RELATED CASES

[0001] This application is based upon and claims priority under 35 USC .sctn.119(e) to Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 60/791,828 filed on Apr. 13, 2006, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein in its entirety.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] 1. Field of the Invention

[0003] The present invention relates generally to a necktie item holder, and more particularly, to a necktie including a convenient storage feature.

[0004] 2. Description of the Related Art

[0005] Neckties are worn by millions of people all over the world. Societies have associated the necktie with a higher degree of professionalism, thereby becoming an essential part of proper business attire. In addition, neckties, such as ascots, bolas, bow ties, etc., have become a part of fashion trends for both men and women.

[0006] Over the decades, the necktie has evolved from a common bow tie during the 19.sup.th century to the more complex ascot tie during the 1880's, and even more so in the 1940's with the development of the bola tie.

[0007] Although the necktie design has somewhat evolved over the years, the underlying design premise, to enhance an aesthetic appeal of the wearer, has remained constant. FIG. 1 illustrates a back view of a conventional neckwear apparatus of the prior art. As illustrated, the neckwear apparatus 1 includes a body portion 2 formed from at least one section of fabric, such that a front surface (not shown) and a back surface 3 are relatively smooth. The neckwear apparatus 1 may include a loop (not shown), in which to insert one end of the body portion, and a label (not shown) disposed on the back surface. The conventional neckwear apparatus 1 is free from any additional structural features or components.

[0008] Undoubtedly, improvements and advancements in technology have led to the miniaturization of complex electronic devices. Just a few years ago, phones, radios, compact disc players, etc. were typically household items because of their large size. Now, these same household luxuries such as cellular phones, music players, voice recorders, etc., have become portable necessities for many consumers.

[0009] However, as consumers accumulate more and more of these portable electronic devices and other such items, the amount of locations in which these devices can be conveniently stored, used and recharged, are reduced. Thus, consumers have a limited number of pockets within which to simultaneously store and use a multitude of essential items.

[0010] Thus, in order to resolve the abovementioned problems, what is needed is a convenient apparatus, in which these essential items may be stored, used and recharged.

BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0011] The present invention provides a neckwear apparatus including a concealed receptacle for storage and use of items disposed therein.

[0012] The present invention also provides a method of manufacturing a neckwear apparatus including a concealed receptacle for storage and use of items disposed therein.

[0013] In an exemplary embodiment, a neckwear apparatus includes a body portion including a front side and a rear side and a receptacle disposed on the body portion, wherein the receptacle is defined by opposing right and left side-walls, a front face and a bottom side, a surface of the receptacle includes a transparent portion.

[0014] In an exemplary embodiment, a method of manufacturing a neckwear apparatus includes forming a body portion including a front side and a rear side and disposing a receptacle on the body portion, wherein the receptacle is defined by opposing right and left side-walls, a front face and a bottom side, a surface of the receptacle includes a transparent portion.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
