A wearable device is provided which redirects perspiration away from a user's hands, feet and other extremities. The device may be fashioned as a band which is equipped with a channel structure extending around the entire surface of the band. The channel structure includes a channel base and a channel lip. The channel structure forms a perspiration channel with a flared lip. The channel base has a first thickness T.sub.c at a central portion thereof, and a second thickness T.sub.e at end portions thereof, wherein T.sub.e<T.sub.c. The channel base slopes from the central portion downward toward the end portions thereof, transitioning from the first thickness T.sub.c to the second thickness T.sub.e. In some embodiments, the device is equipped with at least one pointed tip which directs the flow of perspiration away from the user's extremities. In some embodiments, when the device is not being used as a perspiration deflector, it may be used as a flying toy which can be thrown and caught.

An apparel top for use by a user is worn about a user torso and a user waist. The top includes an outer shell portion having first and second panels, a back panel, shell outside and inside surfaces, and a bottom edge. The apparel top includes a snow gaiter having upper and lower gaiter edges, first and second gaiter ends, and gaiter inner and outer surfaces. The upper gaiter edge is attached to the outer shell portion at the shell inside surface and extends along the first front panel, the back panel and the second front panel. The lower gaiter edge is generally positionable about the user waist relative to the user torso with the lower gaiter edge extending away from the user torso. The top includes a liquid bladder sized and configured to be inflated with a liquid. The liquid bladder is attached to the snow gaiter.

A wearable motorcycle heat-shield, intended for use by a rider in order to prevent burns from the exhaust pipes of the motorcycle. The wearable motorcycle heat-shield is comprised of a planar central heat-shield with a planar fabric region disposed on either side. The planar fabric regions are temporarily attachable through the use of hook-and-loop fasteners, or other temporary fastening means. The planar central heat-shield is comprised of a heat-shield laminate covered with a heat-shield cover. The heat shield laminate contains at least one radiant-heat-reflecting layer, such as a foil, and at least one layer of thermally resistant material, such as woven or nonwoven thermally resistive felt.

A motorcycle thermal protective leg covering for preventing motorcycle related leg burns includes a pair of tubular leg sleeves each having an upper aperture, a lower aperture, a lateral side, and a medial side. Each of the pair of leg sleeves is configured to be worn by a user from the ankle to the knee. Each of the pair of leg sleeves comprises a plurality of layers configured to prevent burns from a motorcycle to the user's legs. A pair of stirrups is coupled to the pair of leg sleeves and is configured to pass underneath the user's feet and prevent the pair of leg sleeves from moving. Each of the pair of stirrups has a lateral end coupled to the lateral side adjacent the lower aperture and a medial end coupled to the medial side adjacent the lower aperture.

An interchangeable over-ankle band for the display of an ornamental design on the outside of a lower leg of a wearer. The interchangeable over ankle band including a lower leg cuff having two loose ends, the ends each including fasteners configured to selectively couple the lower leg cuff into a loop surrounding the wearer's lower leg, the lower leg cuff further including an outer surface operating as a substrate for the display of an ornamental design or logo, an interchangeable over-ankle band having a supporting layer coupled to the lower leg cuff with a rigidity greater than that of the lower leg cuff, wherein the bottom edge of the supporting layer is coupled to a ring member, which is in turn coupled with an adjustable-length stirrup strap, enabling the wearer to adjust the stirrup strap to snugly fit her or his footwear outsole.

A footgear barrier and a foot covering incorporating a footgear barrier. The footgear barrier is sized and shaped to be placed around a user's ankle and over the footgear, such as an athletic shoe, to block the gaps between the user's ankle and the footwear and reduce the amount of debris that may pass through the gaps. The footgear barrier may be incorporated within a foot cover such as a sock, such that the barrier is secured within an upper portion of the sock.
