Abstract

See full text

The preferred brace resides invisibly beneath and behind the user's shirt collar when not in use. When desired, the user can flip up his or her collar and an appendage from the brace, and thereby hold the shirt collar up. The brace includes an envelope-shaped member that attaches either permanently or detachably to the collar band of the user's shirt. The envelope forms an internal chamber between a pair of opposing wall members that are made from resilient material, such as plastic or the like. The base envelope is defined by an aperture formed therein, and through which protrudes a brace tab that is operable between a down position and an up position. In the up position, the brace tab will prop the users shirt collar flap up so as to cover the back of the user's neck.
