Aspects directed towards mask-wearing are disclosed. In one example, a garment apparatus includes a shirt and a shirt extension having a first and second end. The first end is affixed to an inside portion of the shirt, and the second end includes a mask attachment mechanism that facilitates attaching and detaching a mask. In another example, a mask apparatus includes ear lobes, a shell coupled to the ear lobes, and a fragrance region positioned on an inner portion of the shell in which the material of the fragrance region is different than the material of the shell. In yet another example, a fragrance apparatus includes a fragrance region in which fluid is absorbed by a moisture-absorbent material, and an attachment mechanism couples the fragrance apparatus to an inner portion of a mask. A seal is affixed to the fragrance region and prevents an evaporation of the fluid.

A protective hood for a garment is provided. The hood can have a multi-layered sidewall that has an inner fabric layer and an outer fabric layer that cooperate to define a first pocket. A padding layer is positioned within the pocket.

Systems and methods for scenting masks for providing a scent to a user include a mask system having a mask with an interior surface, an exterior surface, a right ear loop, and a left ear loop. Mask systems can also include a scenting assembly having a scented portion and an adhesive portion, where the scented portion includes an absorbent patch impregnated with a scented substance. The adhesive portion of the scenting system can be attached with the interior surface of the mask, such that when the mask system is worn by the user, aromatic molecules of the scented substance exit the absorbent patch and flow into the user's nose without the scented substance touching the user's skin.

A jacket has a torso portion, a pair of underarm portions adjacent the torso portion, and a pair of arms, one of each of the arms being adjacent one of each of the underarm portions, the cloth defining a first area and a second area. The article further includes a first assembly including one or more scent control materials provided within the first area defined by a cloth and a second assembly including one or more scent control materials provided within the second area defined by the cloth, the second assembly having a different composition than the first assembly. The first assembly and the second assembly together include activated carbon and at least one of carbon treated to adsorb hydrogen sulfide, zeolite, ammonia stone, and carbon treated to adsorb mercaptan.

Embodiments described herein relate generally to athletic or leisure apparel, such as running shorts or pants. In some embodiments, a garment includes an outer shell coupled to a band and an inner shell disposed within the outer shell and coupled to the band. The outer shell includes a first material having a first surface area, and the inner shell includes a second material having a second surface area that is less than the first surface area. A pocket is coupled to, and extends from, an inner surface of the outer shell. A coupling mechanism secures the pocket to the inner shell. In some embodiments, the coupling mechanism is a second pocket comprising the second material and coupled to the inner shell. In some embodiments, the coupling mechanism includes a stitch or a tether.

A face mask comprised of a collar, a shaft, and a base that is used to store and diffuse aromatherapy components. The collar may include a fitting feature used to secure a portion of the face mask above the user's mouth or nose. The shaft may further include one or more insertion pockets and one or more storage pockets, each configured to secure or contain an aromatherapy pod, which are designed to diffuse the aromatherapy components, e.g., an essential oil. The base may also contain a storage pocket configured to secure or contain an aromatherapy pod.

An air inhalation and exhalation filtering mask has a mask body, an inhalation device, an exhalation device, and first and second filtering structures, wherein, on the middle portion of the mask body, first and second openings are respectively configured at an upper and a lower position. The inhalation device is configured on the mask body and covers the first opening. Air flows from the front side of the mask body, passing through the inhalation device, and flows to the rear side. The exhalation device is configured on the mask body and covers the second opening. Air flows from the rear side of the mask body, passing through exhalation device and flows to the front side. The first filtering structure filters air flowing to the rear side of the mask body, while the second filtering structure filters air flowing to the front side of the mask body.

Protective garments are disclosed having an inner lining with high lubricity and high strength characteristics. The inner lining, in one embodiment, contains spun yarns combined with para-aramid multifilament yarns. The spun yarns may also contain flame resistant fibers, such as meta-aramid fibers, FR cellulose fibers, or mixtures thereof. The para-aramid filament yarns provide excellent strength characteristics to the fabric. In addition, in some embodiments, the multifilament yarns may enhance the fire resistant properties of the fabric. In one embodiment, the para-aramid filament yarns may have less than five twists per inch, such as from about 1 twist per inch to about four twists per inch.

A mask includes a main body portion, a pair of ear strings, and an upper locking portion. The main body portion covers the mouth and has an upper end fixing point that is a part where the upper end part of ear string is fixed, and a lower end fixing point that is where the lower end part of each ear string is fixed. The pair of ear strings are on the right and left sides of the main body portion, and are put on the ears. The upper locking portion attaches to the main body portion. An intermediate part of each ear string is locked detachably to the upper locking portion. The upper locking portion is nearer the upper end fixing point than the lower end fixing point, and is inside the upper end fixing point with respect to the right/left direction of the main body portion.

A method of delivering liquid or solid extracts to a person is described. The method includes providing the extract to an inner surface of a face covering, such as a face mask, gator, or bandana. In certain embodiments, a reservoir or pad is provided to the inner surface to retain the extract. Once the person placed the face covering on their face, the extract vaporizes, providing a continuous flow of the extract to the person. The extract can be an extract of cannabis or an extract of hemp which contains THC or CBD, an extract of tobacco, an aromatherapy oil, or a pharmaceutical.
