Provided is a closure device for the releasable connecting of two parts to each other including a first closure part, having a first base body, at least two first engaging sections formed on the first base body, spaced apart from each other along a loading direction and forming between them a gap, and at least one first magnetic section arranged on the first base body, and a second closure part, having a second base body, at least one second engaging section formed on the second base body, and at least one second magnetic section arranged on the second base body.

A tool-operated adjustment device includes a housing supporting a rotatable spool that is operably coupled to a tension line. The spool is configured to rotate about a first axis in a first direction to wind the tension line, and to rotate in a second direction opposite the first direction to unwind the tension line. The device includes a socket pivotally coupled to the housing and configured to rotate about a second axis. The socket is selectively coupled to the spool to drive rotation of the spool in the first direction. The socket is configured to removably connect and disconnect to a tool configured to rotate the socket about the second axis. The device includes a release mechanism that is configured to selectively release the spool such that the spool is free to rotate in either the first or second direction in response to manual forces applied to the release mechanism.

A weighted garment tab in the form of a weighted disk that has a fabric-safe and reusable adhesive on the back surface. The adhesive generally includes a cover or release member that protects it before application to the garment. This tab has a smooth, hard finish that does not catch onto or snag onto the dress fabric and is smaller, flatter, and smoother compared to the prior art devices mentioned above, so that it is much less noticeable to the wearer during use. Also, a method of preventing upward movement of a garment in an air current by applying one or more tabs onto the hem or lower portion of the inside of the garment.

A quick release protective equipment assembly is disclosed and may include a fabric sleeve adapted to be worn by an athlete and a piece of protective equipment removably attached to the fabric sleeve by one or more magnetic fasteners and one or magnets embedded in the fabric sleeve and the protective equipment.

Embodiments disclosed herein relate to magnetic fasteners capable of transitioning between a locked state and an unlocked state. In some embodiments, the magnetic fastener includes a first fastening portion and a second fastening portion configured to interface with one another. The first fastening portion may include a first pin with a channel configured to receive a second pin disposed on the second fastening portion. The channel may include a recess and the second pin may include a projection complementary to the recess such that the projection may be disposed within the recess when the respective central axes of the first and second fastening portions are offset. Thus, a portion of the recess may abut the projection when the respective central axes of the first and second fastening portions are offset, thus locking the first and second fastening portions relative to one another. Conversely, when the respective central axes of the first and second fastening portions are aligned, the projection may not be disposed within the recess, and accordingly, the first and second fastening portions may be capable of being unfastened from one another.

The disclosure relates to a garment comprising a lower torso portion comprising a front portion, a back portion, and a strap portion configured to couple the back portion and the front portion. The strap portion is fixed to one of the back portion or the front portion at one end thereof and free at the other end thereof, and the free end is configured for being removably coupled to the other of the front portion or back portion. The strap portion is configured for being circumferentially disposed over the pubis mound and between legs of the user. The strap portion comprises a first magnetic closure coupled to the free end thereof and the other of the front portion or back portion to which the strap portion is removably coupled comprises a second magnetic closure.

A securement assembly for a garment which includes a pocket positioned on a side panel of the garment. The securement assembly further includes an insert panel connected to a front portion of the garment such that the insert panel rotates relative to the front portion for inserting the insert panel into the pocket.

A worm drive fit system is provided, including a yoke member and a drive assembly, the drive assembly including a dial housing having an exterior and interior surface, wherein the interior surface includes a dial gear in operable engagement with a pinion gear. The drive assembly further includes a worm gear in operable engagement with the pinion gear, a spool gear in operable engagement with the worm gear, and a spool attached to the spool gear, wherein the spool is rotatably mounted to the yoke and configured to receive a filament to be tightened around the spool.
