Abstract: A transformable glove is formed from multiple panels covering the fingertips, palm, and palm heel of a user. In one version, a back panel is joined to a finger panel, a palm panel, and a palm heel panel along side edges to form a glove, while creating openings allowing fingers to be extended outside the glove as desired. The finger panel combines with the distal end of the back panel to form a finger pocket which can be inverted to allow the fingers to emerge from the glove.

Abstract: An improved bottle, retaining device and associated elements for carrying items is disclosed. The retaining device is adapted for holding a container (or containers) or other items; the retaining device being adapted to affix the container by way of the retaining device to a person or a personal item so ready access is provided for the held container/item.

Abstract: An improved bottle having a mating clip is disclosed. The bottle includes a guide, preferably located on opposing sidewalls of the bottle, to direct attachment features of a clip toward mating attachment features of a bottle in order to facilitate attachment of the bottle to the clip in a tactile fashion. The guide further serves as a release mechanism, in which an inward force applied to the guide will cause deflection of the bottle to separate the clip from the bottle.

Abstract: A preferred sleeve for a bottle includes a floor and upwardly extending sidewalls, terminating in an upper rim which forms a shoulder extending partially over the interior space. A detent or detent form is provided along an upper rim, diametrically opposite the shoulder. One or more openings may be provided in the lower portion of the sleeve to facilitate removal of the bottle by tilting it away from the shoulder.

Abstract: A sleeve for use with a mating bottle forms a tubular shape having a top end and a bottom end and an interior space within the tubular shape formed by the sleeve. A light source is carried on the sleeve, the light source being oriented to direct the majority of the light emitted from the light source toward the interior space. One or more holes formed in the sleeve, preferably as a pattern, such that light emitted from the light source and directed toward the interior space is allowed to pass through the one or more holes when the sleeve is attached around the bottle.
