Abstract: |
A sock having a pocket supported inside its leg portion. A first vertical slit opening in the sock provides access to the pocket within the sock and that opening is closed by a zipper. The pocket has a corresponding slit opening in one wall and the margins of the slit opening in the pocket are stitched along the margins of the two tracks of the zipper closure at the opposite sides of the slit opening in the sock. That is the only securement of the pocket to the sock, avoiding additional stitching or fastening of the pocket to the leg portion of the sock. The pocket is large enough and wide enough to hold needed objects.
