Abstract

A garment in which a cinched portion having a concave shape is formed between a portion below the underarm and a portion of a waist so as to have a circumferential length shorter than a circumferential length of the portion of the waist, the cinched portion is configured such that a pressure Pr (hPa) applied to the wearer satisfies a relationship of B>A and B>C≥D when A is an uppermost portion where cinching starts, B is an intermediate portion where the cinching is maximum and the circumferential length is shortest, C is a lowermost portion where the cinching ends, and D is the portion of the waist, below the underarm, and the portion of B is configured such that the left and right-side surfaces are located in a region from a sixth rib R6 to a tenth rib R10 of the wearer.

1 . A garment comprising a body that has a stretchable tubular shape and covers a front surface, left and right-side surfaces, and a rear surface of a wearer below an underarm of the wearer, wherein
 a cinched portion having a concave shape is formed between a portion below the underarm and a portion of a waist so as to have a circumferential length shorter than a circumferential length of the portion of the waist,   the cinched portion is configured such that a pressure applied to the wearer satisfies a relationship of B>A and B>C≥D when A is an uppermost portion where cinching starts, B is an intermediate portion where the cinching is maximum and the circumferential length is shortest, C is a lowermost portion where the cinching ends, and D is the portion of the waist, and   the portion of B is configured such that the left and right-side surfaces are located in a region from a sixth rib to a tenth rib of the wearer.   
     
     
         2 . The garment according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the body includes a front body and a rear body,   the front body is formed so as to cover the front surface, the left and right-side surfaces, and left and right-side portions of the rear surface of the wearer below the underarm of the wearer,   the rear body is formed so as to cover the rear surface of the wearer that is not covered with the front body below the underarm of the wearer,   left and right sewn lines of the front body and the rear body are provided on the rear surface of the wearer, and   of the left and right sewn lines, left and right sewn line portions of the cinched portion each have a concave shape having a curvature greater than or equal to a concave shape that is an outer shape of the cinched portion in a left-right width direction.   
     
     
         3 . The garment according to  claim 1 , further comprising a left sleeve and a right sleeve that have a stretchable tubular shape and cover an upper portion of an upper left arm and an upper portion of an upper right arm of the wearer, wherein
 each base end of the left sleeve and the right sleeve is sewn to the body above the cinched portion such that a solid shape of each of the left sleeve and the right sleeve is inclined backward by an angle θ with respect to a solid shape when covering both arms of a standard human body.   
     
     
         4 . The garment according to  claim 2 , further comprising a left sleeve and a right sleeve that have a stretchable tubular shape and cover an upper portion of an upper left arm and an upper portion of an upper right arm of the wearer, wherein
