| Abstract: |
Items of clothing that have a predetermined shape that is maintained when not being worn, including a shell and a waterproof, breathable inner layer. The shell comprises an outer closely woven synthetic fabric, a relatively high-tensile-strength stratum printed on the inner face thereof and covering from 10 to 90% of the surface of the inner face, and fluorocarbon impregnation thereof. The stratum may be printed in a variety of patterns.
