Elongated Adjustable Pocket Assembly

Abstract

An elongated length adjustable pocket assembly attaches to a garment surface of a garment to hold items. The pocket has an elongated configuration for retaining long objects. The pocket is defined by a top edge that can be length adjusted along the garment surface through a male fastener that attaches to corresponding female fasteners at incremental attachment points along the longitudinal of the garment surface, so as to increase or decrease the length of the pocket. One or more male fasteners are disposed at the corners of the top edge of the front panel of the pocket. The male fasteners face inwardly so that they can detachably fasten to corresponding upper and lower female fasteners that position at incremental heights on a garment outer surface, so as to enable the top edge of the pocket to fasten at different heights on the garment surface; and thereby length-adjust the pocket.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An elongated length adjustable pocket assembly, the assembly comprising:
 a front panel defined by a top edge, a pair of lateral edges, a bottom edge, an outer side, and an inner side, the front panel disposed in a parallel relationship with a garment surface having at least one female fastener disposed on at least one attachment point,   whereby an opening forms between the top edge of the front panel and the garment surface; and   at least one male fastener disposed at the top edge of the front panel, the male fastener detachably attaching to at least one corresponding female fastener on the garment surface, whereby the top edge of the pocket attaches to multiple incremental attachment points on the garment surface.   
     
     
         2 . The assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the male fastener comprises a snap button. 
     
     
         3 . The assembly of  claim 2 , wherein the female fastener comprises a snap button receiver. 
     
     
         4 . The assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the opening at the top edge of the front panel is perpendicular to a seam extending along a length of a pant leg. 
     
     
         5 . The assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the front panel is rectangular. 
     
     
         6 . The assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the front panel is fabricated from a resilient material. 
     
     
         7 . The assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one male fastener comprises two spaced-apart male fasteners disposed in alignment. 
     
     
         8 . The assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one female fastener comprises two spaced-apart female fasteners disposed in alignment at a full-length attachment point on the garment surface. 
     
     
         9 . The assembly of  claim 8 , wherein the female fastener comprises at least one upper female fastener disposed on the full-length attachment point, the upper female fastener being detachably attachable to the male fastener, whereby the front panel extends fully when the male fastener attaches to the upper female fastener. 
     
     
         10 . The assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one female fastener comprises two spaced-apart female fasteners disposed in alignment at a half-length attachment point on the garment surface. 
     
     
         11 . The assembly of  claim 10 , wherein the female fastener comprises at least one lower female fastener disposed on the half-length attachment point, the lower female fastener being detachably attachable to the male fastener, whereby the front panel folds down in half to attach the male fastener to the lower female fastener. 
     
     
         12 . The assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one female fastener comprises two spaced-apart female fasteners disposed in alignment at a quarter-length attachment point on the garment surface. 
     
     
         13 . The assembly of  claim 12 , wherein the lower female fastener is disposed on the quarter-length attachment point, the lower female fastener being detachably attachable to the male fastener, whereby the front panel folds down three-quarters to attach the male fastener to the lower female fastener. 
     
     
         14 . The assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the attachment point of the female fastener is at an outside thigh area on one leg of the pants. 
     
     
         15 . The assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the male and female fasteners includes at least one of the following: a magnet, a zipper, a hook and loop fastener, and a friction fit mechanism. 
     
     
         16 . The assembly of  claim 1 , wherein the front panel is defined by two top corners and two bottom corners. 
     
     
         17 . The assembly of  claim 16 , wherein two male fasteners join with corresponding female fasteners at the two top corners of the front panel. 
     
     
         18 . The assembly of  claim 17 , wherein two anchor fasteners join with the two bottom corners of the front panel, the anchor fasteners fixedly joining the front panel to the garment surface. 
     
     
         19 . An elongated length adjustable pocket assembly, the assembly comprising:
 a resilient, rectangular-shaped front panel defined by a top edge, a pair of lateral edges, a bottom edge, two top corners, two bottom corners, an outer side, and an inner side,   the front panel disposed in a parallel relationship with a garment surface having multiple female fasteners disposed on multiple incremental attachment points,   the attachment points comprising a full-length attachment point, a half-length attachment point, and a quarter-length attachment point,   whereby an opening forms between the top edge of the front panel and the garment surface;   two anchor fasteners joining with the two bottom corners of the front panel, the anchor fasteners fixedly joining the front panel to the garment surface; and   at least one male fastener disposed at the top edge of the front panel, the male fastener detachably attaching to at least one corresponding female fastener on the garment surface, whereby the top edge of the pocket attaches to incremental attachment points on the garment surface.   
     
     
         20 . An elongated length adjustable pocket assembly, the assembly consisting of:
 a resilient, rectangular-shaped front panel defined by a top edge, a pair of lateral edges, a bottom edge, two top corners, and two bottom corners, an outer side, and an inner side,   the front panel disposed in a parallel relationship with a garment surface having multiple female snap button receivers disposed on multiple attachment points,   the attachment points comprising a full-length attachment point, a half-length attachment point, and a quarter-length attachment point,   whereby an opening forms between the top edge of the front panel and the garment surface;   two anchor fasteners joining with the two bottom corners of the front panel, the anchor fasteners fixedly joining the front panel to the garment surface; and   at least one male snap button disposed at the inner side and top edge of the front panel, the male snap button detachably attaching to at least one corresponding female snap button receiver on the garment surface, whereby the top edge of the pocket attaches to multiple incremental attachment points along the longitudinal of the garment surface.
