Effects of the brassiere shoulder straps with different elastic fabrics combination on body pressure.

When dressed in the brassiere, the pressure of the shoulder straps has a significant impact on pressure comfort of the whole shoulder. In order to investigate the effect of pressure comfort imposed to the human skin by the shoulder straps spliced in different fabric combinations, six subjects were selected, when different postures were carried out, the pressure sustained by the shoulder straps, which were made from different elastic recovery rate fabrics, were measured objectively by the air-pack pressure tester AMI3037, and the pressure values on the shoulder straps and its distribution rules were obtained. It was proved that the pressure comfort of shoulder straps under certain postures was influenced by the setting position of elastic fabrics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
