"Compression Garment Weighting System" in Patent Application Approval Process (USPTO 20240050796).

A patent application for a compression garment weighting system has been filed by inventor Taylor Bond. The system aims to enhance the utility of compression garments for sports and medical users by allowing for the customization of weighted areas. The compression garments can be provided with weights already engaged or can be configured for users to choose and mount weights in desired locations. The weights are flexible and elastic, and can be made of polymeric material or woven/knitted textile material with metallic or heavy components. The invention provides a compression garment that imparts a compressed contact against the body and includes weights positioned on the shoulders, thighs, and potentially other areas of the body. The weights can be removably engaged with the garment mounts, allowing for flexibility and customization. [Extracted from the article]
