Patent number: 11229250Abstract: The present invention relates to breathable, vented, and insulating cold weather garments. More particularly, the present invention relates to garments with chambers to retain an insulating fill material. Perforations along the seams between the insulating chambers may achieve optimal evaporative moisture transfer from the inside (proximal to the body of a wearer) of the garment to the outside environment.Type: GrantFiled: June 12, 2019Date of Patent: January 25, 2022Assignee: NIKE, INC.Inventors: Luke A. Pezzimenti, Lindsey V. J. Martin, Irena Ilcheva

Publication number: 20200288794Abstract: A vortex generator might be attached to various types of articles to reduce the drag. For example, vortex generators might be attached to a garment or to adhesive tape. In addition, vortex generators might be attached to various types of athletic equipment. A mapping can suggest placement of a vortex-generator arrangement on an article, as well as prescribe particular vortex-generator arrangements for regions of a person.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 29, 2020Publication date: September 17, 2020Inventors: Yuki Aihara, Leonard W. Brownlie, Jorge E. Carbo, JR., Edward K, Harber, Ryan P. Henry, Irena Ilcheva, Susan L. Sokolowski

Patent number: 8585746Abstract: An article of apparel may include a polymer chamber element that defines an interior void for containing a substance in either a liquid or a solid state. Depending upon the substance located within the chamber element, the apparel may be utilized for increasing or decreasing the body temperature of the individual. The chamber element may have a plurality of subchambers, which may have a triangular shape and may be in fluid communication. In some configurations, the subchambers may have different sizes or volumes.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 2007Date of Patent: November 19, 2013Assignee: NIKE, Inc.Inventors: Irena Ilcheva, Edward L.
