Claims (25)

1. Garment combined with an inflatable member,

the garment comprising a portion suitable for being combined with said inflatable member for protecting a user, wherein said portion of the garment includes a covering surface suitable for forming a covering for said inflatable member, said covering surface comprising at least one insert made of elastic material,

the inflatable member being deflatable following inflation or when a protective action on the part of the inflatable member itself is no longer required, said inflatable member including

a first mesh and a second mesh,

a first member for covering the first mesh and a second member for covering the second mesh, the first member and the second member being connected along respective perimetral edges to form an internal chamber of the inflatable member, and

a plurality of tie members having opposite ends which are fixed respectively to said first mesh and to said second mesh,

wherein the insert is configured to return in an undeformed or only partially undeformed condition when the inflatable member returns in the deflated condition, and the insert is configured to bring the covering surface back into an initial condition and help a deflating action of the inflatable member to return into the deflated condition.

2. The garment combined with the inflatable member of claim 1 , wherein the insert occupies a perimetral zone of the covering surface and therefore a perimetral zone of the inflatable member, such that the insert surrounds at least partially the inflatable member.

3. The garment combined with the inflatable member of claim 1 , further comprising a deflation valve, wherein the deflation valve is configured to be in a closed condition when the inflatable member is in an inflated condition and the deflation valve is configured to be in an open condition to allow deflation of the inflatable member.

4. The garment combined with the inflatable member of claim 1 , wherein the insert is a strip-shaped insert or band-like-shaped insert.

5. The garment combined with the inflatable member of claim 1 , said garment being a motorcyclist's riding suit.

6. The garment combined with the inflatable member of claim 1 , said garment being a motorcyclist's jacket.

7. The garment combined with the inflatable member of claim 1 , wherein said first member and said second member are each a wall or a sheet covering the first mesh and the second mesh respectively.

8. Garment combined with a protection device,

the garment comprising a pocket made at least partly of elastic material and suitable for being combined with said protection device,

said protection device comprising an inflatable member inside which an internal chamber is defined and a plurality of tie members which are distributed inside the internal chamber and stably connected to respective surface portions of said inflatable member, the inflatable member being deflatable following inflation or when a protective action on the part of the inflatable member itself is no longer required, wherein said inflatable member includes

a first mesh and a second mesh,

a first member for covering the first mesh and a second member for covering the second mesh, the first member and the second member being connected along respective perimetral edges to form an internal chamber of the inflatable member, and

the plurality of tie members having opposite ends which are fixed respectively to said first mesh and to said second mesh,

wherein the elastic material is configured to bring a covering surface of the pocket back into an initial condition and help a deflating action of the inflatable member to return into the deflated condition.

9. The garment combined with the protection device of claim 8 , wherein the pocket has a side wall which is made of elastic material and which extends along the perimeter of the protection device.

10. The garment combined with the protection device of claim 8 , wherein the insert is a strip-shaped insert or band-like-shaped insert.

11. The garment combined with the protection device of claim 8 , said garment being a motorcyclist's riding suit.

12. The garment combined with the protection device of claim 8 , said garment being a motorcyclist's jacket.
