Abstract
A garment, and a method of constructing garments, is disclosed which substantially alleviates or eliminates sources of abrasion which hitherto caused holes in the garment substrate adjacent to pockets. The method includes one or more steps of reducing the number of fabric plies in the upper corner of pockets to increase flexibility and eliminate point abrasion, increasing the distance between the peripheral stitching line and the peripheral edge of the pocket to increase the flexibility of the peripheral edge of the pocket and eliminate line abrasion, decreasing the stitch density in bar tacks whereby the stitch hole made by each stitch in a bar tack is distinct and separate from the stitch holes made by other stitches in the bar tack, and eliminating over edge stitches which tie the pocket to the garment substrate.
