Abstract: A ponytail holder with an inner elastic band and an outer cushioning sleeve. The sleeve is made from at least two fabrics, one of which has a lower coefficient of friction than the other. The lower frictional fabric is located on the inner portion of the ponytail holder and contacts the wearer's hair. The sleeve's outer portion is made from a more absorbent fabric that can be printed upon more easily than the inner portion.

Abstract: A sleeve holder for maintaining a garment sleeve in a rolled-up condition adjacent a person's shoulder includes a body and attachment portions connected to opposite ends of the body. The body includes a cover and an elastic core located within an interior of the cover. The cover defines a cross section that reduces in size between an intermediate part of the cover and the ends of the body. The attachment portions support hook and loop portions of a hook and loop connector for releasable engagement between the attachment portions. The cover is attached to the core adjacent the ends of the body while the core is held at a stretched length to form gathered portions of the cover when the core is released to a relaxed length.
