A face mask includes a body portion having a weakening seam. The weakening seam bounds a punch out portion. The punch out portion has a diameter that is slightly smaller than a diameter of a predetermined straw. The weakening seam is configured to part from the body portion of the face mask so as to remove the punch out portion and leave an opening. Accordingly a straw may be inserted into the opening, as the outer diameter of the straw is in contact with an inner annular edge of the weakening seam so as maintain the filtering qualities of the face mask.

A sports wave bag consists of an open bag formed by the overlayment and stitching of two pieces of cloth around three edges thereof. The pieces of cloth are selectively of the team colors of a sports team. At one end of the bag is a pair of handles and at the other end is an opening through which a fan may pass his head. The sports fan may be seated with his hands received in the bag and gripping the handles at the far end thereof, exposing a first color of the sports team. In executing “the wave,” the fan stands to his feet and, while doing so, lifts his arms above his head to expose the other piece of cloth of the second team color. The effect is adding vibrancy of color and color change to the motion of “the wave” when performed at sporting events.

A sartorial and/or industrial design is provided that is suitable for defining an item of clothing made exclusively from natural-type fibres for a user and including at least one main portion including fabric arranged in straight grain with respect to the body of the user and a secondary portion including a fabric arranged bias-wise with respect to the body of the user that is arranged in an area of the body subject to higher traction than the rest of the body and essentially shaped like at least part of the area of the body.

The technology described herein generally relates to a garment that is insulating yet light weight, which may provide protection from the elements without weighing down the wearer. The garment in accordance with the technology described herein comprises a layer of thermally insulating sheet material having one or more voided portions in place of conventional down or other synthetic thermally insulating materials. The one or more voided portions allow the thermal insulation to be light weight and adequately protective in cooler/cold weather, without adding motion hindering bulk to the garment.

A wearable article is provided that includes embedded fidget elements that may be manipulated by the wearer. The fidget elements can be discreetly incorporated into various locations on the wearable article such as at hemlines, pockets, and other areas accessible to the wearer of the article of clothing. Incorporating fidget elements into a wearable article reduces distractions caused by using fidget elements while also maintaining benefits such as comfort, focus, concentration, reduced stress and entertainment that fidget elements provide to the user. The type and locations of the fidget elements on a wearable article may be customized to the needs and desires of the wearer of the clothing article, as are the properties of the fidget elements themselves.

The present invention discloses a three-dimensional mask with an expression window, and a manufacturing method and production equipment thereof; wherein a three-dimensional mask that splits open toward left and right as a bulge is provided for wearing. In a shielding region of mask body corresponding to a user's mouth, a refractive diaphragm is replaceably and tightly disposed and is expanded associatively following a preparation operation, so that a person with whom the user communicates can see through the expression of the user's mouth and the verbal the user manifests. Therefore, a three-dimensional mask for context communication and a coherent manufacturing method and production equipment thereof are provided, with some devices of the production equipment being able to be adapted in a same working region.

A face mask includes a piece of fabric including a main body portion, a first leg extending from first side of the main body portion, and a second leg extending from a second side of the main body portion. A first plurality of slots are arranged along a first side perimeter of the main body portion, and a second plurality of slots are arranged along a second side perimeter of the main body portion. At least one first fold in the piece of fabric extends between the first plurality of slots and at least one second fold extends between the second plurality of slots. The first plurality of slots are aligned and the first leg extends through the first plurality of slots. The second plurality of slots are also aligned and the second leg extends through the second plurality of slots.

A one-size-fits-all garment (10) is formed of multiple stretchable fabric portions (2) joined together by a PBT (polybutylene terephthalate) thread (38). The garment includes a waistband (6) that uses a paper fusing technique to fuse a fusing material from a paper backing sheet (18, 18A, 18B), onto the waistband which is also joined to the stretchable fabric portions using PBT thread. A method for forming the garment includes using a sheet of carrier paper with a fusing material such as a plurality of discrete dots of fusing material, to the waistband and sewing the multiple stretching stretchable fabric portions together and to the waistband using the PBT thread.

An adjustable hospital gown is designed to cover the bodies of users of varying shape and size. The gown has a torso-covering garment, a pair of backflaps, and an adjustable fastener. The torso-covering garment is used to cover the front side of the user's body. The pair of backflaps are connected along backflap seams that are positioned on opposite sides of the torso-covering garment. As a result, the pair of backflaps can be transitioned between an opened and a closed configuration. The adjustable fastener is connected in between one of the backflaps and the torso-covering garment such that the backflap can be repositioned to cinch the gown around the body of the user. By connecting the adjustable fastener to various anchor points, the size of the gown can be modified to accommodate user's of varying shape.

An integrated face, neck, and upper body covering. The covering is made from a vertical tube of fabric having a slit in the rear. The slit allows the lower portion of the tube to spread outward—thereby providing an effective covering for the chest in addition to the neck. Various embodiments are disclosed. Some of these embodiments provide covering for the shoulders and upper back as well.
