Provided is a weighted shirt comprising a shirt bottom disposed beneath a shirt body, the shirt bottom comprising an outer bottom and an inner bottom, a bottom stitch configured to join the inner bottom to the outer bottom, and a hem cavity bound by at least the outer bottom, the inner bottom, the inflection point, and the bottom stitch. The weighted shirt may comprise a weight disposed within the hem cavity, where the hem cavity is sized to accept the weight. The weight may be an annular member, where the weight comprises an outer face, an inner face, an upper part, and a lower part.

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.

The present invention relates to a novel male designed upper body garment in the form of an improved shirt for male users. The upper body garment appears and functions as conventional shirt and has a modified bottom hemline. More specifically, a front portion of the bottom hemline has a rounded cut-out opening for easily accessing the male organ through the opening for urination while the shirt is tucked inside the pants. The simple design is male oriented and allows the shirt to remain comfortably tucked inside the pants without bunching up or requiring the shirt to be re-tucked. The cut-out opening is formed by removing an area from about 8 square inches to about 30 square inches.

A garment that includes one or more grip elements is disclosed. The grip elements, as disposed on a garment, may enable enhanced frictional forces between the garment and an object, such as exercise equipment, with which the garment may make contact. The grip elements may be composite structures disposed on one or more surfaces of the garment and may include an elastomeric and/or rubbery material with grit materials, such as sand, alumina, silicon carbide, or the like, embedded therein. The grit material may be at least partially exposed at the surface of the grip elements and may enhance gripping forces when the grip elements are wet, such as with sweat, compared to grip elements formed by only elastomeric materials. Grip elements may be formed on various portions of a garment separately and then those portions may be attached to each other to form the garment with grip elements.

The present invention relates to the stabilization of a shirt or blouse placket and/or shirt collar when the shirt is worn without a tie, without upper fastening means near the wearer's neck or collar region, or and with the upper fastening means near the wearer's neck or collar region, such as one or more buttons, unfastened.

One or more aspects of the present disclosure provide articles of manufacture and components of articles that incorporate an optical element that imparts a structural color to the component or the article. The component comprises a thermoplastic polymeric material, and can include or be made to have a textured surface.

A garment has a yoke attached to the garment body, wherein the yoke is formed from a material having stretch and recovery in at least two directions thereof. The material may be formed from a fusible substrate combined with a particular fabric having stretch properties. The yoke may have an inner piece and an outer piece having substantially the same shape and size as the inner piece, and wherein at least one of the inner piece and the outer piece is formed from a material formed from a fusible substrate combined with a particular fabric having stretch properties. The garment body includes a back and a front, and the yoke includes at least one back portion configured with the back of the garment body, and at least one front portion configured with the front of the garment body. The first material has stretch and recovery properties at offset angles with respect to the at least one direction.
