A running shirt with a bib pocket and additional pockets constructed on the front of the shirt for use in distance races. The bib pocket has a sheer material front so the identifying number printed on the race bib can easily be seen. The runner simply slides the bib into the pocket and closes the pocket with a zipper in order to hold the bib in place during a race.

A method of manufacturing a one-piece textile by a jacquard machine includes a preparation step, a jacquard weaving step, a textile separation step, and a textile ironing step. A woven cloth is made of the method and includes a base fabric and multiple textiles connected with the base fabric by at least one sewing area. The woven cloth is a one-piece structure made by a jacquard machine. The textiles are separated by trimming the at least one sewing area from the woven cloth. Each textile is a complete product with a one-piece structure without sewing. The manufacturing method can improve the efficiency of textile production.

Shaping garments including one or more slimming elastic bands are disclosed. In some embodiments, shaping garments include a first horizontal elastic band and a second diagonal elastic band positioned to reshape the inner and outer upper legs creating a slimmer appearance, while also lifting the buttocks.

A swaddling device is described. The swaddling device is Y-shaped pod shaped and configured to substantially enclose a baby. The device includes sleeves having at their ends foldover mitten cuffs or similar selectively openable fasteners. The cuffs allow a caregiver to expose the hand or hands of the baby so as to provide skin-to-skin contact. Alternatively, the caregiver can close the cuffs if scratching is a concern. The device is shaped to provide support and snugness for the baby in its mid-section, while also providing sufficient space for hips and knees to flex. The design of the Swaddle Sack with swaddle snugness provides support and partial suppression of the Moro Reflex without arm restraints and allowing sufficient range of motion for baby's upper section which will reduce risk of suffocation for baby in the event that baby rolls over to prone position, because baby will be able to use his or her arms to reposition his or her head to get access to air.

Embodiments of the invention disclosed herein are directed to articles of clothing that allow for monitoring of different analytes (e.g., electrolytes and molecules) in human sweat during fitness activity, while training, or simply in everyday life. The clothing includes a sensor system completely integrated in textile such that every sensing part is made of textile fibers. The clothing is able to control, collect, analyze, and expel the sweat over time. The textile sensor allows a spontaneous absorption of body sweat directly from the skin, while it is produced, using the hydrophilic natural properties of the textile. Then, once adsorbed, the flux of sweat is controlled and guided through the textile using a gradient of the textile's hydrophilic properties. The sweat guided through the textile is analyzed through an electrochemical sensor woven into the textile. Finally, the sweat is collected in a reservoir and expelled for evaporation.

Embodiments generally relate to a baby sleeping garment. The baby sleeping garment comprises a wrap portion configured to receive the body of the baby or infant and at least partially wrap around the body of the baby or infant; and at least one arm portion attached to the wrap portion around at least part of the arm pocket's perimeter to define at least one arm pocket sized to receive at least one arm of the baby or infant. The arm pocket has an opening configured to allow the at least one arm of the baby or infant to be inserted into the arm pocket.

The field of the DISCLOSURE lies in adaptive materials for implementation in textiles, wearables and smart clothing. The present disclosure relates to functional fabrics or devices, comprising flexible fabrics or fiber-based materials which reversibly change shape upon stimulation with temperature and/or electrical (electrical field and/or charge) and/or upon applying tension. The present disclosure also relates to the use of said functional fabrics or devices, in particular for changing the hardness-softness in wearables or in parts of objects, or as variable friction layer in robotic grippers. The present disclosure also relates to wearable electronics, smart clothing, sport bandages and compression stockings, flexible sheet heaters. The present disclosure also relates to functional fabrics or devices and theirs uses in shape morphing fabrics, as soft/hard powered exoskeletons for posture corrective/supportive wearables or robotic artificial muscles.

Articles of apparel and methods of making articles of apparel that include one or more thread layers made by winding a continuous thread around anchor points. In some embodiments, the articles of apparel can include multiple pieces of material, with each piece including a thread layer. In some embodiments, the article of apparel can be steamed to shape the one or more thread layers.

A foot cover including a stretchable lattice configured to be worn over a foot of a user. The stretchable lattice being fitted to a shape of a human foot. The stretchable lattice is an elastomer. The stretchable lattice defines a first plurality of openings and a second plurality of openings. The foot cover includes a first end of the stretchable lattice enclosing toes of the foot of the user. The foot cover includes a second end of the stretchable lattice defining an opening for receiving the foot of the user, wherein first end includes the first plurality of openings that are smaller than the second plurality of openings associated with a body of the stretchable lattice.
