Abstract
A sleeper with an integral sock foot sewn directly to the sleeper instead of a traditional fabric constructed sock. The sock is made of stretchable material and is sized and shaped to contract into a snug and tight manner around the child's foot rather than loosely surrounding the foot, as it is the case with conventional footed sleeper.
Claims7
A footed infant sleeper for a young child, comprising a garment body including a pair of leg portions adapted to loosely surround the child's legs, and a pair of foot hugging knitted, sretchable socks attached by a seam to respective distal ends of said leg portions and being sized and shaped to cover the child's feet in a snug fit manner so as to apply a compressive retention force on the feet of the child, thereby preventing the child's feet from moving out of the socks and becoming drawn into the leg portions of the footed sleeper while the child is wearing the footed sleeper, wherein each of said foot hugging knitted, stretchable socks is of a one-piece construction.
A footed infant sleeper for a young child, comprising a garment body made of a first fabric material to loosely cover the child's body, arms and legs, and a pair of socks made of a different material than that of said garment body, said socks being permanently attached to said garment body and being stretchable to provide a snug fit of the socks to the child's feet, thereby providing a compressive retention force opposing withdrawal of the feet from the socks, wherein each sock is of a one piece construction.
A footed infant sleeper for a young child, comprising a garment body having a pair of leg portions adapted to surround the child's legs in a loosely fining manner, and a pair of stretchable socks permanently connected to said leg portions to apply a compressive retention force on the feet of the child to retain the feet against slipping out of the socks into the leg portions of the sleeper while the child is wearing the footed sleeper, wherein each of said stretchable socks is of a one piece construction.
