The invention described herein is the micro-seam hidden zipper. There are two contemplated versions of the Micro-Seam Hidden Zipper: 1) side to side zipper orientation and 2) front to back zipper orientation. The invention in both iterations contains a Zipper Fabric Flap. Although zippers, buttons and spandex have helped to revolutionize the way we wear one-pieces today, their current location on the one-piece does not lend itself as a solution to the disrobing debacle when faced with having to use the bathroom. The wearer is still faced with the dilemma of having to fully disrobe when needing to use the bathroom. Therefore, the present invention enables and creates a solution to this ongoing challenge

An article of outerwear which resists ignition and insulates against heat, the article of outerwear has a plurality of sections made from a fabric, such as woven fabric, knit fabric or a combination thereof. The plurality of sections allow the article of outerwear to stretch enhancing the comfort of the wearer of the article of outerwear. The outerwear may include a protective shroud/hood which has fans to circulate air inside the protective shroud/hood, the fans having air intake openings and vent openings, the air intake openings opening in planes which are perpendicular to planes in which the vent openings open.

The invention concerns a disposable individual overall (1) for protection against radioactive particles, comprising a zip closure (FG1) from top to bottom and on the front in the trunk portion (3). The invention is characterized in that at least one other closure (FG2) extends from top to bottom in at least one of the legs (31, 32) of the trouser part (3) and comprises two strips (BA31, BA32) capable of being connected along another prescribed meshing line (LE3), at least one junction point (S) connecting two of the strips (BA31, BA32) beyond the other line (LE3) being present between the closure (FG1) and the other closure (FG3) in the closed state, a breaking member (CU) being provided on at least one of the closures (FG1, FG3) in order to allow breaking of the junction point (S) by pulling on the breaking member (CU).

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 care-giver. Users can fasten the coveralls using velcros, 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 light-weight and air impermeable material, the inflatable coveralls pads the fall of individuals, and elevated the fallen individual so that they can more easily rise, allowing them to gain independence.

One-piece personal wear and a method for fabricating the same are provided. The one-piece personal wear includes a first fabric layer with a first contour and a second fabric layer with a second contour. One or more joint areas are arranged at the predetermined edges of the first contour and the second contour. An intermediate fabric layer is locally provided to intertwine with portions of the first fabric layer and the second fabric layer within the joint area range to form a three-layer fabric structure. The three-layer fabric structure is formed before the first fabric and second layers are tailored out along the first contour and the second contour.

A personal protective device (PPE) comprising a face cover assembly and a bodysuit configured to be worn by a human user. The device protects users against airborne aerosol particles containing viruses or other infectious agents while enabling improved flexibility relative to prior art designs. The device includes a helmet-like” rotating face cover assembly that fits over the user's head and attaches to a collar on the biohazard bodysuit. This rotating face cover assembly has a plurality of different mask sides, each with differing geometries or other properties. The device enables a user to rotate (either manually or by electric motor) the masks and select a given mask side that best meets that user's needs. The different mask sides can accommodate different facial geometries, eyewear types, and use cases, such as operation in more hostile environments. Features to improve user comfort, including alternate bodysuit designs, moisture reduction, and cooling are disclosed.
