A cycling outer shell worn over a cycling jersey by a wearer may have at least a torso portion made of panels of at least one material, the torso portion having a back surface adapted to cover a back of the wearer when worn, and a front surface to cover a chest of the wearer when worn. A cutout is defined in a lower portion of the back surface of the torso portion and located in alignment with pockets of the cycling jersey, the cutout having a peripheral edge with opposite lateral edge portions, a bottom edge portion and a top edge portion, the bottom edge portion delimited by a strip extending between the opposite lateral edge portions, with a width dimension between the lateral edge portions of the cutout generally corresponding to a width of the pockets of the cycling jersey, and with a height dimension between the bottom edge portion and the top edge portion of the cutout generally corresponding to a height of the pockets of the cycling jersey. One or two lateral pockets are on a side or sides of the torso portion.

An attachment system includes a wearable carrier and an attachment slot. The wearable carrier is formed at least in part from a flexible material having an outer surface and an inner surface opposite the outer surface. The attachment slot is formed through the flexible material and configured to receive a strap of an attachment accessory. The attachment slot extends from a first end to a second end and includes a first segment, a second segment, and a third segment. The first segment extends from the first end to the second segment. The second segment extends from the first segment to the third segment. The third segment extends from the second segment to the second end. The first segment and the second segment define a first non-orthogonal angle therebetween. The third segment and the second segment define a second non-orthogonal angle therebetween.

Embodiments provide methods of disassembling an apparel product. The methods include exposing an adhesive of the apparel product to electromagnetic energy. The adhesive is disposed at least partially between a major component and a minor component of the apparel product. The adhesive includes a polymer having a cyclodextrin moiety bonded to an azobenzene moiety. The major component forms a base portion of the apparel product and is configured to be supported and worn at least partially over a portion of a wearer. The minor component forms a secondary portion configured to be coupled to the major component with the adhesive. The methods include separating the major component from the minor component adjoined by the adhesive.

The present invention is garments, articles of clothing, and body equipment systems having a bladder system for providing better fit of garments, articles of clothing, and body equipment systems to certain applicable body part(s) or area(s) of a user during use, and for providing greater support, comfort and/or stability to certain applicable body part(s) or area(s) of a user during use. As a non-limiting example, the present invention is compression garments having a clothing component and a bladder system, compression articles of clothing having a clothing component and a bladder system, and also to compression body equipment systems having a bladder system for providing better fit of compression garments, compression articles of clothing, and compression body equipment systems to certain applicable body part(s) or area(s) of a user during use, and for providing greater support, comfort and/or stability to certain applicable body part(s) or area(s) of a user during use.

The invention relates particularly to the addition of a mosquito mesh sewn as a lining inside the hooded section of clothing, which will provide an option to cover the face portion of the hoodie, jacket or hooded clothing. A fastener is attached to the free edge of the mesh to removably secure the free edge to a rear portion of the hood.

Embodiments provide apparel products. The apparel products each include a major component forming a base portion of the apparel product. The major component is configured to be supported and worn at least partially over a portion of a wearer. The apparel product includes a minor component forming a secondary portion configured to be coupled to the major component. An adhesive is disposed at least partially between a portion of the major component and a portion of the minor component. The adhesive includes a polymer having a cyclodextrin moiety bonded to an azobenzene moiety.
