and a reinforcement pad 20 of the shape and thickness of well - developed pectoralis major attached to a portion corresponding thereto between inner and outer skins 11a , 11b . the reinforcement pad 20 is made up with a pair of laterally symmetric pectoralis major reinforcing pads 21a , 21b . as shown in fig3 a recess 27 becoming shallower upwardly is formed in the inner portion of the pads . the outer portion becomes thinner upwardly , and the central portion is preferably separated in the manufacturing process . the reinforcement pad 20 has a pad extending portion 22 of a predetermined shape and thickness integrally added to pectoralis major reinforcing pad 21a so that it has a natural shape of muscle provided from the pectoralis major to the shoulders . the reinforcement pad 20 may be buried between inner and outer layers 11a , 11b of front panel 11 to be integrally formed therewith , as shown in fig3 or may have an attaching / detaching connector 28 such as a snap button so that the pad is selectively detached or attached on the inner sides and top of front panel 11 , as in fig6 so as to prevent the pad from being damaged during washing . in the latter case , front and back panels 11 and 12 each may be formed of a single outer layer 11b . as in fig7 back panel 12 of athletic shirt 10 may add a pair of trapezius reinforcing pads 23a , 23b covering the portion corresponding to the trapezius so that the wearer &# 39 ; s back , the trapezius on both upper sides of his back , is three - dimesionally protruded . turning to fig4 and 5 , the second embodiment of the present invention shows a tank top 10a shaped approximately as the upper part of an exposure - moderate bikini . the tank top consists of front and back panels 13 , 14 of a length covering only the upper portion of the breasts in the upper part of body , and a reinforcement pad 20 encased between inner and outer skins 13a , 13b at a position corresponding to the pectoralis major in the inner portion of front panel 13 . like the first embodiment , the reinforcement pad 20 has a pair of pectoralis major reinforcing pads 21a , 21b , and a pair of pad extending portions 22a , 22b integrally extending from the top end of pectoralis major reinforcing pads 21a , 21b to the shoulders . the pad 20 of tank top 10a may be detachably secured by attaching / detaching connector 28 , and back panel 14 may employ a pair of trapezius reinforcing pads 23a , 23b constructed as in fig7 . below the front and back panels 13 , 14 may be provided a closely tightening portion 25 of a flexible material extending downward by a predetermined length to embrace and press the belly or waist . referring to fig6 and 7 , the third embodiment of the present invention is a half - length t - shirt . half - length t - shirt 10b comprises front and back panels 15 , 16 having a head inserting hole , a pair of shoulder portions 17a , 17b having an arm inserting hole , and a reinforcement pad 20a of a predetermined shape and thickness in a natural muscle shape integrally extending from the pectoralis major to the deltoid of the shoulders . the reinforcement pad 20a is equipped with a pair of pectoralis major reinforcing pads 21a , 21b of a predetermined shape and thickness of well - developed pectoralis major attached between the inner and outer layers 11a , 11b at the portion corresponding to the pectoralis major , a pair of pad extending portions 22a , 22b integrally extending from the top of pectoralis major reinforcing pads 21a , 21b to the shoulders , and deltoid reinforcing pads 24a , 24b mutually connected and extending from pad extending portions 22a , 22b to the shoulders so that the deltoid muscle on the shoulders looks well - developed . the third embodiment of reinforcement pad 20a of a predetermined shape and thickness exhibits a shape of natural muscle , integrally extending from the pectoralis major portion to the shoulder deltoid portion . here , t - shirt 10b may add a trapezius reinforcing pad 23 , in a similar structure to that of the first and second embodiments , connected to deltoid reinforcing pad 24 on the inner portion of the back panel 16 so that the trapezius on both sides of the upper back looks three - dimensional . the reinforcement pads 20a , 23 are preferably made of nonwoven or elastic synthetic resin which is a flexible , soft , cushiony shape memory material , always maintaining its shape . a reinforcement pad of a general nonwoven fabric , if fixedly buried in the front and back panels , needs to be replaced due to the rapidly decreasing restoration and durability through many times of washing . therefore , in consideration of the disadvantage , the present invention uses a reinforcement pad made through a special manufacturing procedure as in fig8 