Abstract: A cape having a back panel and two front panels. The cape is provided with interior zippers and handle members. The cape, when reversed and folded, may be zipped together to form a utility bag for carrying sporting equipment. The cape may be provided with pockets and a hood as well as an insulative liner.
Abstract: The present invention includes a novel and unique combination poncho or rain garment with means adapted for suspending the poncho from an overhead object in a manner whereby a portion of the waterproof fabric of the poncho forms a bag-like configuration for containing a quantity of water and a water dispensing means in the form of a shower head mounted in the poncho for allowing the water to be drawn from the reservoir in the bag configuration for use in washing and showering. The shower head is uniquely adapted for this purpose having an integral valve assembly which can be opened and allowed to close with the use of only one hand, as well as maintained in the full open position without the necessity of maintaining manual force on the valve operating mechanism.
Abstract: An article of clothing, such as a thermally lined cape, includes an integral storage compartment into which the cap can be folded to form a cushion. When not used to store the cape, the compartment can be used to store a pair of gloves, foul weather pants, et cetera. The storage compartment also includes a handle to facilitate carrying the cape when folded into the storage compartment.
