Abstract
A garment for wear by the operator of a sport motor vehicle includes a map access pocket system disposed on or formed as part of an outer surface of the garment. This map access pocket system is configured to present a map to the wearer of the garment in a convenient orientation to be easily read when the map access pocket system is opened. The map access pocket system includes features which improve readability of the map by presenting the map aligned along a line of sight of the wearer of the garment, and other features which discourage the wearer of the garment from attempting to read the map while the vehicle is in motion. The map access pocket system also provides for storage of small items which are easily accessed by the operator of the vehicle. Both the map and other small items stored in the map access pocket system are protected from water, moisture, snow, and other elements commonly encountered in operation of sport motor vehicles.
