| Abstract: |
A protective garment including a body section made of a material which generates a minimum of lint with two sleeves having hand openings. Each of the hand openings includes an elastic portion about a portion of the opening, an elastomeric button, and a plurality of buttonholes spaced around the other portion of the opening, whereby the hand opening may be adjusted between a selected number of sizes by selectively engaging the button with a selected one of the buttonholes. A pocket is defined in the garment with an interior side adjacent a wearer and an outer side adjacent the garment. An opening allows access to the pocket from the outside of the garment with a flap extending across the pocket opening and disposed between the interior and outer sides of the pocket and overlapping with the pocket interior side in a normal condition. An opening between the flap and the pocket interior side allow access to the garment interior from the outside of the garment. A waist adjuster includes an elastic portion about a portion of the waist of the torso section, a flap secured at one end to the waist of the torso section on the interior side of the body section and including a first snap at the other end, and a plurality of mating snaps spaced about the waist of the torso section on the interior side of the body section, whereby the waist of the torso section may be adjusted between a selected number of sizes by selectively engaging the first snap with a selected one of the mating snaps. The leg openings are provided with snaps on the front outer portion of the leg and a plurality of mating snaps spaced about the rear of the leg whereby the leg openings may be adjusted by selectively engaging the first snap with a selected one of the mating snaps to form a fold substantially in the rear of the leg.
