AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This invention relates to clothes that have better resistance against wear caused by rubbing or other physical contact during use. It achieves this by making them resistant to damage when they are worn outdoors for longer periods without losing their effectiveness due to rainwater intrusion.

Problems solved by technology

The technical problem addressed by this patented inventor relates to providing a comfortable yet flexible solution for preventing damage caused by rainy conditions during driving at high speeds over uneven surfaces like roadsides (roads) with no sealings). Existing solutions involve adding layers between different material types to make them more rigid without being able to absorb any significant amount of moisture. This can lead to decreased comfort levels and increased risk of injury if there're too much pressure applied against it.

Embodiment Construction

FIGS. 1 and 2 illustrate a motorcycle jacket 8 including the ventilation system of the current invention embodied in a jacket sleeve 10. The sleeve 10 includes an outer layer in the form of an abrasion-resistant fabric 14 defining an outer opening 18. An inner layer in the form of a waterproof fabric 22 extends across the outer opening 18 and defines an inner opening 26. A layer of venting material 28 extends across the inner opening 26 and includes a plurality of holes (not shown). An outer closure in the form of a standard zipper 30 is adapted to close the edges 34 of the outer opening 18, and an inner closure in the form of a water-resistant zipper 38 is adapted to close the edges 42 of the inner opening 26.

The sleeve 10 is preferably constructed such that the abrasion-resistant fabric 14 protects the wearer in case of a fall but is not necessarily water impermeable. The abrasion-resistant fabric 14 may include natural materials such as leather, recently developed synthetics, or oth

Abstract

An article of clothing includes a waterproof inner fabric layer and an outer fabric layer. An outer opening is defined in the outer fabric layer and is selectively opened and closed by a standard zipper. A portion of the inner fabric layer extends between the edges of the outer opening and defines an inner opening. The inner opening is selectively opened and closed by a water-resistant zipper. Venting material extends between the edges of the inner opening and allows air to flow through the inner opening when both the inner and outer openings are opened.
