The fastening mechanism of one article of clothing can then be matched to an interlocking fastening mechanism of another article of clothing thereby joining the two articles of clothing together. The chemical agent and subsequent fastening mechanism is generally desired to be non-reactive and is preferably resistant to water and heat. This allows the article of clothing to be worn and washed as normal without a loss of functionality. 1. A fastening system comprising: 'wherein the first patch is treated with a chemical agent causing the at least one first fastening mechanism to be formed from the first layer; and', 'wherein the at least one first fastening mechanism comprises a first patch of the first surface,'}, 'a first layer having at least one first fastening mechanism,'} 'wherein the second patch is treated with the chemical agent causing the at least one second fastening mechanism to be formed from the second layer; and', 'wherein the at least one second fastening mechanism comprises a second patch of the second layer,'}, 'a second layer having at least one second fastening mechanism,'}wherein the at least one first fastening mechanism has a shape that is complementary to a shape of the at least one second fastening mechanism.2.

Принадлежит: Individual

A garment for a human lower extremity with variable elasticity in the toe, heel and body of the garment is provided. A band of decreased elasticity is incorporated into the body of the sock extending from the toe area to the proximal end of the garment. A novel method for applying the sock includes twisting the garment, which results in providing targeted neuromuscular stimulation by the band to the location on the human lower extremity that the user positions the band over, thus improving alignment, gait, balance, circulation, and decreasing swelling and injury. Twisting of the garment also selectively increases a level of compression applied by the garment at said location relative to a level of pressure applied at adjacent locations. The location of the band and amount of compression generated by the garment is customizable by the wearer, depending upon the degree of twist chosen by the wearer.
