  • ADJUSTABLE LENGTH GARMENT INCORPORATING HEM INSERTS, AND METHOD OF FORMING A CUFF IN A GARMENT
    Publication number: 20200205495
    Abstract: An adjustable length garment is constructed of a fabric and includes garment parts having respective circumferential hems. The garment further includes first and second hem inserts freely positioned within respective hems of the garment parts and unattached to the fabric of the garment. A circumferentially reinforced cuff is adapted for being formed at the hem of each garment part by turning the hem insert upwardly, such that a width of the cuff corresponds substantially to a width of the flexible strip, thereby shortening the garment part by each upward turn of the hem insert, and returning the garment part to its original length by a corresponding downward turn of the hem insert.
