Abstract
Abstract A multifunctional outergarment such as a coat or jacket includes a plurality of different outer shell or frame members and a reversible heat insulating liner member separably attachable to a selected shell or frame member with either face exposed. The liner member has different faces and is provided along its side and top edges with a first slide fastener stringer which terminates in similar coupling pins. The second slide fastener stringer is secured to the inside face of the shell member and mates and complements the first stringer and terminates at one end in a coupling socket and carries a slider.
