Garment

Abstract

A garment is provided with a main part which consists of a front body section, a back body section and sleeves extending from front and back body sections toward both arm sides over shoulders, and a pair of first tightening parts separately placed in right and left areas located at the positions of right and left deltoid muscles covering the boundary of the wearer's shoulder and upper arm in the back side, wherein the front and back body sections and the upper arm sections of the sleeves comprise at least two kinds of stretch materials, which differ in stretchability from each other, including a material for the main part and a material for the first tightening parts having a lower stretchability than the main part.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to garments, in particular, to a garment capable of holding a posture in which the chest is elevated and the back is straightened and capable of improving a body function by simply being worn, and particularly suitably used as an undershirt.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Various types of inner wears for correcting a posture or for supporting and assisting the movement of the muscles during exercise and during walking are conventionally provided.[0003]In the posture correcting garment of Japanese Patent Publication No. 2006-320640 (patent document 1), a tension section having a shape of a laterally facing letter H, including tension parts 100, 102 separately located in left and right horizontal directions at an upper part and a lower part on a neck side and a tension part 102 for coupling middles of the upper and lower tension parts 100, 101 is attached to an inner surface of a main body 105. It describes that left and right...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0098]When the top garment and the bottom garment are worn as a set, the fatigue on both the upper body side and the lower body side can be reduced, and a physically and mentally cleared state can be achieved.

[0099]Since the chest is elevated with the top garment, the back muscle is straightened, and the middle of the buttocks is held down and the hip joint is held with the bottom garment, the standing posture becomes a straight and correct posture, and furthermore, the step becomes greater at the time of walking and the hands can be swung to the back side greatly, thereby aiding the correct walking posture. In addition, the step and the walking speed can also be increased.

[0100]According to the garment of the first aspect of the invention, the first tightening parts are arranged on the left and the right separately at the site of the left and right shoulder deltoid muscles, thereby stimulating the shoulder deltoid muscles of the wearer so as to be conscious, inducing the left and right scapulae to expand to the back side without generating a tightening feeling on the back side to straighten the back. As a result, an increase in heart rate and breath rate can be suppressed or reduced, and the body function can be enhanced in simply wearing. The step and the walking speed can also be increased.

[0101]According to the set garment of the second aspect of the invention, the center of gravity of the lower body can be stabilized with the bottom garment, and hence the walking posture can be induced to a straight and correct posture together with the top garment. Furthermore, the femoral area can be pushed forward and the walking is aided, so that the step increases at the time of walking and the swing of the hands to the back side can be made large with the top garment, whereby the walking posture can be aided to the correct posture with a large step and a large swing of the hands.

Problems solved by technology

In such a case, it is difficult to expand the left and right scapulaes to improve a posture unless the force of pulling the left and right scapulae to each other is made stronger by the tension section.
