본 발명은 의류에 관한 것으로, 보다 상세하게 본 발명의 실시예에 따른 칼라 형태의 변형이 가능한 의류는 몸통부 및 칼라를 포함하고, 칼라는 윗 칼라 및 칼라 밴드를 포함하며, 윗 칼라 및 칼라 밴드가 서로 다른 형상으로 형성되어, 직선부 및 곡선부가 상호 대응되는 결합을 통해 다양한 칼라 형태의 변형이 가능하도록 구성될 수 있다. 특히, 윗 칼라 및 칼라 밴드의 곡선부의 곡률을 서로 상이하게 형성함에도 불구하고, 서로 대응되도록 결합하여 칼라가 세워지거나 눕혀지는 경우에도 칼라의 형태가 안정적으로 유지되도록 하고, 외관상 미려하면서도 우수한 방한 효과를 제공할 수 있다.

An airbag system for protecting a body part of a user (3) in case of an accident is provided, comprising an airbag (15) arranged as a collar (10). The collar (10) comprises a first fastening body (31) and a second fastening body (32). The first fastening body (31) comprises at least one magnet (35) arranged near at least one sensor (36), and the second fastening body (32) comprises a shield (34) operable to magnetically shield the at least one sensor (36) from the at least one magnet (35).

An article of apparel may include a textile element that defines a crease. The textile element may be knitted to have a first course and a second course that are adjacent to each other in some areas of the textile element and spaced from each other by a raised course in other areas of the textile element. The crease extends along the third course and has a length that is substantially equal to a length of the third course. In manufacturing the textile element, the raised course may be formed between portions of the first course and the second course through a knitting process, such as a flat knitting process.

A garment includes a collar stand attached to a garment body. The collar stand is formed from an inner piece and an outer piece, and wherein at least one of the inner piece and the outer piece comprises a fabric fused with a rigid fusible substrate. The fabric fused with a rigid fusible substrate has between 0% to 5% stretch, preferably between 0% and 3% stretch, and more preferably between 0% and 2% stretch in at least one direction thereof, and the fabric fused with a rigid fusible substrate has between 0% to 5% shrinkage, preferably between 0% and 3% shrinkage, and more preferably between 0% and 2% shrinkage in said at least one direction thereof.

A pair of notches or slits in a collar can prevent the formation of bulky crests or wrinkling when the collar is arranged in an outer open 'continental style' under a jacket, however there is also a propensity for such a collar to curl up at the notches. The invention herein discloses the use of a fastening means by magnets and/or a combination of magnet/ ferrous metals to prevent the slit borders, forming the edge surfaces of each back section of the collar, from curling up from the shirt surface. The fasteners are realized with magnets and/or a combination of magnets/ ferrous metals which allow the attachment of the tip to the collar band by simply touching the tip to the collar band. The magnets or ferrous metals may be underneath the tip's and the collar's material respectively.

A system monitoring system for the management and collection of environmental and physiological data associated with a subject is discussed. The system preferably includes an article of clothing, namely a t-shirt (10), with a plurality of sensors for example pressure sensors (11), a heart rate sensor (12), a temperature sensor (13), a strain gauge (14). The article of clothing and an electronic module (15) containing a transmitter location module. The sensor data and location information are communicated via the transmitter to head unit or base station for further processing.

A shirt with wear resistant collar, characterised in that the collar consists of a core (6) of flexible plastic material and a covering (14) applied to said core on only the outer side of the collar, but excluding the band (16) at the collar fold, and further comprising means for retaining the ends of the band which wraps the neck.
