A pad for use in clothing garments bonds to a garment seam to provide protection from chafing or irritation caused by the seam and provide support and strength to the seam. The seam may be embedded within the pad to integrate the seam into the padding to eliminate contact between the wearer's body and the seam stitching. The seam may be bonded to or embedded within the pad during manufacture of the pad or in a separate step using preformed pads and seams.

A body of one or more rubber bands or the like, which can be implemented in multiple ways on the exterior of protective clothing, such as overalls, jackets, trousers, gloves, boots and helmets. The bands or bodies are made from abrasion resistant, slide resistant fabric. The bands are sliding resistant. Each band is arranged over a cushioned or rigid base on the outside of the clothing in order to securely integrate the bands or bodies into the clothing. The elastic and slide resisting nature of the rubber bodies or bands produce an opposing force against the sliding force experienced by the wearer, such as a motorcyclist, which significantly reduces the speed of the sliding movement until the wearer stops.

A protective garment system including a bib configured to fit around at least part of an upper portion of a torso of a wearer. The bib includes an outer material and a particulate-blocking material which is configured to be positioned between the outer material and a wearer when the bib is worn. The bib has a perimeter and is configured to be releasably attached to a pair of trousers about the perimeter.

A method and system for creating a clothing enhanced to more readily retain a particular shape, for example in order to create a more flattering look for the wearer. In an exemplary embodiment, an article of clothing may be treated with heat applied transfers which may stiffen the clothing in particular areas in order to provide support, contouring, and lift; eligible clothing may include, for example, jeans, which may be enhanced in order to provide a more pronounced and flattering rear portion for the user. Such a method and system may be combined with other methods and systems, for example a method and system for creating a clothing with enhanced durability using a heat transfer, in order to achieve a resulting article that may have desirable properties, such as breathability, flexibility, stiffness, or durability, in addition to its ability to retain a particular shape more readily.
