Abstract

A padded garment having padded chest area. A first fabric layer is fastened on the interior of the garment, the first fabric layer being fastened to a second fabric layer using a first interstitial binding to provide additional padding on the chest of the garment. The second fabric layer is fastened to the garment using a second interstitial binding. The second interstitial binding may align with the existing stitching on the garment, such that the second interstitial binding is not visible or is masked by the existing stitching and fasteners of the garment. The additional first and second fabric layers are thick enough to prevent visibility through the garment.
