A pocket tank top is provided. The tank top comprises a rear pocket formed by a patch attached to the tank top material. The pocket may preferably be on an inner body facing surface of the tank top. Further, front waist level pockets may be provided. The tank top may include a built in bra, such as a shelf bra, cup bra, or sports bra.

The present application provides a wearable technology for enhancing kinesthetic performance. In some variants, a method and system thereof comprises circuitry detecting and responding to a signal of initialization from a human who is wearing a haptic garment by energizing haptic actuators adjacent separate respective body parts.

The wearable article (100) comprises a first portion (101) having first and second opposed margins (103, 105) and a second portion (111) having first and second opposed margins (103, 105). The second portion (111) overlaps part of the first portion (101) in an overlapping region (121) bounded by the second margin (105) of the first portion (101) and the first margin (113) of the second portion (111). A pocket space (127) is formed between the first portion (101) and the second portion (111) in the overlapping region (121).

A smart sweater suit made of sweater material, such as cotton, wool, polyester, or any other suitable fabric. It can be rain-proofed or adapted for use in all weather. There are fringed epaulettes on the shoulders removably attached by hook and loop fasteners. There are pockets for an electronic device capable of interactive voice communication and answering questions posed by the wearer, which may be sold in combination with the suit, and for a laptop computer and a cell phone. In a first preferred embodiment, it has a conventional collar, with a button-down front. The waistband has belt loops. In a second preferred embodiment, the smart sweater suit is made of the same material, but the top is a pullover with no buttons, and a turtleneck. The ends of the sleeves can be elastic or an elastic and drawstring combination. The suit pants have an elastic waistband and drawstring.

In an example, a wearable article includes a nonwoven textile sheet having a first portion and a second portion contiguous with the first portion. The first portion has a first density and a first modulus of elasticity. The second portion has a second density less than the first density and has a second modulus of elasticity less than the first modulus of elasticity. The first portion is shaped differently than the second portion as an integral implement of the wearable article. A method of manufacturing a wearable article may comprise thermoforming the first portion while the second portion contiguous with the thermoformed first portion is not thermoformed.

One embodiment provides an apparatus. The apparatus includes a source conductive path to couple to a load conductive path and to a power source. The source conductive path is included in a garment and the load conductive path is related to a head mounted wearable device (HMWD).

A performance monitoring system includes an athletic band or other article of apparel worn by a user, with a pocket supported by the article and defining a cavity, where the pocket has a sensor opening extending through an inner wall of the pocket and an access opening providing access to the cavity. The system also includes an electronic module received in the cavity such that the module can be inserted and removed from the cavity through the access opening. The module has a projection on an underside of the electronic module and a sensor mounted on the projection, where the projection extends through the sensor opening when the electronic module is received in the cavity and is configured to place the sensor in close proximity to skin of the user, such that the sensor is configured to sense a physiological parameter of the user.

A strap assembly includes a chest strap and shoulder straps. Similarly configured left and right cups are provided. The strap assembly is attached to the cups whereby the strap assembly adheres the cups to a wearer. Each cup has curved upper, lower, interior and exterior edges. Each cup has inside and outside surfaces. A patch is operatively associated with each cup. Each patch has a linear upper edge and curved lower, interior and exterior edges. Each patch has inside and outside surfaces. Stitching couples the lower, interior and exterior edges of each patch to the lower, interior and exterior edges of an associated cup. A linear opening is formed along the upper edge of each patch. Piping covers the upper edge of each patch. The piping is adapted to allow the patch to move away from and back toward the cup between open and closed orientations.

A pocket configured to provide retention of an item in the interior volume thereof. The pocket of the present invention is formed having an outer wall adjacent to the body to which the pocket is secured. The pocket includes opposing lateral edges, a bottom edge and an upper peripheral edge wherein the upper peripheral edge defines the opening of the pocket. A first retention member is present along the upper peripheral edge and is configured to bias the upper peripheral edge against the body. An upper flap member is present and is vertically adjacent the upper peripheral edge. The upper flap member includes an upper edge, opposing side edge and a lower peripheral edge. The lower peripheral edge extends below the upper peripheral edge of the outer wall. A second retention seam member is present along the lower peripheral edge to bias against the outer wall.

A pocket assembly includes an outer panel coupled with a middle panel. The middle panel is coupled between the outer panel and a clothing article. A base is coupled with the outer panel. An elastic portion is formed in the base or the outer panel, or both. A first compartment is formed between the outer panel and middle panel. A second panel is formed between the middle panel and the clothing article and is accessible only through a bottom opening. The elastic portion stretches, in response to downward force, to increase the size of the bottom opening. A back panel may, in implementations, be coupled between the middle panel and the clothing article, and in such implementations the second compartment may be comprised between the middle panel and the back panel. The pocket assembly has only a single opening allowing entry into the first compartment from outside the pocket assembly.
