## Background
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates generally to a taekwondo uniform having a shape corresponding to that of a human body and a structure of preventing the taekwondo uniform from being loosed so that women and men can wear the uniform in common, thereby improving the wearability of the uniform and allowing a user to conveniently use the uniform.
In more particular, the present invention relates to a taekwondo uniform including gap adjusting units provided at a back part and a front part of a flank side corresponding to each other, so that the uniform top is closely fitted to the upper body of a user to improve the wearability of the user.
BACKGROUND ART
In general, uniforms are clothes which users wear for the exercises such as taekwondo or judo. In particular, the uniform for taekwondo is called a taekwondo uniform.
In addition, the taekwondo uniform is divided into a top and bottoms. The top and bottoms include cotton blends or a spandex material having predetermined elasticity. Each of the top and bottoms are made by sewing symmetric front and back parts.
In relation to the taekwondo uniform, a technology for a taekwondo uniform that is conveniently usable is disclosed in Korean Utility Model Registration No. 302788. The taekwondo uniform includes a body part 10 corresponding to the upper body of a user, a neck part 20 having a collar 100 provided at the upper side of the body part 10 and provided around the neck of the user, and a sleeve part 30 extending from both sides of the body part 10 and the neck part 20 to surround the arm of the user as shown in FIG. 1. In this structure, an armpit part 200 formed between the body part 10 and the sleeve part 30 is stitched in the shape of a wide round to the extent that a marginal space is sufficiently ensured, so that the user can conveniently put on the taekwondo uniform and freely move the arms.
A sleeve end portion 300 is provided at the bottom portion thereof with an upward inclined portion so that the sleeve part 30 of the top of the taekwondo uniform is narrowed toward the sleeve end portion 300. Accordingly, when the user moves the arm, the sleeve end portion 300 is prevented from being fluttered.
However, as described above, since the neck part of the top of the taekwondo uniform is deeply recessed, the breasts may be revealed to the outside in the case of women, thereby making the women unnaturally and carefully behave. Accordingly, in the taekwondo exercise or the taekwondo match, the woman may not conveniently behave.
In addition, generally, women wear T-shirts inside the taekwondo uniform and wear the taekwondo uniform on the T-shirts. However, the public opinion that the style of the taekwondo uniform of the women is a sex discrimination style has been increased. Furthermore, when T-shirts are put on inside the taekwondo uniform, the behaviors of the women are restricted, and it is very hot in the summer season to irritate the women, so that the taekwondo exercise or the taekwondo match may not be smoothly performed.
In addition, since the taekwondo uniform is not matched with the body type of a user, the taekwondo uniform may be turned, so that the user may not concentrate on the exercise. In addition, when the user wearing the taekwondo uniform carries out the daily life such as driving before or after the exercise, the user may not store important objects.
Further, the taekwondo uniform is fitted to the body of the user by a uniform band when the user puts on the taekwondo uniform. However, since the taekwondo uniform has no structure of fixing the uniform to the uniform band, the uniform may be out of the uniform band in the taekwondo exercise or the taekwondo match, so that the user may not concentrate on the taekwondo match.

In addition, the cover 521 prevents the toes of an opponent from being seized by the pocket.
In this case, when the pocket 520 is provided at the front surface or the rear surface of the uniform top 500A, and the shock absorbing plate 525 is provided inside the pocket 520, the shock caused by the blow is prevented from being transferred to the user.
In addition, the uniform top 500A has the fitting lines 550 extending to both sides of the lower portion of the uniform top 500A along the bottom surface of the shoulder part 540 (that is, armpit) such that the uniform is fitted to the body of the user. Accordingly, the unnecessary space is minimized, so that the uniform can be prevented from loosed.
In this case, the fitting lines 550 are portions of the uniform top to minimize the width of the uniform top 500A so that the fitting lines 550 are close to the waist of a user to prevent the uniform top from being loosed. The fitting lines are formed as continuous straight lines or curved lines. If the fitting lines 550 are the continuous curved lines, the curved lines have arcs protruding outward toward the lower portion of the uniform top 500A. Accordingly, the fine outer portion of the uniform is provided and the uniform is prevented from being loosed.
The opening 570 formed at the lower portion of the fitting line 550 includes the opening adjusting part 575, such as a zipper, so that the opening degree of the opening 570 can be adjusted. Accordingly, as the opening degree is adjusted, the fitting degree of the uniform can be adjusted.
Further, the shoulder part 540 has the shoulder pattern 545 so that the shoulder part 540 becomes conspicuous. Accordingly, the user is strongly shown.
In addition, the reinforcement-material plate 530 is additionally provided at the shoulder part 540 or the elbow part of the uniform top 500A, or the hip part or the knee part of the uniform bottoms 500B, thereby minimizing the shock caused by the ground surface or the blow.
In this case, the reinforcement-material plate 530 is detachably provided through the hook and loop 535. Accordingly, the user can use the reinforcement-material plate 530 by attaching or detaching the reinforcement-material plate 530 if necessary.
In addition, the patch parts 585 are additionally provided at end portions of the uniform top 500A or the uniform bottoms 500B. Accordingly, the center of the gravity of the uniform is down, so that the uniform can be prevented from being loosed and prevented from being worn due to the friction.
The patch parts 585 may be formed by sewing the end portion of the taekwondo uniform 500 folded several times. In addition, the patch parts 585 may be formed by attaching another cloth to the uniform and sewing the result.
Meanwhile, the uniform bottoms 500B are integrally formed at one side thereof with the shape maintaining part 597 formed through the sewing process to maintain the shape of the uniform bottoms 500B. Accordingly, the bending of the uniform bottoms 500B may be minimized, and the uniform bottoms 500B may be maintained in the predetermined shape.
