A garment with selective compression may include multiple regions associated with different parts of a user's body, such as the arms, chest, midsection, buttocks, and legs. Each region of the garment may have a different level of compression. Higher levels of compression may provide support and alter the shape of the associated body part, while lower levels of compression may provide a smooth appearance without altering shape. By having selective compression levels for each region, the garment can smooth or shape different parts of the user's body in order to achieve a user's desired appearance, in addition to selectively providing different levels of support and increasing overall comfort and functionality.

A sports garment includes a textile forming two or more compression zones. The compression zones include a motion-supporting compression zone configured to apply a first compressive force to a first area of a body and a body-shaping compression zone configured to apply a second compressive force to a second area of the body. The first compressive force supports a motion of the first area of the body. The second compressive force shapes the second area of the body.

The undergarment may include a multi-panel front construction in order to minimize the prominence of breast buds, nipples, and even mature breast tissue without sports bra-like compression. The garments are uniquely designed to maximize comfort with their super-soft external material and to maximize self-esteem with their unique inner front panel. The interior front panel is constructed from a different material than the external layers.

Upper-body garment assemblies with integrated waistband positioning systems. In some examples, the waistband positioning system is configured to maintain pants, skirts, leggings, tights, stockings, etc. in proper position against the forces of gravity. In some examples, the waistband positioning system is configured to support another article of clothing and at least partially absorb and/or distribute the forces associated with supporting the other. The garment assembly may be any suitable type of top, shirt, brassiere, camisole, tank top, athletic top, or any other desired article of clothing having a panel with integrated waistband positioning system. In some examples, the waistband positioning system has one or more inner panels or areas configured to move independently from the outer layer of the garment assembly to support the weight of another article of clothing.

An absorbent performance garment is disclosed comprising a pant and a gusset at least partially sewn to an interior surface of the pant. The gusset is comprised of a first layer, an absorbent second layer, and a waterproof third layer. The second layer is positioned between the first layer and the waterproof third layer. The gusset is affixed to the pant such that the gusset can absorb fluids without weighing down the crotch region of the pant.

A revolutionary garment is disclosed that fits precisely to a pregnant woman's evolving body shape. Using a bonded film band instead of traditional seamless shapewear provides superior support, strength and comfort. By adding a bonded front band, the legging has the support of a medical maternity belt with the clean sleek look of a performance legging.

A fat-burning high-waist undergarment is provided. The fat-burning high-waist undergarment may be made of thermal conducive, elastic material so as to burn fat along the portions of the wearer's body it stretches to cover. The fat-burning high-waist undergarment may have high-cut leg openings and a detachable fastener to facilitate wear by a user with bigger legs. The fat-burning high-waist undergarment may also provide one or more adhesive strip just inward of an upper torso opening and the high-cut leg openings to prevent the material from rolling during use during exercise routines.

Examples of a breast support garment are disclosed. The breast support garment comprises a front panel with a chest area configured to support a wearer's breasts and dampen an accelerating movement of the breast tissue, and a hydration system that comprises a hydration reservoir and a dispensing tube connected to the reservoir.

In one embodiment, a garment having a cup portion with two cups, a body portion integrated with the cup portion, and a band are disposed on the garment such that is extends beneath the cup portions. The band is either on the body portion or adjacent the body portion. The garment also has support structures with a configuration, each following proximately a contour of the lower part of its respective cup, wherein a portion of the support structure is formed on and fixed to the band and a portion of the support structure extends on the body of the garment and is attached thereto. As such the support structure configuration is approximately arcuate. The garment also has additional control regions. The control is provided by fabric or materials that have less stretch than the body fabric from which the body of the garment is made.
