Brain Sleep Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Atsushi Hirota; hereinafter "Brain Sleep") has developed "Brain Sleep Wear Recovery" (hereinafter "Wear Recovery"), a general medical device recovery wear that provides ultimate fatigue recovery even with limited sleep time, for Japanese people who are said to have the shortest sleep time in the world. Simply wearing "Wear Recovery" provides four benefits: "fatigue recovery," "blood circulation promotion," "reduction of muscle stiffness and soreness," and and "alleviation of muscle fatigue." It uses a lightweight sweat fabric made of a newly developed material called "MEDIC RECOVERY FIBER," which has a high level of far-infrared radiation function, effectively warming the body, promoting blood circulation, and achieving fatigue recovery. "Wear Recovery" will start pre-orders on Makuake, a crowdfunding service for new products and experiences, from 10:00 AM on Saturday, February 8, 2025. Development Background Fatigue refers to a state where activity capacity decreases due to excessive mental and physical load, or stress. *1In addition, not only excessive exercise but also maintaining the same posture for long periods can cause fatigue. In modern society, it is thought that the time spent in the same posture has increased due to prolonged smartphone use, desk-based work, and teleworking since the COVID-19 pandemic. According to a Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare survey, over 30% of respondents reported spending eight or more hours sitting on weekdays. *2 Sitting in the same posture for long periods can lead to neck and shoulder stiffness due to overuse of specific muscles, which causes fatigue and poor blood circulation. One of the major roles of sleep is to recover from fatigue accumulated during the day. Japanese people's sleep time remains short, and a survey conducted by Brain Sleep found that actual sleep time is 50 minutes shorter than ideal sleep time. *3 It is important for Japanese people to get high-quality sleep even with limited time. We developed "Wear Recovery" as a product that efficiently uses sleep time to recover from fatigue and improve recovery efficiency. The definition of general medical device for recovery wear was newly established by a legal revision in October 2022, *4 and "Wear Recovery" will be released as a general medical device product that meets the new standards *5 set by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare at the same time.*1 Japanese Society of Fatigue Science "Clinical Evaluation Guidelines for Anti-Fatigue"*2 Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare "2013 National Health and Nutrition Survey"*3 Brain Sleep "Sleep Deviation Value Survey® 2024 (n=10,000)"*4 Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare "Handling of clothing, etc. that radiates far-infrared rays"*5 Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare "Regarding the 'Voluntary Standards for Far-Infrared Blood Circulation Promoting Clothing for Home Use' created by the Japan Federation of Medical Devices Associations" Features of "Brain Sleep Wear Recovery" 01 FULL RECOVERYIndependently developed! New material "MEDIC RECOVERY FIBER" promotes blood circulationCeramics derived from natural minerals. We independently developed "MEDIC RECOVERY FIBER" by blending several types of highly pure and carefully selected ceramics and kneading them into fibers at a high concentration. Furthermore, a special yarn shape enhances body heat absorption and far-infrared radiation, effectively warming the body, promoting blood circulation, and achieving a high recovery effect.Surface temperature increased by approximately +2.3°C, effectively warming the bodyWearing it effectively warms the surface temperature, promoting blood circulation.Expected to not only recover from fatigue but also increase relaxationIn today's stressful society, it is important to relax and alleviate stress. In brainwave measurements to assess relaxation, the increase rate of alpha waves, observed in a relaxed state, improved by approximately 21% compared to a control product.02 STRESS FREE & RELAXHigh moisture absorption and release & lightweight sweat fabric for relaxationThe outer surface is made of quick-drying polyester, and the inner surface, which touches the skin, uses an independently developed fabric made of highly moisture-absorbing and releasing natural cotton and rayon. It uses a lighter sweat fabric than conventional sweat fabrics, reducing the burden on the body. *1In addition, its overwhelming moisture absorption and release power eliminates stuffiness. The excellent moisture-absorbing and releasing fabric provides a comfortable, non-stuffy wearing experience.*1 While conventional sweat fabrics are 9-13 oz, "Wear Recovery" achieves a lightness of 7 oz.Comfortable range of motion, designed for sleep, without constrictingThis sleep-specific wear does not hinder necessary tossing and turning during sleep. The armholes are set larger, and constriction from elastic bands and ribs is minimized. It features drop shoulders with ample room in the shoulder area, side vents that provide room at the hem, and ribs that are not constricting, achieving a comfortable range of motion. The pants have a relaxed silhouette with ample room around the ankles.03 PERFECT CLEANQuick-drying and antibacterial to prevent bacterial growth, keeping it clean and comfortable.It is quick-drying and dries quickly even after washing, so you can wear it cleanly even on busy days. In addition, its higher antibacterial effect than conventional antibacterial products prevents bacterial growth and eliminates unpleasant sweat odors.
