Abstract
Described herein are methods and techniques for sewing natural rubber latex and similar materials, and forming garments and articles from same, via novel stitching methods that enable new ways to manipulate latex and similar materials in ways heretofore considered impossible in clothing and related industries.
Claims17
A method for sewing latex fabric comprising:
- placing a first piece of latex between a first substrate and a second substrate to form a multi-layer protective support construct with the first piece of latex between the first substrate and the second substrate;
- stitching through the first substrate, the second substrate, and the first piece of latex to form at least one stich in the latex;
- removing the first substrate and second substrate to reveal the at least one stitch;
- and
- wherein no adhesive is used.

A garment comprising stitched latex formed by:
- forming a clothing pattern, comprising at least one first pattern block, from latex;
- placing the first pattern block of latex between a first substrate and a second substrate to form a multi-layer protective support construct with the first pattern block of latex between the first substrate and the second substrate;
- stitching through the first substrate, the second substrate, and the first pattern block of latex to form at least one stich in the latex;
- removing the first substrate and second substrate to reveal the at least one stitch;
- and
- wherein no adhesive is used.
