Patent Application
20210150601
This application claims the priority benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2019-0149500 filed on Nov. 20, 2019, which is incorporated herein by reference for all purposes as if fully set forth herein.
The present disclosure relates to a method of selling an adjustable garment, and more particularly to a method of selling an adjustable garment in which a customer directly chooses desired material, color, and design of each part of a clothing product to make a single product and checks in advance and purchases combinations of desired parts of the clothing product online.
It is recognized that clothing can have a variety of variations due to its flexibility, but new clothing should be actually purchased according to the season, human body shape, or weight changes, etc. Further, the reality is that it is difficult to properly respond to various requests of people who feel cold or heat due to a difference in a temperature between day and night during one day.
Due to such problems, there is a need for a garment that is not fixed in one shape or one size and can be variously modified. Recently, various types of adjustable garments have been developed.
As a representative adjustable garment, there are known so-called a reversible garment that can be worn in two different colors and textures when turned inside out to create a variety of fashions, a detachable garment of which a specific part is detachable, and a garment of which a length or a width of a specific part can extend or shorten.
In case of the detachable garment, for example, Korean Patent No. 10-1656728 discloses a multi-variation garment that has an advantage of being able to create a garment with various feelings by means of a single garment because parts of the garment, such as a sleeve, a collar, a waist lower part, and a bottom garment, are detachable and a sleeve length, a shape of neckline, a length of the garment, etc. can be variously modified.
In addition, Korean Utility Model No. 455496 discloses a functional sports garment of which sleeve or part of the sleeve, a hat, etc. can be detach or deployed.
However, because most of the related art adjustable garments have variations using a method of detaching or reattaching an attached part such as sleeve, collar, and hat attached to the torso using a connection means such as a zipper, there is a problem that it is cumbersome to detach or reattach the part consisting of several pieces.
It is cumbersome to separately store the detached part after the detaching. In this case, the smaller the size and the more pieces are. Hence, there was a high risk of losing some pieces of the detached part.
An object of the present disclosure is to address the above-described and other needs and/or problems.
Another object of the present disclosure is to provide a method of selling an adjustable garment in which a customer directly chooses desired material, color, and design of each part of a clothing product to make a single product and checks in advance and purchases a combination of desired parts of the clothing product online.
