Upper garment

Abstract

The present invention has an object to provide an upper garment that prevents sleeves from dropping and a garment body from unnecessarily largely moving, is less likely to lose its shape, and can provide a comfortable wear feeling, even during strenuous exercise such as sports, particularly, when the arm is raised or rotated. A sleeve peak point 6 of an armhole 5 is located between: a trapezius muscle stop point b1 on a shoulder ridge line L of a wearer in an arm A lowered state; and a trapezius muscle stop point b3 on the shoulder ridge line L of the wearer in an arm A raised state, whereby an arm bending point during arm raising and the armhole 5 coincide with each other. Hence, when the arm A is raised or rotated, sleeves 4 are prevented from dropping, and a garment body is prevented from unnecessarily largely moving. Further, a portion of the armhole 5 on a front garment body 2 side is designed to pass through a deltopectoral groove between a deltoid muscle E and a pectoralis major muscle D of the wearer, whereby the upward retainability of the sleeves and the position stability of the garment body are further improved.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to an upper garment that is less likely to lose its shape and can provide a comfortable wear feeling even during strenuous exercise such as sports, because armhole shapes of sleeves of the upper garment are devised.BACKGROUND ART[0002]Up to now, upper garments that are expected to provide wear feelings improved by devising sleeve shapes are disclosed in Patent Literature 1 and Patent Literature 2.[0003]Unfortunately, these upper garments are likely to lose their shapes and cannot provide comfortable wear feelings during strenuous exercise such as sports.[0004]A conventional upper garment 11 used for sports shirts and the like includes a front garment body 12, a back garment body 13, and sleeves 14. The sleeves 14 and the front garment body 12 are sewn to each other through armholes 15, and the sleeves 14 and the back garment body 13 are sewn to each other through the armholes 15.[0005]Examples of the sleeves 14 having shapes standar...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention provides an upper garment that has a point where the arms bend and the armhole match. This design helps keep the garment in shape and comfortable to wear during physical activity, such as sports.

Problems solved by technology

Unfortunately, these upper garments are likely to lose their shapes and cannot provide comfortable wear feelings during strenuous exercise such as sports.
