A video recording device, holster and article of clothing are disclosed to reliably and covertly provide for the capture of video, audio, and metadata, and perform other commands. The holster may be provided with a carrier that is, in turn, inserted into the holster. In one embodiment, the holster may be confirmed as being associated with the video recording device to authenticate a user, and establishes a docked position. Moreover, the video recording device may enter a mode of operation associated with using the video recording apparatus automatically when inserted into a holster.

An insulated garment for covering an upper body of a patient comprising: an article of clothing having a neck opening, a first sleeve opening, a second sleeve opening, a lower opening, wherein a hood is attached to the neck opening and a first and a second resealable clasp are incorporated into the article of clothing distal to the neck opening; a first sleeve having a first end and second end and is attached to the first sleeve opening of the vest at the first end, wherein a third resealable clasp is integrated into the first opening of the first sleeve and the resealable clasp permits the formation of more than one opening; and a second sleeve, wherein a fourth resealable clasp is integrated into the second opening of the second sleeve and the resealable clasp permits the formation of more than one opening.

A garment including a plurality of attached glove members having releasably attached glove bodies is provided. The garment includes a central portion and two opposed sleeve portions. Each attached glove member is attached to each opposed sleeve portion through the use of a retainer. The glove members may be used separately or together, allowing the user to deploy a combination of glove members simultaneously.

Aspects herein provide methods of transforming a stowable article of apparel for an upper torso of a wearer. The article of apparel comprises a first tensioning mechanism superior to and parallel with a waist opening, and a second tensioning mechanism coincident with the waist opening and spaced apart from the first tensioning mechanism. An upper half of the article of apparel is doffed. The waist opening is folded upward toward the first tensioning mechanism forming a pouch between the first and second tensioning mechanisms where the upper half of the article of apparel is stowed. The second tensioning mechanism is tensioned, thereby stowing the article of apparel in the pouch around the wearer.

A garment includes a first material layer including a first surface, a second material layer laminated to the first material layer, where the second material layer includes a second surface, and a laminate material disposed in a non-continuous manner between the first and second surfaces of the first and second material layers. An amount of laminate material disposed between the first and second material layers varies at different zones defined along the first surface of the first material layer. The laminate material can be applied via a dot lamination process so as to form an array of laminate dots that varies by one or more of spacing between laminate dots, dimensions of laminate dots and shapes of laminate dots at the different zones.

A thermal camouflage garment containing at least two zones, each zone containing a thermal camouflage fabric. The camouflage fabrics each contain a printed layer. In at least 90% of the wavelengths between 400-700 nm at least one of the first, second, and third color deltas are less than about 10 percentage points, and wherein at 1 μm and 2 μm and the average over 3-5 μm, average over 8-12 μm the first, at least one of the first, second, and third color deltas are greater than about 15 percentage points. The first zone makes up at least about 10% of the outer surface area of the thermal camouflage garment and the second zone makes up at least about 10% of the outer surface area of the thermal camouflage garment.

The umbrella holding coat device is intended to provide users with coats that have an external umbrella pocket to store a wet umbrella within the coat. The device allows users to externally store their wet or damp umbrella when they arrive at home, office, school, or when entering an establishment. Further, the umbrella pocket provides users a location to store a wet or damp umbrella as well as allow it to dry without leaking or spilling water. To accomplish this, the device includes an umbrella pocket with multiple layers and functionalities. Furthermore, the device provides a central location for umbrella storage and negates the need to use umbrella canisters. Similar to other coats, the umbrella holding coat device may be stored in closets, coat racks, or similar locations after taking it off and thereby allow the umbrella pocket to protect and dry the umbrella.
