ABSTRACT:
In accordance with the invention, protective coveralls are provided which are easy to put on and take off. The coveralls include a one-piece main suit with arm and leg portions connected to a torso portion having shoulder areas and a neck opening. The main suit includes a slit-like opening extending downwardly from the neck opening adjacent the uppermost area of one shoulder diagonally across the front of the torso portion to the opposite upper leg. A zipper is provided for closing the slit-like opening and an elongate flap is attached to the main suit along and adjacent to the zipper at one side of the opening to cover the zipper. Complementary hook and loop fastening tapes having a width at least 2 cm wide are used for securing the flap to the suit covering the zipper. The coveralls also have an unattached extension of the elongate flap which overlaps further over the opposite side of the opening with the unattached extension being unattached from the main suit along a predominant portion of its length. The unattached extension provides a hand grip to assist in gripping the flap to detach the complementary hook and loop fastening tapes securing the flap to the suit.
