Reversible zipper fly cover and method for manufacturing the same

Abstract

An improved reversible zipper fly cover is provided having a symmetric reversible zipper fly cover, being symmetric whether formed “inside” or “outside”. A zipper flap is formed symmetrically about each panel and the attachment strips of the zipper attached thereto by stitching. Next, the inner fly flap is formed by stitching one flap to its respective panel; and, the outer fly flap is thereafter formed by stitching the next flap to its respective panel. A crotch seam is thereafter extended laterally downward in an otherwise conventional manner.

What is claimed is:  
     
         1 . An improved reversible zipper fly cover comprising: 
 a zipper having a first zipper flap opposite a second zipper flap;    a first panel connected to said first zipper flap and attached by a finished seam;    a second panel connected to said second zipper flap and attached by a finished seam;    an inner fly cover flap formed by attaching said first panel zipper flap to said first panel by a first fly cover finish seam;    an outer fly cover flap formed by attaching said second panel zipper flap to said second panel by a second fly cover finish seam,    wherein said zipper fly cover is whether formed “inside” or “outside”.    
     
     
         2 . In a reversible zipper fly cover formed for connecting a pair of pant panels utilizing an otherwise conventional zipper having a traveler incorporating a reversible traveler guide bounded laterally by a pair of attachment strips, wherein the improvement comprises: 
 a zipper flap formed symmetrically about each panel and the attachment strips of the zipper attached thereto by stitching.    
     
     
         3 . In the reversible zipper fly cover of  claim 2 , wherein said improvement further comprises an inner fly flap formed by stitching one flap to its respective panel.  
     
     
         4 . In the reversible zipper fly cover of  claim 3 , wherein said improvement further comprises an outer fly flap formed by stitching another flap to its respective panel.  
     
     
         5 . A method for producing a zipper fly cover, said method comprising the steps of: 
 a. Connecting a first panel to a second panel via an otherwise conventional reversible zipper by formation of a first panel zipper flap attached to the first panel by a finished seam;    b. Connecting a second panel similarly prepared by formation of a second panel zipper flap attached to the second panel by a finished seam;    c. Attaching a first attachment strip to said first panel zipper flap in a manner offset from an outer edge, by an attachment seam;    d. Attaching a second attachment strip to the second panel zipper flap in an offset manner from an outer edge, by an similar attachment seam;    e. Forming an inner fly cover flap by attaching the first panel zipper flap to the first panel by a first fly cover finish seam; and    f. Forming an outer fly cover flap by attaching the second panel zipper flap to the second panel  12  by a second fly cover finish seam.    
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 5 , further comprising the step of forming a crotch seam extended laterally downward
