A trench coat has a coat body and a cover. The coat body has a collar, at least two left fixing units, and at least two right fixing units. The left fixing units are located on the left of the collar, and the right fixing units are located on the right of the collar. The cover has a left neck covering piece, at least one left outer fixing unit, a right neck covering piece, and at least one right outer fixing unit. The left neck covering piece and the right neck covering piece are located in an inner side of the collar, and are capable of buckling each other. The left outer fixing unit is mounted on the left neck covering piece and is adapted to buckle or detach from the left fixing units. The right outer fixing unit is mounted on the right neck covering piece and is adapted to buckle or detach from the right fixing units.

An improved system and method for keeping articles of clothing properly fixed in place. Embodiments include a first article of clothing and a second article of clothing. Embodiments further include having one or more climbing skin fabrics having a plurality of fibers affixed to a first article of clothing. The one or more climbing skin fabrics having the plurality of fibers allow movement of the second article of clothing in one direction with respect to the first article of clothing while impeding movement of the second article of clothing in the other unwanted direction.

A composite article is provided for use as a heat spreader, a cooling element or as part of the heating system for a wide variety of items. The composite article can include at least one sheet of compressed particles of exfoliated graphite or graphiiized polymer. A protective coating may be aligned or adhered with a surface of the sheet. The article may also include at least one of a fiber reinforced polymer, a fiber weave or fiber mat or combinations thereof, aligned with at least one of the first surface of the sheet or a second surface of the sheet. The composite article can include a plurality of strips of compressed particles of exfoliated graphite, of graphiiized polymer or combinations thereof, which are woven together and or it can include cut outs, slits or other perforations to provide flexibility, stretchabi Kiv and breathability

Aspects herein relate to a garment or article system having an internal layer and an external layer, the external layer has an inner surface facing the internal layer and an outer surface facing an external environment. Specifically, the garment or article system comprises a first slider mechanism affixed to the internal layer and a second slider mechanism affixed to the external layer. The first slider mechanism affixed to the internal layer is coupled to the second slider mechanism affixed to the external layer so that a pull or a directional force applied to the second slider mechanism is transferred to the first slider mechanism to reversibly transition the first slider mechanism from an open state in a first direction to a closed state in a second direction, and while maintaining the second slider mechanism in a closed state regardless of the direction of the directional force applied.

A thermally fixable textile fabric, particularly useful as a fixable interlining, lining, and/or outer fabric in a textile industry, includes: a carrier material comprising a melt-blown non-woven fabric. The carrier material has flock fibers on one side and a hot-melt adhesive on a side facing away from the flock fibers.

Embodiments of a ballistic vest system having a ballistic vest plate carrier with a ballistic plate engaged to a ballistic ridge component disposed therein that provides protection against side spall and back face deformation caused by the impact of ballistic projectiles and shrapnel along the peripheral area of the ballistic plate and methods to manufacture such a ballistic vest systems are generally described herein. Other embodiments of a ballistic vest system may be described and claimed.
