Compression and its influence on physiology 4. Compression for medical uses 5. Evaluation of compression for sportswear 5.1 Effects of using compression garments 6. Application of compression sportswear 6.1Cycling 6.2 Skiing 6.3 Rugby 7 Market trends in compression sportswear 8 Contextual factors affecting compression garment performance 1. Garment sizing 2. Body shape 3. Sizing and designing with stretch fabrics 4. Fabric panels 9 Summary and conclusions 10 References 1.0 INTRODUCTION Sport and exercise involves physical movement of the body (torso, upper and lower limbs) and, in some cases, amateurs and professionals alike endure soft tissue injury. At the elite level, improved individual performance during a tournament or a game is vital. Many athletes consider that compression of muscles to support, enhance muscle alignment and improve the efficiency of muscle movements is essential. They also adopt the adage of strapping the injured part to assist recovery from injury. In recent years, there has been an increase in usage and demand for compression garments for a 1 number of sportswear applications and recreational activities due to their ability to offer functional support to the wearer. The main aim of this chapter is to present research relating to compression garments and highlight the recent developments relating to specific sports such as cycling, skiing and rugby. The benefits of compression garments were documented in various settings (sports, clinical and non-clinical), although convincing evidence remains elusive. The reported benefits of using compression garments were mainly in enhancing blood circulation, reducing the recurrence of injury, aiding recovery, providing muscle support and reducing muscle soreness.

  • Performance of Compression Garments for Cyclists
    Venkatraman et al PERFORMANCE OF COMPRESSION GARMENTS FOR CYCLISTS The Textile Institute’s International Conference on ADVANCES IN FUNCTIONAL TEXTILES 25-26th July 2013 Chancellor’s Hotel and Conference Centre, Manchester, UK Authors: Venkatraman, P.D., Tyler, D.J., Ferguson-Lee, L., and Bourke, A. Manchester Metropolitan University Department of Clothing Design and Technology Hollings Faculty, Old Hall Lane, Manchester, UK M14 6HR Abstract Base layer compression garments had been used by professional cyclists to enhance their performance. To date there is significant body of evidence relating to compression modalities in treating patients suffering from leg ulcers. However, research relating to sportswear compression garment is varied and inconclusive, a few research suggested benefit to athletes or aid recovery from exercise. This depends on a number of factors such as material (fabric/garment design, interaction), athlete (body shape, intensity of use, fitness, and perception) and type of sport or use (intensive or casual). The current research intends to establish a knowledge base by exploring the performance of garments using a combination of laboratory investigations and wearer perceptions. Four commercially available compression garments were evaluated for its performance. These include two professional brands (SKINS, RAPHA) and retail brands (Sub-dual and Sports Direct Muddyfox). The pressure profile of these garments was investigated on participants using Tekscan pressure sensors on various points (lower limb). Wearer trial investigated their perceptions for its fit, comfort, ease of wear, tactile sensation, and overall satisfaction. Various textile parameters evaluating garment durability, comfort, colourfastness and stability facilitated in determining its efficacy. In addition, wearer trials were conducted to measure physiological measurements.

  • Empowerment of Honduran Workers Through United Students Against
    Shelby Mastovich How has the Empowerment of Honduran Workers been influenced by United Students Against Sweatshops? Abstract With globalization increasing the “Race to the Bottom” in many industries, there has also been a rise in activism to combat the abuses to workers’ rights associated with this trend. One of these initiatives, United Students Against Sweatshops, a democratic student-run labor activist organization, has had a significant impact within the realm of workers’ rights activism. In this paper, I look at what type of influence the group has had with its campaigns focusing on workers. In particular, I am analyzing the background, actions, and effects of the case of its campaign against the brand Russell Athletic and how it has influenced the level of empowerment of workers that work for the brand in its Honduran factories. What is United Students Against Sweatshops? The year of 1997 brought about the birth of United Students Against Sweatshops, a group that would alter the way in which student and worker power was perceived. It created a spike in efforts within the fight against corporate greed and exploitation in solidarity between the students and workers (Krupat, 2002: 112). By this time, globalization had already dramatically transformed the way in which a vast amount of goods were produced and consumed. During the 1990s, the common view of globalization was that big business investment and trade cross-nationally could only result in positive relationships in the international sphere (Naím, 2009: 30). Despite what good may come from globalization, by 1997 it was clear that its effects were not always to the benefit of working peoples.

  • Taking a Closer Look at the Moral Fabric of Athletic Footwear an INDUSTRY ANALYSIS
    Taking a Closer Look at the Moral Fabric of Athletic Footwear AN INDUSTRY ANALYSIS © 2020 Center for a Humane Economy. All Rights Reserved. SUMMARY Signicant developments in plant-based fabrics, plastics, and other synthetic products have spurred a sharp reduction in the amount of leather in footwear in the last decade, particularly in athletic shoes. The total number of shoes containing leather has declined by tens of millions in recent years. When you hear the name Stella McCartney, you might initially think of a high-end fashion show with models striding down the runway, cameras clicking, from New York to Paris to Milan. McCartney is also known for items suited to a dierent kind of runway — the track and eld kind. Her latest collection of shoes and athletic wear for adidas launched in March 2009, marking over a decade of collaboration between the fashion icon and the tness powerhouse. McCartney’s athletic wear line does not just strive for good-looking apparel. It’s also animal-friendly. Her line shuns leather, fur, feathers, wool, or other animal products. The McCartney brand equals cruelty-free. Adding to the sustainability credentials of these products, about 70 % of the fabrics McCartney uses come from recycled materials. Last year adidas released a cruelty-free shoe assembled with heat rather than glue that also addresses the international disposal of millions of pairs headed for landlls. According to Eric Leidtke, adidas’ executive board member responsible for global brands, “Futurecraft Loop is [the] rst running shoe that is made to be remade.” The key to its recyclability is the shoe’s design, which utilizes only a single ingredient – thermoplastic polyurethane – rather than the typical 12-15 materials which make recycling so dicult.
