Abstract
Abstract An elastic belt comprising an elastic strip having its ends joined by a connection element including two leaves hinged along a folding line is made by disposing the connection element astride the oppositely directed ends of an elastic strip, fixing the edges of the said connection element adjacent to the respective ends of the strip, for example by stitching, and then turning the connection element so that the originally inwardly facing surfaces of its leaves face outwardly and vice versa.
