Abstract
An upper body of a garment prevents a wearer from moving a shoulder forward to put an arm in front of the trunk. The upper body of the garment has a body with a left sleeve and a right sleeve. The body includes a rear body with a left armhole on the left side and a right armhole on the right side. A portion between the armholes exerts a tensile force to pull the shoulder blades of a wearer horizontally inward. The left sleeve includes a rear surface with a left sewn portion sewn to the left armhole. The left sewn portion is narrower in horizontal width than the deepest portion of the left armhole before a rear surface of an upper end of the left sleeve is sewed to the left armhole. The right sleeve is similar.

An upper body garment comprising:
- a body including a rear body and a front body, the rear body having a left armhole on a left side of the body and a right armhole on a right side of the body, wherein a portion of the rear body between the left armhole and the right armhole is configured to exert a tensile force to pull shoulder blades of a wearer horizontally inward;
- a left sleeve including a left sewn portion that is sewn to the left armhole, wherein the left sleeve includes, before being sewn to the left armhole, a first bulge on a rear surface of the left sleeve, wherein the left armhole includes, before the left sleeve is sewn to the left armhole, a first concavity, wherein an apex of the first bulge is narrower in horizontal width than a deepest portion of the first concavity when the first bulge is in an unstretched state, wherein a horizontal width of the apex of the first bulge is measured from a first straight line connecting an upper end of the left sewn portion with a lower end of the left sewn portion, and wherein a horizontal width of the deepest portion of the first concavity is measured from a second straight line connecting an upper end of the left armhole to a lower end of the left armhole;
- and
- a right sleeve including a right sewn portion that is sewn to the right armhole, wherein the right sleeve includes, before being sewn to the right armhole, a second bulge on a rear surface of the right sleeve, wherein the right armhole includes, before the right sleeve is sewn to the right armhole, a second concavity, wherein an apex of the second bulge is narrower in horizontal width than a deepest portion of the second concavity when the second bulge is in an unstretched state, wherein a horizontal width of the apex of the second bulge is measured from a third straight line connecting an upper end of the right sewn portion with a lower end of the right sewn portion, and wherein a horizontal width of the second concavity is measured from a fourth straight line connecting an upper end of the right armhole to a lower end of the right armhole.
