The Extra Pockets

Abstract

The Extra Pockets are a series of like hanging extra pockets made of different sizes, fabrics, and hanging devices. Like pockets on various articles of clothing, the purpose of The Extra Pockets is to hold items normally held in one's pockets, and/or one's pocketbooks, in an extra pocket which hangs on, or from multiple adjuncts. And depending on how and where The Extra Pockets will be used, series of like hanging extra pockets will be made specifically for those purposes (for example: home; office; beach/pool; hospital stay; gym locker; car; and jogging/walking).

1 . The Extra Pockets are a series of hanging extra pockets, with each series having the same basic design, and all having: a strong and bendable plastic insert with multiple holes throughout to allow the fabric, which encompasses the plastic, to breath; an attachment for hanging (permanent, or detachable); one or more pockets; fabric which correlates to the intended use within a series of extra hanging pockets; and since The Extra Pockets' size will be ‘pocket sized’ based on pockets of articles of clothing (slacks, overcoats, etc.), it would stand to reason that each series be made in multiple sizes (small, and or medium, and or large, and or extra-large), as pockets on a pair of slacks made for a person who is six-foot-six, would be larger than the pockets on a pair of slacks made for a person who is five-foot-six.

The basic design of The Extra Pockets of  claim 1  will always start with a plastic insert (depicted on page 1|15,  FIG. 1 ), and only have differences as a result of the hanging devices, the fabric chosen for its' intended usage, and the number of pockets within each series of hanging extra pockets as shown in the following focused series of The Extra Pockets:
