An electroadhesive clutch can be coupled to a textile. The clutch can include a first electrode assembly comprising a first conductive member, and a second electrode assembly comprising a second conductive member overlaying in part the first conductive member. In an example, the clutch includes or uses an elastic encasing within which the first and second electrode assemblies are positioned. The elastic encasing can form a first bond with the first conductive member at a first location of the elastic encasing and a second bond with the second conductive member proximate a second location of the elastic encasing different than the first location.

A trousers has a left pocket bag and a right pocket bag, each formed from a first material and a second material, the first material having stretch and recovery properties in at least one direction thereof, and the second material having stretch properties in at least one direction thereof. The first material comprises a first composite material including a fusible or interlining fused to a cotton or cotton blend base fabric. The left pocket bag comprises a left inner piece comprising the first material, and the right pocket bag comprises a right inner piece comprising the first material.

A clothing alteration device may include an elongated body having a first side and an opposing second side. One or more adhesive surfaces may be disposed on the first side that may be formed by an adhesive material. The device may also include one or more non-adhesive surfaces which may comprise portions of the first side to which adhesive material has not been applied. Preferably, the device may comprise two or more adhesive surfaces that may be separated from each other by a non-adhesive surface. The body may comprise a resilient material which is able to regain its shape after deformation so that the adhesive surface(s) and non-adhesive surface(s) may likewise regain their shape after deformation. The body may be stretched and adhered to portions of a garment, and once adhered, the body may be released thereby gathering the portions of the garment that the device is adhered to.

A compression leotard is provided to aid the performance of athletes where compression panels are incorporated to mimic and support specific muscle groups, while aiding muscle metabolism and protecting joints. Panels are sized and positioned to apply a targeted pressure over a known area, such as hips, shoulders and spine, to reduce inflammation and stress on joints in the body core.

A binder for compressing the breasts of a wearer binder providing for a front panel formed by a single ply of a first woven textile and a rear panel connectively engaged to the front panel to form a garment. The rear panel is formed from a single ply of a second woven textile. The garment encircles the torso and overwraps the breasts of the wearer allowing the front panel to comfortably compress the breasts of the wearer.

A pair of tights specially designed for the wearer to self-adjust the waist for fit, adjust compression, adjust for waist training, adjust lower abdominal support, and adjust lower lumbar back support. The localized compression effect is configured and adjusted by a textile piece attached at the left side area of the back waistband that can cross the front of the abdomen to the left and a textile piece attached at the right-side area of the back waistband that can cross the front of the abdomen to the right. The two textile pieces that cross the body are anchored from the opposite side areas of the waistband creating a compression and opposite horizontal pull across the back and can be adjusted to attach across the front of the body. The configuration of the waistband and adjustable textile pieces allows a wearer to self-adjust the fit.

In one embodiment, a garment includes a garment substrate and a pattern formed on the substrate that emulates the contours of an ideally proportioned body so as to give observers the impression of the ideal proportions.

At least one of the body and pelvic portions includes an elastic material to impart compression on a wearer. The garment also comprises a decorative outer layer, with the inner layer attached to the outer layer only at or adjacent to the neck opening. The outer layer is made from a different material to that of the inner layer and does not impart compression on the wearer.

Described herein, is the manufacture, matter of compositions, function, methods and uses of a compression legging system that combines a swelling monitor, a patient activity monitor, medical compression legging material, and a mobile application to help PTS patients detect recurrent DVT and seek medical attention quickly before the development of PE, while reducing swelling and preventing DVT via compression therapy.
