A garment with safety features is described. The garment includes a covering configured to cover at least a portion of a wearer. The covering extends between a first location and a second location spaced apart from the first location. The garment includes a flexible panel with the covering overlaying the flexible panel. The flexible panel is attached to the covering at the first location and the second location. The covering comprises excess material between the first location and the second location, the excess material being configured to accommodate stretching of the flexible panel.

A wettable barrier fabric is provided that exhibits barrier function to dry particles and splashed liquids while also exhibiting wettability and wicking properties. A garment formed from a wettable barrier fabric that has good absorption properties and that retains good barrier properties is also provided.

A heated body suit assembly includes a shirt, a pair of pants, a pair of gloves and a pair of foot pads which each has a series of conduits integrated into the shirt, pants, gloves and foot pads. In this way air contained within the conduits is heated by the shirt when the shirt and pants are worn. The series of conduits in the pants is fluidly attached to the series of conduits in the shirt when each of the shirt and the pants are worn. The conduits in each of the gloves are fluidly coupled to the series of conduits in the shirt for warming the user's hands. The conduit in each of the foot pads are fluidly coupled to the conduits in the pants for warming the user's feet. A pair of blowers is positioned within the shirt to blow air throughout series of conduits in the shirt, the pants, the gloves and the foot pads.

A bib includes a pant portion, a torso portion, a bladder pocket and a liquid bladder. The pants portion includes a waist section and a pair of leg sections. The torso portion extends from the waist section. The torso portion includes a front and back panels disposed respectively adjacent the abdomen and lower back when the bib is worn by the user. The torso portion includes an outer surface facing away from the user torso and an inner surface facing towards the user torso. The bladder pocket is between the inner and outer surfaces extending from the front panel around the back panel and to the front panel. The liquid bladder is disposed within the bladder pocket and extends from the front panel around the back panel and to the front panel.

A personal protective device (PPE) including 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.

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.
