  • Reversible sweater with opposing sides that optionally present either customary appearance or enhanced visibility
    Patent number: 6128783
    Abstract: A reversible sweater has a pair of contiguous configurations, one composed of a knit fabric and the other composed of a micro-fiber fabric. A wearer may select which side of the reversible sweater to wear outside and/or inside. If the knit side is worn outside, the sweater (1) has a conventional appearance, but (2) provides warmth which is a function of the knit configuration, and wind resistance, water resistance and vapor permeability, all of which are functions of the micro-fiber configuration. If the micro-fiber configuration is worn outside, (1) the sweater has a fluorescent and retro-reflective appearance, but provides (2) warmth which is a function of the knit configuration, and (3) wind resistance, water resistance and vapor permeability, all of which are functions of the micro-fiber configuration.
