Abstract

A garment with an integrated measuring device. For example, a pair of boxer shorts may have a cloth ruler stitched into the fly area of the boxer shorts. Any object which may be near the fly area of the boxer shorts may be sized up by opening the fly and inserting or extending an object through the fly or placing an object along the axis of the measuring device. The demarcations of measurement may be in inches, centimeters or any other unit of measure and may or may not be numbered. In addition, the actual demarcations may be smaller than an inch for example to make any object next to the measure device appear to be larger than it actually is. The garment may be shorts, boxer shorts, pants, pajamas, a bra, a sports bra, a shirt, a sock or any other garment.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A garment with an integrated measuring device comprising: 
 a piece of cloth formed into a garment that is wearable; and,    a measuring device integrated with said garment.    
   
   
       2 . The apparatus of  claim 1  wherein said measuring device comprises demarcations of measurement that are smaller than an actual implied unit of measure in order to make an object measured with said measuring device look larger than said object actually is.  
   
   
       3 . The apparatus of  claim 1  wherein said measuring device comprises demarcations of measurement that are larger than an actual implied unit of measure in order to make an object measured with said measuring device look smaller than said object actually is.  
   
   
       4 . The apparatus of  claim 1  wherein said measuring device comprises demarcations of measurement that are equal to actual implied unit of measure in order to make an object measured with said measuring device appear to be equal a size that said object actually is.  
   
   
       5 . The apparatus of  claim 1  wherein said measuring device comprises a ruler and wherein said ruler demarcations are closer together than demarcations on a calibrated ruler.  
   
   
       6 . The apparatus of  claim 1  wherein said measuring device comprises a ruler and wherein said ruler demarcations are further apart than demarcations on a calibrated ruler.  
   
   
       7 . The apparatus of  claim 1  wherein said measuring device comprises a ruler and wherein said ruler demarcations are equal to demarcations on a calibrated ruler.  
   
   
       8 . The apparatus of  claim 1  wherein said measuring device comprises a ruler and wherein said ruler comprises numbers indicating measurement values.  
   
   
       9 . The apparatus of  claim 1  wherein said measuring device comprises a ruler and wherein said ruler does not comprise numbers indicating measurement values.  
   
   
       10 . The apparatus of  claim 1  wherein said garment comprises shorts.  
   
   
       11 . The apparatus of  claim 1  wherein said garment comprises shorts and wherein said measuring device is exposed when a fly area of said shorts is opened.  
   
   
       12 . The apparatus of  claim 1  wherein said garment comprises shorts and wherein said shorts comprise a series of snaps along each side of said shorts and wherein said shorts are configured to be removed rapidly by yanking said shorts away from a wearer's body thereby releasing said snaps.  
   
   
       13 . The apparatus of  claim 12  wherein said shorts comprise boxer shorts.  
   
   
       14 . The apparatus of  claim 1  wherein said garment comprises boxer shorts and wherein said measuring device is exposed on a waistband and wherein said boxer shorts are configured with a snap to secure said boxer shorts when said waistband is rolled down.  
   
   
       15 . The apparatus of  claim 1  wherein said garment comprises a bra or sports bra.  
   
   
       16 . The apparatus of  claim 1  wherein said garment comprises a sports bra and wherein said measuring device is exposed when each cup of said sports bar is pulled apart from one another.  
   
   
       17 . The apparatus of  claim 1  wherein said garment comprises pajamas or pants or a shirt or a sock.  
   
   
       18 . The apparatus of  claim 17  wherein comprises a sock top having a desired pattern and desired color and wherein said sock top is configured to overlap a top of a boot when said sock top is rolled down over said top of said boot and wherein said sock top then displays said desired pattern and said desired color around said top of said boot.  
   
   
       19 . A garment with an integrated measuring device comprising: 
 a piece of cloth formed into a garment that is wearable by a person; and,    said garment comprises shorts and wherein said shorts comprise a series of snaps along each side of said shorts and wherein said shorts are configured to be removed rapidly by yanking said shorts away from a wearer's body thereby releasing said snaps.    
   
   
       20 . A garment with an integrated measuring device comprising: 
 a piece of cloth formed into a garment that is wearable by a person; and,    said garment comprises a sock with a sock top having a desired pattern and desired color and wherein said sock top is configured to overlap a top of a boot when said sock top is rolled down over said top of said boot and wherein said sock top then displays said desired pattern and said desired color around said top of said boot.
