FIG. 8 is a front perspective view of a second embodiment of the “suspenders”, showing my new design;

FIG. 9 is a rear perspective view thereof;

FIG. 10 is a top plan view of the suspenders disposed substantially flat on a planar surface; elevation view thereof;

FIG. 11 is a bottom plan view of the suspenders as disposed on the substantially flat planar surface in FIG. 9;

FIG. 12 is a right side elevation view of FIG. 9, the left side elevation view being the mirror image thereof;

FIG. 13 is front side elevation view of FIG. 9;

FIG. 14 is a rear side elevation view of FIG.9

FIG. 15 is a front perspective view of a third embodiment of the “suspenders”, showing my new design;

FIG. 16 is a rear perspective view thereof;

FIG. 17 is a top plan view of the suspenders disposed substantially flat on a planar surface; elevation view thereof;

FIG. 18 is a bottom plan view of the suspenders as disposed on the substantially flat planar surface in FIG. 15;

FIG. 19 is a right side elevation view of FIG. 15, the left side elevation view being the mirror image thereof; and

FIG. 20 is front side elevation view of FIG. 15; and,

FIG. 21 is a rear side elevation view of FIG. 15.

FIGS. 1-2, 7-8 and 13-14 show the suspenders assuming the contour they would have in use when being used to hold up the pants of a wearer, in which fine broken lines illustrate the outline of the wearer's torso and the pants the suspenders hold.

Broken lines are deployed in FIGS. 1, 2, 8, 9, 15 and 16 to illustrate that the torso and pants constitute the environment of the design and are not claimed. The other broken lines in FIGS. 1,4-7 and 15-21 that do not depict the torso and pants illustrate portions of the suspenders that form no part of the claimed design.

The break lines shown in FIG's 1-5, 8-12 and 15-19 symbolize breaks in length of the article in which the claimed design is embodied. The appearance of any portion of the article between the break lines form no part of the claimed design.

The cross-hatched patterns ,although shown intermittently on portions of the elongated straps, are meant to generally represent compliant fabric that is capable of draping over the wearer's torso. It should be understood that such fabric is distributed uniformly over the surface of the claimed portion of the design upon which it resides. The cross-hatched patterns are not intended to represent the texture or weave of a particular fabric.

As these fabric portions have no substantial thickness, the various side views thereof are not intended to limit the thickness of the fabric in the claimed design, but rather to space apart the top and bottom surfaces of the fabric at the minimum thickness that is believed to be capable of illustration and publication at the reduced scale in patent grant documents.
