In a garment which can receive a printed circuit board having a sound synthetic chip (10), a sound outputting element (12), a switch (14), a battery (15) and the like mounted on the printed circuit board (20) and which is capable of outputting a sound or breaking the output of the sound by operating the switch (14), said garment comprises a button exposing hole (32) for exposing at least a portion of the button (14a) of said switch (14) and said sound outputting element (12) in front of it; and a moisture-proof paper (70) being positioned between an inner surface of said non-woven fabric pocket (30) and an rear surface of said printed circuit board (20).

A personal amplification sound system includes a microphone adapted to receive a sound and convert the sound into an original source signal, and an amplifier in operable communication with the microphone and adapted to receive the original source signal from the microphone and amplify the original source signal, thereby resulting in an amplified signal. The personal amplification sound system also includes at least one speaker in operable communication with the amplifier and adapted to receive the amplified signal from the amplifier, and an article of clothing adapted to the worn by a user, and that houses the amplifier and the at least one speaker therein.

A fetal educator strap includes an elongated belt defining an interior surface and an exterior surface. A pouch is slidably mounted upon the exterior surface of the belt. A sound generator, including a speaker, is contained within the pouch. The speaker is directed toward the interior surface of the belt. In this manner the pouch containing the sound generator is slidable around the circumference of the belt to the optimum position as determined by the user.

A weighted exercise vest is adapted for wearing on the upper body of a person. The vest has front and rear compartments in which multiple weights may be inserted. The compartments securely hold the weights therein when the wearer is engaged in physical activity. The weight-containing compartments, according to one or more embodiments of the invention, are formed as elongated tubular ribs or pockets and are located across the back, front or sides of the vest. The vest, in a particularly preferred embodiment, also includes a single pocket advantageously located on the upper back portion of the vest, sized to fit other equipment, such as a portable CD or cassette tape player. The outer surface of the weight-containing compartments or pockets is made from elastic material or includes elastic lining or bands to snugly hold the weights or other equipment inserted therein. In a certain embodiments of the invention, the vest has air-pervious panels, for example on the left and right sides, to allow for air circulation between the body of the wearer and the vest.

A musical garment has a plurality of interior pockets disposed on two interior portions of the garment for generating extemporaneous music by hand-impact with a selective pocket portion. Each interior pocket is secured via hook and loop fasteners and includes a sound generating piezoelectric transducer electrically connected thereto for producing multiple signals to a sound generating module. The piezoelectric transducers are sensitized or calibrated to produce a sound having a different sound characteristic compared with other piezoelectric transducers. The sound generating module is removably housed within an interior auxiliary pocket of the garment and utilizes a multiplexer to provide serial output or music for subsequent recording or listening. An acoustic screen is disposed on an exterior surface portion of the garment pocket for acoustically transmitting sound generated from the module. A set of auxiliary piezoelectric transducers are also used for attachment to a user's feet for foot generated sound.