in order to greatly elongate its durability . this pad employs polyester yarn as nonwoven fabric . first of all , curling is performed in step si , as pre - treatment process prior to carding polyester yarn 30 , for the purpose of increasing elasticity , restoration and durability . during carding by means of carding machine 31 , needle punching is performed for better restoration , and an adhesive binder is sprayed and coated in step s2 for better molding ability in further molding procedure . subsequently , carded nonwoven fabric 32 is made , in step s3 , sequentially into about four nonwoven pieces 34a - 34d of a conic form , using several presses 33 having a conic reservoir cavity thereinside , as in fig8 . the fabric &# 39 ; s molding ability is enhanced by rendering the center thick but the edges thin at a predetermined rate . in step s4 , the conic processed nonwoven pieces 34a - 34d are piled , and in step s5 , piled conic nonwoven fabric 37 is compressively molded at a temperature between 170 and 180 ° c . with upper and lower molds 35 , 36 having a cavity receiving reinforcement pad 20 shown in fig2 so that the nonwoven fabric pieces are mutually coupled as the binder melts , yielding reinforcement pad 20 of an intended shape as in fig2 . the reinforcement pad obtained through the processes goes through needle punching so that it has an excellent restoration ability to maintain its shape even after washing while attached to the product . the pectoralis major , deltoid , and trapezius reinforcing pads 21a , 21b , 24a , 24b , 23a , 23b attached on the inner surface of the first , second and third embodiments of front and back panels 11 - 16 are preferably coated of compression preventive material of silicon of a predetermined thickness along sewing line 26 placed on the inner surface of front and back panels 11 - 16 so that they come into tight contact with the body when put on , at an appropriate position without movement . the attaching / detaching connector 26 may be formed with one of ordinary button , snap button , hook and magic tape . the male upper garment constructured as above is characterized as follows when put on . when the first , second or third embodiment of athletic shirt 10 , tank top 10a , or t - shirt 10b is worn , pectoralis major , deltoid , and trapezius reinforcing pads 21 , 23 , 24 , and pad extending portion 22 are appropriately located on the surface of the pectoralis major on the breasts , the deltoid on the shoulders , and the trapezius on the upper back , and are in tight contact therewith by means of a compression preventive material coated along the sewing line on the inner surface of front and back panels 11 - 16 . with those pads 21 - 24 , a weak upper part of body looks three - dimensional and muscular . their durability which may decrease due to washing can be elongated with attaching / detaching connector 28 . the detachable pad is advantageous in buying and wearing it according to the wearer &# 39 ; s physical structure or taste . meanwhile , the present invention may be applied to other clothes , for instance , to various female uppergarments , not limited to the above embodiments of male upper garments . in this case , women of a weak upper part do not need to wear a brassiere that tightens their body . those embodiments of the present invention may be applied also to male or female undergarments , not limited to outer garments . in case of wearing an outer garment such as jacket , sweater or t - shirt with the undergarment of the present invention being put on , the same effects are yielded . as described above , in the present invention , various reinforcement pads are fixed or detachably attached on the inner surface of the upper garment along the shape of pectoralis major , deltoid or trapezius muscles so that men of weak breasts , especially , the upper part , look muscular with well - developed muscles . therefore , they can wear tight clothes not reluctantly within a broad range of choice , while appropriately expressing their own individuality along the trend of fashion , as well as eliminating the sense of inferiority against their own physical shape but providing self - confidence . it will be apparent to the reader that the foregoing description of the invention has been presented for purposes of illustration and description and for providing an understanding of the invention and that many changes and modifications can be made without departing from the scope of the invention . it is therefore intended that the scope of the invention be indicated by the appended claims rather than by the foregoing description ; and all changes which come within the meaning and range of equivalency of the claims are therefore intended to be embraced therein .
