BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] This invention relates to an improved article of clothing, specifically, a pocketed sweatshirt. [0003] Sweatshirts and t-shirts are very popular articles of clothing today. Many people, such as construction workers, wear t-shirts in warm climates and seasons and sweatshirts in cold climates and seasons. In the warmer climates and seasons, the construction workers generally wear t-shirts which have a pocket in the breast area of the shirt which allows them to hold pencils, notepads, cigarettes, and other items. However, during a cool season or in a cool climate, the worker must reach underneath the cover of a jacket or sweatshirt to a pocket on his t-shirt in order to gain access to items held in the t-shirt pocket. This can be a very difficult thing when workers are working in high places, suspended from a harness assembly or etc. Sometimes, when the worker is suspended from a harness assembly, it is difficult to gain access to a t-shirt pocket storing his items under a sweatshirt or jacket. Additionally, the worker can even drop the items if the worker snags the items on the shirt collar or waistband while pulling them out from under a sweatshirt or jacket. Therefore, it is desirable to improve the state of the art. [0004] In light of the foregoing, the primary feature or advantage of the current invention is to provide an improved pocketed sweatshirt.
