  • Apparatus and method for adjusting the length of a garment limb
    Patent number: 6654968
    Abstract: An article of clothing includes a body portion and a limb portion (e.g. a sleeve or pant leg) coupled to the body portion. The limb portion includes an expandable portion and a zipper assembly configured such that the zipper may be adjusted to extend and retract the limb portion between a standard length, and an elongated length. Closing the zipper assembly adjusts the limb portion to the standard length, opening the zipper adjusts the limb portion to the elongated length. The elongated length is particularly well suited for use during activities where the wearer's arms or legs may be outstretched, such as motorcycling.
