Abstract

An article of clothing having at least one thermal insulating element in at least one predetermined zone, wherein the insulating element is at least partially incompressible.

What is claimed is:  
     
         1 . An article of clothing comprising: 
 at least one element of thermal insulation in at least one predetermined zone of the article of clothing, said element of thermal insulation being at least partially incompressible under effect of forces exerted during use of said article of clothing.    
     
     
         2 . An article of clothing according to  claim 1 , wherein the insulating element is arranged in an area adapted to be positioned at shoulder zone of a wearer.  
     
     
         3 . An article of clothing according to claims  1 , wherein the insulating element is arranged in an area adapted to be positioned at a wearer's buttocks.  
     
     
         4 . An article of clothing according to claims  1 , wherein the insulating element is arranged in an area adapted to be positioned on a palm of a hand of a wearer.  
     
     
         5 . An article of clothing according to  claim 1 , wherein the insulating element is arranged in an area adapted to be positioned at a front surface of a wearer's thighs.  
     
     
         6 . An article of clothing according to  claim 1 , wherein the insulating element is arranged in an area adapted to be positioned at a wearer's chest.  
     
     
         7 . An article of clothing according to  claim 1 , wherein the insulating element comprises at least one of PU foam, PE foam, EVA foam, and neoprene.  
     
     
         8 . An article of clothing according to  claim 1 , wherein the insulating element comprises an inflatable pocket of air.  
     
     
         9 . An article of clothing according to  claim 1 , wherein the insulating element comprises an agglomeration of polymer beads.  
     
     
         10 . An article of clothing according to  claim 1 , wherein the insulating element comprises polar.  
     
     
         11 . An article of clothing according to  claim 1 , wherein the article of clothing is an undergarment.  
     
     
         12 . An article of clothing according to  claim 1 , wherein the article of clothing is an outer garment.  
     
     
         13 . An element for thermal insulation for an article of clothing, said insulating element comprising: 
 at least one element of thermal insulation adapted to be positioned in at least one predetermined zone of the article of clothing, said element of thermal insulation being at least partially incompressible under effect of forces exerted during use of said article of clothing.    
     
     
         14 . An insulating element for an article of clothing according to  claim 13 , wherein said element is removable from the article of clothing.
