Water-repellent fabric and water-repellent down product comprising the same
A method of preparing a water-repellent and moisture-permeable fabric, includes: preparing a water-repellent fabric by: immersing a raw fabric in a non-fluorinated water-repellent emulsion containing a non-fluorinated water repellent and an aqueous blocked polyisocyanate crosslinking agent; and drying and curing the raw fabric, which has been immersed, at a temperature of 150° C. to 200° C.; applying a polyurethane-based moisture-permeable coating liquid to the water-repellent fabric; and drying the water-repellent fabric while increasing a temperature from 100° C. to 150° C.

Vented Garment
The technology described herein relates to breathable, vented, and insulating garments. More particularly, the technology described herein relates to garments with chambers to retain an insulating fill material. Openings along seams between the insulating chambers may achieve evaporative moisture or air transfer from the inside (proximal to the body of a wearer) of the garment to the outside environment. In an aspect, the garments comprise one or more insulated zones provided with one or more vented-insulation sections provided at locations on the garment configured to align with one or more areas of a wearer's body that are more sensitive to environmental conditions (e.g. temperature) and/or are prone to faster heat loss.

Inflatable Coveralls Transforms into a Chair to Lift a Fallen Person
Inflatable coveralls provide individuals, who fall frequently, with protection and independence. The coveralls consist of pads on the shoulders and hips to reduce the impact of a fall on the person. When worn and located underneath the fallen person, the coveralls can be inflated with air into a chair, creating a higher platform from which the person can more easily get up. This reduces the dependence these individuals have on a caregiver. Users can fasten the coveralls using hook & loop or magnets, instead of buttons or zippers, because it is easier to wear and they automatically open from the increase in air pressure of the inflated coveralls. Made of lightweight and air-impermeable material, the inflatable coveralls pads the fall of individual and elevated the fallen individual so that they can more easily rise, allowing them to gain independence.

METHOD OF COLLECTIVELY PREPARING CLOTHING HAVING MOISTURE PERMEABLE AND WATER PROOF PROPERTIES AND CLOTHING PREPARED USING THE METHOD
Provided are a method of collectively preparing moisture-permeable waterproof clothing and clothing prepared thereby. The method includes a step of cutting a fabric substrate and a film into a plurality of pieces, wherein the plurality of pieces includes at least a first and second group, wherein the first group includes a first substrate and film, and the second group includes a second substrate and film; a step of forming a first laminate by processing the first group; a step of forming a second laminate by processing the second group; a step of forming a seam by connecting the first and second substrate; a step of covering a seam area with the second film and then covering the second film with the first film; and a step of finally laminating the first and the second laminate along with the seam.
