SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26) Implementation of a utility model

The proposed item of clothing is a trouser product containing (Fig. 1): a belt 101; trouser legs 102; first compression element 103; second compression element 104; third compression element 105; fourth compression element 106; fifth compression element 107.

The trouser product as a whole is made of tight-fitting elastic material, while it contains elements with different stretchability (some elements are easier to stretch, some are more difficult), compression inserts are less stretchable compared to other elements of the trouser product. The elastic tensile limits of the materials used may vary, but are typical for fabrics used in clothing.

If the legs were covered with one fabric, then there would be no significant correction of the shape of the legs (there would be uniform compression of the muscles), and due to the fact that elements of the trouser product with less stretchability are used (compared to the surrounding fabric), the areas of the target muscles are compressed more strongly, which leads to correction of the shape of the legs (at least the gluteal muscles rise and the thigh muscles visually narrow when viewed in the frontal direction).

The dimensions of the elements of the claimed trouser product may vary depending on the size of the garment, but some geometric parameters of some elements may remain unchanged (for example, the width of the elements is 103-107). For the manufacture of elements 101-107, standard patterns are used. Some deviations in the size of the leg muscles from the standard ones (corresponding to the patterns) somewhat change the compression effect, but in general it remains the same with the correct choice of clothing size.

In a preferred embodiment, the claimed product contains a belt 101, which is made of a less tensile material than the material of the trouser legs 102 (but not the material of the elements 103-107); it may contain latex threads or tapes, which ensures reliable fixation of the product on the hips and/or waist. For ease of understanding, leg material refers to the material between the compression members 103-107 and between the compression member 103 and the waistband. It should be understood that elements 103-107 also form the trouser legs.

Providing fixation of the product on the hips and/or waist allows you to maintain the location of elements 103-107, especially when playing sports or active movements, which in turn allows you to maintain the required compression effect,

3

SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26) because if the trouser product slips, then elements 103-107 will also slip and the figure correction effect will worsen.

The trouser legs 102 contain elements 103-107 and areas not indicated in Fig. 1, 2 that form the trouser legs between the elements 103-107. The fabric of the trouser legs 102 (except for elements 103-107) is made more stretchable compared to the material of the belt 101 and the material of elements 103-107. This solution allows for targeted correction of muscles, for example, the gluteal or thigh muscles.

Compression elements 103-107 are strips of fabric and have a width of 4 to 6 cm. This width is optimal to provide sufficient compression effect and at the same time it ensures wearing comfort. Narrower stripes can create discomfort; wider stripes do not provide a sufficient level of leg shape correction.

The compression element 103 is a strip of elastic fabric that forms a loop running under the gluteal muscles and over the surface of the outer thigh muscles. The ends of the loop are sewn to the belt 101 from the abdomen and from the back, which allows the loop to be securely fixed at a given level (compared to the option in which both ends are sewn to the belt from the abdomen/back) and thereby support the gluteal muscles and compress the muscles loops under the material, which leads to figure adjustment.

The element 103 may partially extend over the gluteal muscles if it provides the stated function. The loop allows you to reliably and effectively lift the gluteal muscles, since its two ends are sewn to the belt 101, which securely fixes the claimed product at the waist.

Throughout the description, for ease of understanding, the location of the fabric strips refers to the location of the middle of the fabric strip, its edges are offset from the specified location (at a distance equal to half the width of the fabric strip).

The lower extensibility of the material of element 103 leads to correction of the shape of the legs in the area of the gluteal muscles, as well as in the area of the lateral muscles of the thighs due to the fact that the section of the loop at the point of formation of the “knot” of the loop is located just on the outer surface of the thigh muscles and is low-extensible. Its lower extensibility is due to the fact that at the intersection there are seams connecting sections of the loop, made of a material that is already quite difficult to stretch. And the seams give even less stretch to the area.

The seams along the lines of connection of the element 103 with the more stretchable fabric of the trousers also provide areas with less stretch, that is, with a greater compression effect. This is due to the fact that several layers of fabric are connected at the seams; in addition, the threads of the seams also provide less elongation, that is, a greater compression effect is provided.

The compression element 104 is a ring made of the same material as the material of the element 103. This ring is sewn to the fabric of the trouser legs and is located at an angle to the horizontal. The upper end of the ring is located above the knee on the inside of the leg and below the middle of the thigh, the lower end of the ring is located in the knee area on the outside of the leg.

4

SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26) The lower end of the element 104 is securely fixed in the narrowest part of the leg, the upper end creates compression of the inner thigh muscles. Elements 103 and 104 together compress the inner thigh muscles, correcting the shape of the inner thighs. This effect is achieved due to the fact that the muscles of the inner thigh are softer compared to the outer muscles covered by elements 103 and 104.

The compression element 105 is a ring made of the same material as the material of the element 103. This ring is sewn to the fabric of the trouser legs and is located at an angle to the horizontal. The upper end of the ring is located in the area of the knee on the outside of the leg, the lower end of the ring is located in the area below the knee and above the upper quarter of the shin on the outside of the leg.

The compression element 106 is a ring made of the same material as the material of the element 103. This ring is sewn to the fabric of the trouser legs and is located at an angle to the horizontal. The upper end of the ring is located above the middle of the shin and below the knee on the inside of the leg, the lower end of the ring is located below the middle of the shin and above the lower third of the shin on the outside of the leg.

Together, element 105 and element 106 adjust the shape of the calf muscles, making the area between elements 105 and 106 slightly more convex and the compressed areas slightly narrower in all directions.

Placing element 105 with one end on the knee allows for better fixation of its location, which more securely fixes the lower end of the ring, since it cannot slide down. It is prevented from rising by element 106, which stretches when rising upward, which causes resistance, and additionally prevents it from rising by element 107. This ensures reliable and effective correction of the shape of the legs.

The compression element 107 is a ring made of the same material as the material of the element 103. This ring is sewn to the fabric of the trouser legs and is located at an angle to the horizontal. The upper end of the ring is located where the lower end of element 106 is located, the lower end of the ring is located below the middle of the shin and above the lower quarter of the shin on the inside of the leg. Element 107 fixes the lower end of the product at the same level and prevents the trouser legs from rising, which increases the reliability of compression of elements 105, 106 in specified locations.

The seams that connect the elements of the trouser product create areas with a higher density of fabric (instead of one layer in these places there are at least three layers), these areas are correspondingly less stretchable and provide a greater level of compression in the target areas.

The product may be of such a height as to sit on the hips or waist, which is not the subject of the present utility model, the only important thing is that the belt 101 must securely fix the product in one place. At the same time, the height of the belt 101 from 5 cm to 16 cm provides the most reliable and comfortable fixation. A height greater than 16 cm, as a rule, does not lead to an increase in the effect of fixation in a given place. A height of less than 5 cm, as a rule, either poorly fixes the product in a given place, or excessively compresses the body, which leads to discomfort when worn.

The shapes of the elements from which the claimed product is made are shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2, the applicant believes that a verbal description of these elements will not provide an understanding of their shape, however, for a person skilled in the art from Fig. 2 and
