ABSTRACT:
A vest adapted to be worn by a workman operating at perilous heights. The vest has straps between the lining and the outer fabric. The straps have crossed sections in the back of the garment and vertical sections in the front panels. The lower ends of the front and rear section are secured to a body embracing belt which is sewed to the fabric along the belt line. The upper end of each crossed section extends from one side of the vest to the other and has its upper end formed into a hooking loop with the upper end of the vertical section at that side of the vest, the loop projecting through an opening formed in the associated shoulder portion of the garment for connection to one end of flexible line which is adapted at its other end to be secured to structure at an elevation higher than where the workman is operating.
