The present disclosure describes a garment, such as a shirt, having first and second sleeves, each of which comprises a sleeve retention mechanism that includes (a) a button affixed to an exterior surface of the sleeve and (b) a tab loop affixed to an interior surface of the sleeve. The shirt is configured so that, when the sleeve is rolled up, i.e. when the distal end of the sleeve is folded outward and toward the proximal end of the sleeve, a predetermined number of times, the tab loop is positioned substantially adjacent to the exterior button so that the tab loop may be secured to the button to retain the sleeve in the rolled-up position.

Shoulder transfer weight support

A wearable weight support that transfers the weight of heavy garments that rely on shoulder support, off of the shoulders to the hips of the user. The device provides additional posterior radiation protection to the wearer as the back support can be made from radio-opaque materials. The device also provides lumbar support and results in less body heat containment through natural venting. The device is easily adjustable to any body type and allows the wearer to move more freely in their work environment. The invention can be used to transfer the weight of a backpack or other systems which rely on shoulder support to function.
