Abstract: An elastic skin suit simulates gravitational loading. By selecting material(s) of appropriate dimensions and appropriate module of elasticity, and optionally integrating inelastic portions to maintain a desired surface distribution, the suit can be adapted to impose a loading regime that simulates the loading of terrestrial gravity in a more continuous, shoulder-to-ankle manner than current loading suits.

Abstract: An athletic garment including a panel designed to reduce frictional and pressure drag around an appendage of an athlete competing in a high-speed event, such as running and cycling. The panel is positioned to encircle the appendage, and is provided with regions having different surface texture roughnesses. The leading edge of the panel includes texture designed to enhance the laminar boundary layer, while the adjacent portion of the panel includes texture intended to trip the boundary layer to turbulent flow. The drag-reducing panel may be the cuff of a sock, a sleeve, wristband, a headband, or the like.

Abstract: An ear muff style ear protector device having a body for permitting positioning on a wearer's head, and two ear muff ear protectors connected with the body, so the ear protectors can be operatively held relative to a wearer's ears. At least one ear protector can be adapted to selectively enable the wearer to temporarily reduce the level of sound protection to the respective ear to enable external sounds to be heard more clearly. In an embodiment the body is an eye protector assembly, which is connected to the two ear muff ear protectors.

Abstract: An exercise garment for retaining heat around an abdomen, a lower back, and portions of a pelvic area and a buttocks of a person to help lose weight in those areas during a workout includes an upper garment section being positioned over a portion of an upper torso of the person when the upper garment section is worn. A waist constricting band is coupled to a bottom edge of the upper garment section to constrict against the skin and secure the upper garment section in position. A lower garment section is positioned over a lower torso and upper legs of the person and is coupled to the constricting band opposite the upper garment section. An interior panel is coupled to and extends between the upper garment section and the lower garment section. The interior panel extends over the areas to increase heat retention and sweating during the workout.

Abstract: A visor configuration for inside the brim of a baseball cap, that solves the problem of discomfort due to pressure against a baseball cap wearer's forehead, by providing a mechanism that enables a single, continuous piece of visor material with a T-shaped cut out space in the visor's middle section and two arched shaped cut out spaces in the visor's sides to have a cushioning effect as a result of newly allowed motion.

Abstract: A head and neck support device includes first and second head support members that may be positioned in complimentary opposing locations to a rear area of the head. Each head support member comprises a substantially rectangular shaped pillow that may be affixed to headwear (e.g., hat) or a headband. The first and second head support members are configured to complimentarily support and distribute a weight of the head to substantially bypass a neck or the wearer and effectuate translation of the forces of gravity (somewhat equally) to the sides of the head of the wearer.

Abstract: A one-piece garment is presented, such as a pajama for toddlers, which prevents removal of the garment by the toddler and keeps the toddler from gaining access to his diaper. The one-piece garment may be modified for wearers of any size and/or age so that the wearer cannot remove his own garment or disturb garments or medical devices that are worn under the one-piece garment.
