A hooded sun shield includes a head piece including an opening, side vents and a plurality of fasteners, and a mask piece attachably coupled to the head piece via the plurality of fasteners over the opening, including a first layer and a second layer formed over the first layer, first layer and second layer form a horizontal vent in the mask piece.

A lower body garment, such as athletic shorts or sweat pants for use during physical activity, comprises an outer layer and an inner layer. The outer layer has a waist opening and two leg openings and is made of a first material. The inner layer has a waist opening and two leg openings and is made of a second material, such as a material that is more elastic than the first material. A pocket extends from an opening in the outer layer through the inner layer to a cavity underneath the inner layer. The pocket comprises one or more panels that are attached to the inner layer in a manner so that contents in the cavity of the pocket may be compressed against the leg of a wearer by the inner layer.

The apparel is constructed from various combinations of layers of materials with moisture transfer properties. A first liner of moisture transfer fabrics abuts a second layer of structural material such as open-cell foam. The second layer can abut a breathable membrane and/or an insulating material. Finally, carefully selected outer fabric completes the combination to provide apparel with improved performance characteristics. The outer fabrics are treated in various ways to enhance performance.

Materials for personal protective equipment (PPE) that is water resistant, blood resistant, and virus resistant are disclosed. The materials described herein are also highly breathable adding to the comfort of PPE made from these materials. The materials for PPE described herein contain one or more uniaxially or biaxially stretched microporous films.

Aspects herein relate to a garment having zoned insulation features. The zoned insulation features comprise projections that extend in the z-direction with respect to the surface of a base material forming the garment such that the projections face toward a body surface of a wearer when the garment is worn. The number and/or size of the projections may vary over the garment depending on the amount of insulation needed in different areas of the garment.

One embodiment provides an apparatus. The apparatus includes a source conductive path to couple to a load conductive path and to a power source. The source conductive path is included in a garment and the load conductive path is related to a head mounted wearable device (HMWD).
