Innovations in the design of functional clothing: studying the compression effects in lower body garments

This article examines the impact of compression elements in the design of functional clothing for the lower body on human physiological functions such as blood circulation and muscle support. The study aims to assess the effectiveness of innovative designs implemented in four patented clothing developments. The methodology included experimental testing with a group of volunteers, as well as an analysis of patents and functional tests aimed at assessing changes in the physiological state of the subjects. The results confirmed that the integration of compression elements contributes to improved blood circulation, reduced physical fatigue, and increased overall comfort while wearing. Thus, the study demonstrates the significant potential of compression clothing in enhancing the functional characteristics of sports and everyday clothing, which may influence further development in this direction in the textile industry.
