DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The present invention relates to a removable pocket system for jeans. The removable pocket system according to present invention includes pockets that are lined with snaps that snap into place onto a pair of jeans. Receiving snaps are provided on the jeans to receive snaps that are along the perimeter of the pockets. Once snapped in place the snaps are not visible on the outside surface of the jeans or pockets and therefore the pockets may easily blend in with the surface of the jeans. This system allows the individual to remove pockets as stated for decorative purposes. Further the pockets may come in various sizes to accommodate different size jeans as for instance jeans for children.
With respect to FIG. 1, a depiction of a pair of jeans 30 in accordance with the present invention is shown. These jeans 30 include a rear section 34 that displays pocket areas 20 a, 20 b. The pocket areas 20 a, 20 b allow for the placement of pockets onto a series of bottom snaps 38 that are aligned on the backside 34. These bottom snaps 38 receive snaps that are coordinated on a pocket 40 as shown in FIG. 1. The pocket 40 includes a series of snaps 45 along the perimeter of the pocket 40. The pocket 40 further has a backside 42 that clearly depicts the top snaps 45. The pocket 40 provides an exemplary pocket in accordance with the present invention. An outside surface 44 is also shown in FIG. 1. The outside surface 44 may include any desired decorative design for application over the outside surface 40. A pocket opening 43 is also provided and shown in FIG. 1.
The pocket area 20 a, 20 b includes a reinforced fabric 37 within the interior of the pocket area. This reinforced fabric 37 provides strong support for the attachment and removal of pockets in the pocket area. Further a front side 32 is also shown in FIG. 1. The front side 32 of jeans 30 also has a front pocket 23 that functions similarly to the back pockets described above. Therefore, a user has pockets that may be interchanged through the system in accordance with the present invention. One additional feature of the present invention is the ability to add a decorative attachment 26 or a decorative surface 46. In this particular embodiment, the attachment 26 includes a snap 27 at the center, however more than one snap may be necessary based upon the attachment 26 or surface 46 overall size. The snap 27 adjoins to a bottom snap 29 as shown in FIG. 1. The bottom snap 29 may be surrounded by reinforced fabric 28 to have a strong, stable fabric area to support decorative attachment 26 and enable the decorative attachment 26 to function as a pocket. The surface 46 demonstrates an exemplary shape of a decorative surface available for use with the present invention. The shape of the surface 46 may vary in shape or form and is attachable to the jeans 30 in place of a full pocket. The system in accordance with the present invention may be used on any type of designer jeans and therefore an individual may also purchase additional pockets and decorative attachments with different styling and colors to add to their particular collection.
