The hooded garment includes a hood extending upward from the neck region and having a front opening, a right sleeve extending from a right shoulder region of the right torso region and having a first wrist opening, and a left sleeve extending from a left shoulder region of the left torso region and having a second wrist opening.

Disclosed is a technical training garment configured for use with modular, interchangeable biomechanics units and or resistance modules. The garment may provide resistance to movement throughout an angular range of motion and or tracks a variety of biomechanical parameters such as stride length, stride rate, angular velocity and power expended by the wearer. The garment may be low profile, and worn by a wearer as a primary garment or beneath or over conventional clothing or athletic uniform. The device may be worn as a supplemental training and or diagnostic tool during conventional training protocols, or as a biomechanics or biometric data capture device during competition.

A wearable signal blocking device and method is provided. The wearable signal blocking device comprises a flexible sheet configured to be worn by a user and a panel defining a cavity for receiving an electronic device and at least partially obscuring a signal therefrom. The wearable signal blocking method comprises the steps of providing a flexible sheet having a panel disposed diagonally to a first corner between a first side and a second side thereof; inserting the electronic device into the cavity; rolling the panel and the first corner once or more toward a third corner of the flexible sheet; folding a second corner and a fourth corner of the flexible sheet inward toward the panel; and rolling the panel once or more into the third corner. The wearable signal blocking method alternatively comprises the steps of providing a flexible sheet having a panel disposed along a first corner between a first side and a second side thereof; inserting the electronic device into the cavity; rolling the first side and the panel once or more toward a third side of the flexible sheet; and rolling the second side and the panel once or more toward a fourth side of the flexible sheet.

A ventricular assist device controller holding garment assembly includes a shirt that has a front side, a back side, a first lateral side, a second lateral side, a right sleeve, and a left sleeve. The shirt has a neck opening and a torso opening and bounds an interior space. A front pocket is positioned on an outer surface of the front side of the shirt. The front pocket is positioned nearer to the torso opening than the neck opening and has an upper edge comprising an access opening of the front pocket. The front pocket has an exterior wall. A shield comprising a heat resistant material is positioned between the exterior wall and the interior space. A controller receiving space is defined between the exterior wall and the shield and holds a controller for a ventricular assist device.

The invention relates to a safety pocket for a work shirt, the safety pocket including, a pocket body suitable to receive items that the wearer would like to carry with them with ready access, having a back and front wall. An opening to the pocket body is formed between the front and back of the pocket body, and a safety means, is associated with the opening. The safety means acts to substantially catch and hold the items within the pocket body, if the person leans forward and the safety means may be moved between an open state, where items can be put inside the pocket body, and a secure state where items are substantially prevented from passing through the opening. The invention also relates to a variant to retrofit to existing pockets. The invention also relates to an improved work shirt, including the safety pocket.

An article of clothing can include a clothing body adapted to be worn by a user. The article of clothing can include a pocket assembly formed as part of the clothing body. The pocket assembly can include an inner panel disposed as a part of the pocket assembly. The inner panel can include an electrically conductive material. The pocket assembly can also include an outer panel disposed as a part of the pocket assembly that is farther than the inner panel from a user wearing the article of clothing. The article of clothing can include an RFID tag coupled to the clothing body. The RFID tag can store radio-frequency shielding information regarding the electrically conductive material of the article of clothing.

The present invention is designed to allow for complete customization of a flexible item, e.g. a modular handbag system. The invention can therefore be outfitted for multi-uses, such as a personal handbag, diaper bag, backpack, insulated cooler, storage tote, satchel, laptop and work bag, or a gym bag among other uses, with handles or shoulder strap or other carrying options as applicable. Said bag system may comprise one or more outer bag shells which allow for straps and/or handles and/or modular attachments to be attached to it. An outer bag shell may house a modular inner bag outfitted with a series of fastener systems to allow for complete interior customization. Furthermore, the present invention describes a fully functional smart flexible item, e.g. smart bag that espouses a system for delivering power from a battery located in an outer bag shell, and/or in an inner bag, and/or in a modular attachment (e.g. pockets) to an outer bag shell, and/or an inner bag, and/or one or more modular attachments featuring technological components. Finally, the power delivery system can be applied to a variety of soft goods, most notably: clothing, outdoor gear, home furnishing covers, and personal accessories.

Provided is a receptacle system, including a receptacle chassis that defines a volume and that defines, at an edge of the receptacle chassis, an aperture that provides access to the volume. The receptacle chassis includes a first face that is adjacent the volume, and a second face that is opposite the receptacle chassis from the first face and that is adjacent to an exterior volume. The receptacle chassis includes an object securing system that is included on at least one of the first face or the second face, and that is configured to secure the receptacle chassis to an object. Also, provided is a receptacle template system, including a planar member defines a first slot and a second slot that extend through the planar member from a first face to a second face and that are configured to receive a cutting device.
