Insulated paneling for active sports

Abstract

To provide an active insulation paneling component and a garment with the same.SOLUTION: An active insulation paneling component comprises an insulating panel separated by a gusset. The gusset is configured to expand with an outward tensile force so as to expand the active insulation paneling component and / or a garment even if the active insulation paneling component and / or the garment is not made of an elastic material.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1A

Claims
