Abstract

This study designed four types with a different halter-neck shoulder straps of an athleisure brassiere for women in their 20-40s as well as analyzed the shoulder strap pressure, shoulder strap position, subjective sensation, and design preference when wearing them. The design basis was to reduce the pressure at the back of the neck area, to allow the shoulder strap to pass down the neck as far as possible, and to send the anatomically sensitive side neck out as far as possible. As a result, H, which had the best subjective sensation and design preference, had the shoulder strap positioned more towards the shoulder point; in addition, the back of the neck did not pass. It was also found that the shoulder strap pressure near the neck was small. However, E, with the lowest subjective sensation, had the highest shoulder strap pressure and was placed up the neck. This confirmed that the position and pressure of the shoulder strap are variable when influencing the subjective sensation.
