A garment for use by outdoors persons permits mobility and includes an integral foot and leg warming tubular bag section that is readily deployed without requiring removal of the garment. The garment including integral foot and leg warming tubular bag section may be carried initially in a bundle at the small of the back using straps in much the same manner as a fanny pack. The user unfastens and then drops the foot and leg warming tubular bag section of the garment to the floor, where a closure is provided to enable the bottom of the bag to be sealed around the legs and the feet. Once deployed and sealed, the bottom portion of the bag works much like a sleeping bag to conserve the body's heat. |

The invention is an improved process for promoting bonding between parent and infant. The invention is also a garment for use with this process. The garment is a shirt made from scent-absorbing fabric. The shirt's sleeves and torso portion are secured together using hook and loop fasteners, allowing the sleeves to be detached. The parent wears the shirt for a period of time long enough for the shirt to absorb the scent. The parent then detaches a sleeve, using it or the torso of the garment to form an infant's blanket. After wrapping the infant in the blanket, the parent can then leave the infant in the care of someone else, and the infant will still be able to smell the scent of the parent. |
