Disclosed is a method of manufacturing yoga outer socks with a silicone band attached thereto by forming a temporary connection part using ultrasonic waves without a seam between an outer sock upper and a sole part, adhering hot melt to the temporary connection part via heat fusion, and then fusing a silicone band onto hot melt to prevent slipping of the heel. Accordingly, the yoga outer socks are manufactured by forming a temporary connection part with ultrasonic waves without a seam and then adhering hot melt to the temporary connection part via heat fusion to simplify manufacturing processes and to achieve excellent productivity.

Socks or stockings including integrated gripping systems include gripping material disposed on external surfaces of a sole of the sock and gripping material disposed on internal surfaces of the sock. In some examples, the integrated gripping systems comprise a first set of gripping dots comprising gripping material applied to external surfaces of the sole of the sock and a second set of gripping dots comprising gripping material applied to internal surfaces of the sole of the sock. In some examples, the integrated gripping systems comprise a knitted fabric including gripping yarn, which includes knitted gripping portions disposed on internal surfaces of the sock and external surfaces of the sock.

A nonwoven fabric layered body includes a first nonwoven fabric layer including a crimped fiber (A), which is a fiber made of a thermoplastic polymer and which has an average crimp diameter of 800 μm or less; and a hydrophilic agent.

A flexible band for a medical headgear comprises an inner surface, an opposite outer surface, and a non-stretch central portion having a friction pad disposed on the inner surface. The friction pad is formed from a grip or tacky material and is disposed at least partially between the inner surface and the outer surface of the non-stretch central portion in a solidified state of the friction pad.

The present arrangement includes a method for wet finishing a plant-based fabric. The method includes obtaining a plant-based fabric, subjecting the plant-based fabric to amino silicone oil bath for a first predetermined amount of time, and subsequently subjecting the plant-based fabric to a silicone emulsion bath for a second predetermined amount of time.
