Apparatus to prevent removal of an article of clothing by a young child

摘要

A loss prevention mechanism may be attached to an article of clothing to prevent the removal of the article and/or at least one covering worn by the child. One implementation has a first connector coupled to a first covering, the first connector having a connector capable of forming a connection with a second covering, and a second connector coupled to the first connector and the first covering, wherein the second covering is positioned in a proximity to the first covering. The covering(s) may be any number of type of covering including socks, shoes, gloves, mittens, hats, and the like. The coupling mechanism is easy to operate yet requires a combination of skills not often exhibited by young children. Further, the components are all interconnected thereby preventing separation of and choking on any of the components.
