improving comfort in apparel, from controlling thermal comfort and
managing moisture, to enhancing body movement comfort in various
garments. Part three reviews methods of improving comfort whilst

protective garments, sports wear and cold weather clothing The
international team of contributors to Improving comfort in clothing
has produced a unique overview of numerous aspects of clothing
comfort, provides an excellent resource for researchers and
