A convertible includes a cover, and first and second panels arranged a first distance from a top edge of the cover and a second distance from first and second side edges of the cover, respectively. The first and second panels each have a generally horizontal set of opposing sides and a generally vertical set of opposing sides. The generally horizontal set of opposing sides is attached to the cover and the generally vertical set of opposing sides is not attached to the cover. A method of converting a blanket into a cape is also disclosed.

A waterproof wearable heated cape blanket designed for portability and operated by rechargeable battery pack for heated use outdoors and indoors. The cape blanket comes in a variety of sizes and colors. It is rectangular and about 72 inches or 1.829 meters in length, and about 50 inches or 1.27 meters high, but can be constructed in larger dimensions. It can be constructed from a variety of fabrics and materials. When folded an attached strap is visible and provides a grip surface so that the user can transport the blanket. The weight of the is determined by its size, but easily provides for portability by hand.

The invention relates to a multifunctional garment comprising a textile flat fabric provided with a central opening for the head of the wearer and two further openings for the arms of the wearer, wherein at least two bands being attached to the textile fabric at attachment points and each band being assigned an opening in the textile fabric, wherein the attachment point and the opening of each band being arranged one behind the other in the longitudinal direction, and wherein the textile fabric being provided with an at least partially circumferential zipper, which enables the multifunctional garment to be brought into a sleeping bag form by closing the zipper. The multifunctional garment can be used as a cape/cloak, poncho, blanket or sleeping bag.

The present disclosure generally relates to intelligent garments that provide thermal regulation in a variety of environments. The garments may include different layers such as a hydrophobic layer in direct contact with a wearer's skin surface and saturated with an aqueous mixture, a spacer layer, a reflective layer, and an outer hydrophobic layer. The layers of the garment may work together to reduce the metabolic expenditure of the wearer in extreme environmental conditions or during demanding physical activity. A variety of sensors may be displaced throughout the garments so as to enable the collection of data associated with wearers as well as environmental conditions. Wearers may control the thermal balance and other properties of the garments as desired.
