Vented cooling garment

Abstract:

Concepts provided are directed to garments and methods of making garments with enhanced cooling and airflow. The garments created are provided with airflow channels by lifting the garment off from the skin of a wearer. Particularly, the lift is created in areas of greater contact by providing a flocked silicone dimensional pattern aligned with a plurality of perforations. The enhanced airflow provided by the garments in accordance with aspects hereof also results in enhanced moisture evaporation from the wearer's skin, which also aids in the cooling of the wearer's body.
