BRASSIERE ASSEMBLY
A bra includes first and second cups that are laterally spaced-apart. The first and second cups each have upper edges. First and second support straps are selectively coupled to the upper edges of the first and second cups. The first and second support straps each include a first end that has a first coupling feature and a body portion that has a second coupling feature. The second coupling feature is a reciprocal coupling feature to the first coupling feature. Each of the first and second support straps also includes a second end that has a retention feature, first and second fabrics, a pliable material, and a fastening material. The fastening material includes the first and second coupling features. The first fabric, the pliable material, the second fabric, and the fastening material are integrally formed to define a laminated support strap of each of the first and second support straps.
Harness For Coupling To An Upper Arm Prosthesis, And Systems And Methods Of Making And Using Same
A prosthesis system can comprise an upper arm prosthesis comprising a socket, the upper arm prosthesis being positioned on a first side of the prosthesis system proximate a residual limb of a user. A harness that can be coupled to the socket of the upper arm prosthesis. The harness can comprise a front portion that is configured to extend across the chest of the user and receive at least a portion of the breasts of the user therein and a back portion that is configured to extend across the back of the user and couple to opposed lateral sides of the front portion. A first end of a support strap can couple to the socket of the prosthesis at a first anchor point, and a second end can couple to the back portion of the harness on a second side of the prosthesis system opposite the first side.
Leotard including built-in supportive bra
A leotard having a built-in bra is disclosed. The leotard include a front panel and a back panel. A built-in bra is attached to the front panel of the leotard. A top back strap is attached to the bra at one end, the other end able to receive a fastener disposed on the bra. A bottom back strap is attached to the bra at one end, the other end able to receive a fastener disposed on the bra.
Support Garment
Aspects herein provide for a support garment having a vibration damping structure that is positioned between the breast contacting surfaces of the support garment. The vibration damping structure has a shape and/or material characteristics that enable it to substantially fill the space defined by a medial aspect of the wearer's breasts and the wearer's sternum. This positioning and placement facilitate the damping structure's ability to absorb and dissipate impact forces generated at least through the medial-to-lateral movement of the wearer's breasts during, for example, athletic activities.
COMPOSITE SOFT SUPPORT SIZELESS BRA
A composite soft support sizeless bra includes a front piece, a soft support rubber strip, a rear piece and a shoulder strap. The soft support strip is arranged on an inner side of the front piece and is connected is connected to a bottom part of the front piece by the shoulder strap to form a W shape, a U-shape, a straight shape, an arc shape or a curved shape. The rear piece and the front piece are integrally formed. The shoulder strap is used to connect the front piece and the rear piece. The inner side of the front piece and/or the rear piece is provided with dot-shaped glues.
Bra with stretch support
A brassiere includes a front portion configured to be positioned along a front of a torso, a back portion coupled to the front portion, and a shoulder strap extending from the front portion to the back portion. The front portion includes a cup for supporting a wearer's breast. The cup comprises a fabric layer and a printed layer. The fabric layer includes a first, user-facing side and a second side opposite the first side. The printed layer is deposited on the fabric layer and forms a discontinuous layer defining covered fabric areas and noncovered fabric areas exposing the fabric layer. An elastic modulus of the covered fabric areas is different than an elastic modulus of the noncovered fabric areas. The printed layer is deposited on the fabric layer in a pattern configured to provide the cup with an elastic modulus gradient.
Value transfer between disparate systems
Various embodiments herein each include at least one of systems, methods, and software for value transfer between disparate systems. One such embodiment includes receiving a transfer request to transfer a value from a first account provider to an account maintained with a second account provider and including data identifying an individual or entity that initiated the transfer request. This method also includes identifying the second account provider based on data included in the transfer request and generating a request to transfer the value of the transfer request to the account in a format compatible with the second account provider. The method may then transmit the generated request to the second account provider.
Bra adapted for athletic use
The disclosure concerns a bra adapted for athletic use, of the type comprising a first cup and a second cup, each of them bounded laterally by an outer edge and by an inner edge, and outfitted with a support structure and a base structure. Each cup is outfitted with a support structure connected to a base structure, the support structure comprising at least a first support strap of overall cradle shape which is elastically deformable and which extends at least from the outer edge to the inner edge of the respective cup to support the breasts of the wearer.
ADJUSTABLE MULTI-LAYER BRA
An adjustable multi-layer bra includes an inner bra layer and an outer bra layer. The bra includes a pulley system provided on the front of the bra for lifting the inner bra layer relative to the outer bra layer.
Support garment
Aspects herein provide for a support garment having a vibration damping structure that is positioned between the breast contacting surfaces of the support garment. The vibration damping structure has a shape and/or material characteristics that enable it to substantially fill the space defined by a medial aspect of the wearer's breasts and the wearer's sternum. This positioning and placement facilitate the damping structure's ability to absorb and dissipate impact forces generated at least through the medial-to-lateral movement of the wearer's breasts during, for example, athletic activities.
