<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide flexible clothing making movement of wearers easy and having adequate buoyancy. <P>SOLUTION: The separation type swimsuit 1 as one example of clothing is composed of west 2 and pants 3 and several belt-like pockets 4 in the vertical direction by the lining fabric are each formed in the both of these west 2 and pants 3 and several thin strip-like buoyancy sheets 5 each made of low-density polyethylene are inserted in superposed state in each of these pockets 4. Since the swimsuit 1 has buoyancy wholly, whole the body floats with adequate buoyancy by only wearing the swimsuit 1. Since the swimsuit 1 just fits the body and the buoyancy sheet 5 is soft, the wearer is very movable and the swimsuit 1 does not prevent swimming. As a result, physically-handicapped persons, aged persons and nonswimmers can receive underwater rehabilitation and swimming lesson without anxiety. Since the buoyancy can finely be adjusted by adjustment of the numbers of the buoyancy sheets, the swimsuit 1 does not cause excessive floating and the swimsuit 1 is appreciated also in children's swimming schools. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2003,JPO |
