  • Patent number: 10856595
    Abstract: Magnetic clothing stay methods including gripping a first clothing item between a first body and second body of a clothing stay near an edge of the first clothing item, the first body having a first magnetic element and the second body having a second magnetic element, tucking the edge of the first clothing item underneath a second clothing item, contacting an inner surface of the second clothing item with an outer surface of the clothing stay, and thereby retarding movement of the first clothing item relative to the second clothing item via friction between the outer surface of the clothing stay and the inner surface of the second clothing item.

  • Publication number: 20150181961
    Abstract: Magnetic clothing stay systems including a first magnetically attractable partner having a first body, a first magnetically attractable element, a first mating surface, and an of clothing item contacting surface; and a second magnetically attractable partner having a second body, a second magnetically attractable element, and a second mating surface, the first mating surface being matable to the second mating surface are described. In some examples, the first body has a generally dome-shaped body. In some further examples, the second body has a generally disc-shaped body.

  • Publication number: 20120079688
    Abstract: A magnetic clamp for attaching, while being worn, a man's dress shirt to his undershirt where the inside of the dress shirt is adjacent to the outside of the undershirt and a first magnetic device having first and a second surfaces is located on the outside of the dress shirt. A high friction material located on the second surface prevents the dress shirt from moving relative to the first magnetic device. A second magnetic device having a first and second surfaces is located on the inside of the undershirt and is aligned with the first magnetic device where a material having high friction is located on the first surface of the second magnetic device to prevent the undershirt from moving relative to the second magnetic device and the second magnetic device is oriented to be attracted by the first magnetic device to urge the undershirt into tight contact with the dress shirt.
