Abstract
A sealing arrangement for garments to sealingly connect an annular layer and a wearable layer to the sealing arrangement includes a sealing device and a reinforcement clip. The sealing device includes an annular sealing body and an annular base having inner and outer annular wall portions at least partly defining a recess in the annular base. The sealing device includes an annular sealing surface for sealingly connecting the annular layer to the annular base, and the annular sealing body is adapted to be locked into the recess to sealingly connect the wearable layer between the annular base and the annular sealing body. The reinforcement clip includes a sealing device locking portion arranged to be locked to the annular base, and a counteracting portion configured to, in use, counteract a relative movement of the outer and inner annular wall portions.
