The pressure-relieving finger-manipulated strip is a mechanical structure. The pressure-relieving finger-manipulated strip is configured for use with a patient. The pressure-relieving finger-manipulated strip is a relaxation inducing device. The pressure-relieving finger-manipulated strip is rubbed by the patient to induce relaxation. The pressure-relieving finger-manipulated strip comprises a sheeting structure and a grommet. The grommet mounts on the sheeting structure. The pressure-relieving finger-manipulated strip forms the structure that generates that induced the relaxation response for the patient. The grommet forms an anchor point that allows the pressure-relieving finger-manipulated strip to clip to an externally provided structure.

A versatile tuckless shirt having a flexible body with a hem at its bottom terminal edge. A length of an elastic band shorter than the circumferential length of the hem is fixed within the hem whereby a user may fold the bottom of the shirt upward and into the interior of the shirt body to provide the look of a tucked shirt.

Provided is a garment comprising fabric and at least one seam, said garment comprising at least one vibrotactile actuator configured for producing a vibrational pattern based on audio and/or messaging information provided by an information signal from an external device. The vibrotactile actuator is contained within the seam. Also provided is a system, circuit and method for transmitting audio and/or messaging information to a user. The system comprises the garment, the external device, and a conversion unit comprising a microcontroller that converts the audio and/or messaging information into a driving signal to be provided to the vibrotactile actuator. The circuit comprises the microcontroller and the vibrotactile actuators coupled to one another by a ribbon of a flexible material. The method evaluates the delay between the vibrational pattern produced by the vibrotactile actuator and acoustic and/or visual signals produced by the external device based on the audio and/or messaging information.

A lower torso garment includes a body portion, a front pouch disposed about a front region of the body portion, and a support sling connected to the front pouch and configured to support the front pouch. The support sling includes a left fabric panel extending along a left side periphery of the front pouch and a right fabric panel extending along a right side periphery of the front pouch. A portion of the left fabric panel overlaps a portion of the right fabric panel at an overlap area, and the overlap area is positioned adjacent to a bottom of the front pouch.

Embodiments of the present invention relate to the arts garment, and, in particular, ballet tights for adults and adolescents for use during classes, rehearsals, and performances. The subject tights offer a redesign of the existing waistband by one or more of, and preferably all of, the following: removing the elastic component of the traditional waistband, and Nylon the use of flat and thinner seams, extra soft yarn with a tight knit weave, a V-shape seam to follow the natural female pelvic structure, a crotch size to fit most, if not all, vagina shapes and sizes, a double layer moisture wicking built-in underwear with G-string and a full back in the rear, and appropriate cut outs on the bottom of foot.

A weighted sock has a weight assembly at a portion of the sock. The weight assembly has a weight carrier. The weight carrier has a carrier space with a weight therein. The weight is configurable to take on a first shape by a force which also changes the shape or dimension of the weight carrier. The weight carrier, when having the changed shape or dimension, has a force of sufficient magnitude to reconfigure the weight into a second shape different from the first shape when the force which also changes the shape or dimension of the carrier is removed.

A noncompressive undergarment is configured to be donned by a wearer and worn underneath a garment to restrict direct contact between the wearer and the garment. The undergarment includes front and back undergarment panels each presenting a top margin extending along a neck opening of the undergarment. The undergarment includes opposite undergarment sleeves that are each connected to the undergarment panels and at least partly form respective shoulders of the undergarment.

A lower torso garment (220) includes a body portion (104), a front pouch (106) disposed about a front region of the body portion, and a support sling connected to the front pouch and configured to support the front pouch. The support sling includes a left fabric panel (224) extending along a left side periphery (112a) of the front pouch and a right fabric panel (226) extending along a right side periphery (112b) of the front pouch. A portion of the left fabric panel overlaps a portion of the right fabric panel at an overlap area (228), and the overlap area is positioned adjacent to a bottom of the front pouch.

A female undergarment including a first fabric layer having an abdominal region and a crotch region and a second fabric layer secured to the first fabric layer at the crotch region and at the abdominal region. The crotch region is defined by first and second leg openings. The second fabric layer, secured to the first fabric layer at the crotch region and at the abdominal region, defines a first opening between the first fabric layer and the second fabric layer proximate the first leg opening and a second opening between the first fabric layer and the second fabric layer proximate the second leg opening. Manufacturing the undergarment includes forming a first fabric layer having an abdominal region and a crotch region, and securing a second fabric layer to the first fabric layer at the crotch region and at the abdominal region, thereby defining the first opening and the second opening.

The undergarment with an integral sanitary liner is an article of loin wear. A patient wears the undergarment with an integral sanitary liner when the patient anticipates liquid discharge in the loin region. The undergarment with an integral sanitary liner is an absorbent structure that absorbs liquid discharges in the loin region. The undergarment with an integral sanitary liner comprises an anterior panel, a posterior panel, an inferior panel, an elastic webbing, a liner, and a plurality of seams. The plurality of seams interconnect the anterior panel, the posterior panel, the inferior panel, and the elastic webbing to form the article of loin wear. The inferior panel forms the absorbent structure of the undergarment with an integral sanitary liner of the article of loin wear. The liner is a sheeting that protects the patient from the liquids in the inferior panel.
