Multi-component coverall

Abstract

A multi-component coverall includes a jacket portion. The jacket portion includes an upper shell portion, a circumferential skirt portion coupled to the upper shell portion, and a circumferential draft guard positioned within the circumferential skirt portion. A pant portion is releasably couplable to the circumferential draft guard.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A multi-component coverall comprising:
 a jacket portion including:
 an upper shell portion, 
 a circumferential skirt portion coupled to the upper shell portion, and 
 a circumferential draft guard positioned within the circumferential skirt portion; and 
   a pant portion releasably couplable to the circumferential draft guard.   
     
     
         2 . The multi-component coverall of  claim 1  wherein the pant portion includes a lower portion of a circumferential zipper assembly. 
     
     
         3 . The multi-component coverall of  claim 2  wherein the circumferential draft guard includes an upper portion of the circumferential zipper assembly configured to releasably engage the lower portion of the circumferential zipper assembly included on the pant portion. 
     
     
         4 . The multi-component coverall of  claim 3  wherein the circumferential draft guard is longitudinally shorter than the circumferential skirt portion. 
     
     
         5 . The multi-component coverall of  claim 3  wherein the circumferential skirt portion is configured to obscure the circumferential draft guard and the circumferential zipper assembly. 
     
     
         6 . The multi-component coverall of  claim 1  wherein the circumferential draft guard is constructed of a lighter weight material. 
     
     
         7 . The multi-component coverall of  claim 6  wherein the lighter weight material is a knit material. 
     
     
         8 . The multi-component coverall of  claim 1  wherein the circumferential skirt portion is constructed of a heavier weight material. 
     
     
         9 . The multi-component coverall of  claim 8  wherein the heavier weight material is a woven material. 
     
     
         10 . The multi-component coverall of  claim 1  wherein the upper shell portion and the circumferential skirt portion include a longitudinal zipper assembly for longitudinally closing the upper shell portion and the circumferential skirt portion. 
     
     
         11 . The multi-component coverall of  claim 1  wherein the circumferential draft guard includes a longitudinal closure assembly for longitudinally closing the circumferential draft guard. 
     
     
         12 . The multi-component coverall of  claim 11  wherein the longitudinal closure assembly includes a hook and loop fastener system. 
     
     
         13 . The multi-component coverall of  claim 1  wherein the multi-component coverall is constructed, at least in part, of a flame retardant material. 
     
     
         14 . The multi-component coverall of  claim 1  wherein the multi-component coverall is constructed, at least in part, of a ballistic material. 
     
     
         15 . A multi-component coverall comprising:
 a jacket portion including:
 an upper shell portion, 
 a circumferential skirt portion coupled to the upper shell portion, and 
 a circumferential draft guard positioned within the circumferential skirt portion; and 
   a pant portion releasably couplable to the circumferential draft guard;   wherein:
 the multi-component coverall is constructed, at least in part, of a flame retardant material, 
 the circumferential draft guard is constructed of a knit material, and 
 the circumferential skirt portion is constructed of a woven material. 
   
     
     
         16 . The multi-component coverall of  claim 15  wherein the circumferential draft guard is longitudinally shorter than the circumferential skirt portion. 
     
     
         17 . The multi-component coverall of  claim 15  wherein the circumferential skirt portion is configured to obscure the circumferential draft guard. 
     
     
         18 . The multi-component coverall of  claim 15  wherein the upper shell portion and the circumferential skirt portion include a longitudinal zipper assembly for longitudinally closing the upper shell portion and the circumferential skirt portion. 
     
     
         19 . A multi-component coverall comprising:
 a jacket portion including:
 an upper shell portion, 
 a circumferential skirt portion coupled to the upper shell portion, and 
 a circumferential draft guard positioned within the circumferential skirt portion, the circumferential draft guard including an upper portion of 
   a circumferential zipper assembly; and   a pant portion releasably couplable to the circumferential draft guard, the pant portion including a lower portion of the circumferential zipper assembly configured to releasably engage the upper portion of a circumferential zipper assembly included on the circumferential draft guard;   wherein the multi-component coverall is constructed, at least in part, of a flame retardant material.   
     
     
         20 . The multi-component coverall of  claim 19  wherein the circumferential skirt portion is configured to obscure the circumferential draft guard and the circumferential zipper assembly.
