The zoned insulation features comprise projections that extend in the z-direction with respect to the surface of a base material forming the garment such that the projections face toward a body surface of a wearer when the garment is worn. The number and/or size of the projections may vary over the garment depending on the amount of insulation needed in different areas of the garment.

A life jacket vest including a life jacket member having a pair of arm openings and a lining having a pair of sleeve members and a perimeter. The lining is positioned in mating relationship with at least a portion of the life jacket member and is attached along at least a portion of the perimeter of the life jacket member. The sleeve members are received and extend through the openings of the life jacket member and are not attached to the life jacket member. The life jacket member may include a fastener member and a size adjustment member. The lining may include a neck portion and a collar portion.

The base wader includes a waterproof and breathable fabric. An outer protective cover positioned outside the base wader waterproof and breathable fabric provides a plurality of sewn or welded seams features that allow water to pass through, but the base wader fabric prevents leaking water from leaking to the inner side of the base wader. The removable outer bib/pant is placed over the upper portion of the base wader. The tear-away insulated liner is configured for permitting the wearer to tear away and remove the tear-away insulated liner while wearing the base wader and the removable outer bib/pant without having to remove the base wader and the removable outer bib/pant while standing in the body of standing or slowly moving water.

A thermally insulating article of warmth such as an article of apparel is described and includes removable thermally insulating flexible panels disposed and removably secured between the outer shell fabric and the inner lining fabric. The thermally insulating panels are inserted through an opening having a closure and is retained in position between the outer fabric shell and inner liner by detachable fasteners. The panels are removed to change them with panels having different thermal values or properties to adapt to different climatic conditions or to wash the article without the insulation. By removing the insulation panels the article is less bulky to wash and dry and takes less time for washing and drying while preventing damage to the insulation, particularly if constructed of insulating material which absorbs humidity and has a tendency to form clumps when subjected to impact and stretching forces by the action of a washing and drying machine by being removable. The inner liner may also be detachable and formed as a pouch for the removable securement of the thermally insulating flexible panels.
