The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of clothing pressure in the lower limbs upon the skin-surface characteristics by garment restraint.
The tests were made on eight female subjects wearing garters of several types (width, pressure-load) to answer the pressure sensation, and to measure the pressure degree of their each part on stepping action.
Then the relation between the comfort and the skin-surface characteristic by clothing pressure was studied and discussed. The results were as follows :
1) The hardness on skin-surface in the up-standing posture was more than that especially of lower leg girth, in the sitting posture which recorded the maximum value.
2) The pressure sensation in the thigh and the knee was more sensitive, and most of the subjects complained of discomfort when wearing tight garter in these parts.
3) The clothing pressure recorded high degree at the outside of thigh where the skin-surface characteristic was hard and with small movement, while that at the inside of thigh showed the opposite tendency.
4) The pressure sensation depended on the clothing pressure and the control load of garter.
