Linings for fitting an object to a body part, and their use, are provided. The lining may include a flexible sheet having a fluid impenetrable outer portion enclosing an internal volume and the lining may include barriers forming a number of compartments substantially secured in place within the internal volume. The barriers may be permeable to gas and/or liquid, yet may be impermeable to the conformable material and the gas and/or liquid may be supplied to or aspirated from one or more compartments within the internal volume. Aspiration of gas and/or liquid from the internal volume may limit both deformation of the conformable material and shape adjustment of the flexible sheet.

A support shirt comprising a shirt body and a pair of shirt body sleeves positioned adjacent to an upper shirt body is provided. The sleeves are attached to the shirt body at sleeve body holes, with each of the sleeves including sleeve reinforcement regions extending at least a portion of the distance from the sleeve holes to an outer edge of the sleeves. The sleeve reinforcement regions extend substantially along a centerline extending longitudinally across the sleeves and the upper sleeve body to stabilize and provide support to the shoulders of a wearer during an upward lifting motion.

A lining for items of clothing, footwear and accessories, including a fabric with a plurality of channels which are alternated with ribs, the channels at least partly have a differentiated width.

An adjustable length garment is constructed of a fabric and includes garment parts having respective circumferential hems. The garment further includes first and second hem inserts freely positioned within respective hems of the garment parts and unattached to the fabric of the garment. A circumferentially reinforced cuff is adapted for being formed at the hem of each garment part by turning the hem insert upwardly, such that a width of the cuff corresponds substantially to a width of the flexible strip, thereby shortening the garment part by each upward turn of the hem insert, and returning the garment part to its original length by a corresponding downward turn of the hem insert.

What is disclosed is a holster or pocket in a garment that is supported by a boning material. The garment is typically a waistband, girdle or corset made of elastic, spandex, nylon, polyester, cotton, Lycra, lace, stretchable or compression material. It is a garment that can be worn anywhere on one's torso, including extremities and can include the thighs, derriere and abdomen up to the arms and shoulders and include the front of the chest. The boning material resides between the outside area of the holster or pocket to provide the support necessary to keep the garment or holster material from sagging.
