Abstract

A configurable garment capable of being worn in a plurality of positions on a user, one of the plurality of positions including a combination of a scarf and a headband, wherein the configurable garment is formed from a unitary body section of material that includes at least two closed loop sections coupled together by a connection, the connection including at least one seam, is provided. An associated method is also provided.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . An apparatus comprising:
 a configurable garment capable of being worn in a plurality of positions on a user, one of the plurality of positions including a combination of a scarf and a headband;   wherein the configurable garment is formed from a unitary body section of material that includes at least two closed loop sections coupled together by a connection, the connection including at least one seam.   
     
     
         2 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the unitary body section of material of material is expandable. 
     
     
         3 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one seam is created by sewing a folded part of the unitary body to the rest of the unitary body. 
     
     
         4 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the at least two closed loop section move with respect to each other to achieve the plurality of positions without removing the configurable garment from the user's head. 
     
     
         5 . A configurable garment comprising:
 a unitary body section having a first end, a second end, a length, a width, a first side, and a second side, the unitary body being manipulated to form a first loop section and a second loop section, wherein the first loop section is formed by folding a first section of the unitary body proximate the first end of the unitary body towards the second end creating a first seam to attach the first section to the first side of the unitary body, and the second loop section is formed by folding a second section of the unitary body proximate the second end of the unitary body towards the first seam creating a second seam to attach the second section to the second side of the unitary body; and   a connection formed by the combination of the first seam and the second seam, the connection coupling the first loop section and the second loop section;   wherein the first loop section and the second loop section move with respect to each other to accommodate a plurality of wearable positions on a user.   
     
     
         6 . The configurable garment of  claim 5 , wherein, in a first wearable position of the plurality of wearable positions, the first loop section and the second loop section are both worn around the user's head. 
     
     
         7 . The configurable garment of  claim 5 , wherein, in a second wearable position of the plurality of wearable positions, the first loop section and the second loop section are both worn around the user's neck. 
     
     
         8 . The configurable garment of  claim 5 , wherein, in a third wearable position of the plurality of wearable positions, the first loop section is worn around the user's head and the second loop section is worn around the user's neck. 
     
     
         9 . The configurable garment of  claim 1 , wherein, in a fourth wearable position of the plurality of wearable positions, the first loop section is worn around the user's head and the second loop section is worn around the user's nose and mouth. 
     
     
         10 . The configurable garment of  claim 5 , wherein the unitary body is comprised of an expandable material. 
     
     
         11 . The configurable garment of  claim 5 , wherein the first loop section is smaller than the second loop section such that the first loop section fits within the second loop section. 
     
     
         12 . The configurable garment of  claim 5 , wherein the first side and the second side of the unitary body differ in at least one of color, pattern and exterior material finish. 
     
     
         13 . A configurable head and neck worn garment comprising:
 a single elongated linear strip of material having a first end, a second end, a length, a width, a first side, and a second side;   a first section of the single elongated linear strip of material being folded, originating at the first end of the single elongated linear strip of material and extending towards the second end of the single elongated linear strip of material, such that, after folding the first section, the first section is attached to the first side of the single elongated linear strip of material to create a first seamed connection transverse to the length of the single elongated linear strip of material;   a second section of the single elongated linear strip of material being folded, originating at the second end of the single elongated linear strip of material and extending towards the first seamed connection, such that, after folding the second section, the second section is attached to the second side of the single elongated linear strip of material to create a second seamed connection transverse to the length of the single elongated linear strip of material, wherein the first seamed connection is adjacent to the second seamed connection;   wherein the first seamed connection and the second seamed connection combine to form a connection, the connection coupling a first loop section and a second loop section, the first loop section and the second loop section being formed from the single strip of linear material,   wherein the first loop section and the second loop section are movable with respect to each other to accommodate a plurality of wearable positions on a user.   
     
     
         14 . The garment of  claim 13 , wherein, in a first wearable position of the plurality of wearable positions, the first loop section and the second loop section are both worn around the user's head. 
     
     
         15 . The garment of  claim 13 , wherein, in a second wearable position of the plurality of wearable positions, the first loop section and the second loop section are both worn around the user's neck. 
     
     
         16 . The garment of  claim 13 , wherein, in a third wearable position of the plurality of wearable positions, the first loop section is worn around the user's head and the second loop section is worn around the user's neck. 
     
     
         17 . The garment of  claim 13 , wherein, in a fourth wearable position of the plurality of wearable positions, the first loop section is worn around the user's head and the second loop section is worn around the user's nose and mouth. 
     
     
         18 . The garment of  claim 13 , wherein the single elongated linear strip of material is comprised of an expandable material. 
     
     
         19 . The garment of  claim 13 , wherein the first loop section is smaller than the second loop section such that the first loop section fits within the second loop section. 
     
     
         20 . The garment of  claim 13 , wherein the first loop section and the section loop section move with respect to each other to achieve the plurality of wearable positions without removing the single elongated linear strip of material from the user's head.
