage on hard surfaces such as rock or concrete.
