Design concept 5 (Fig. 11) shows track pant (option 1) with broad elastic waistband. The back rise is made to rise higher than a usual track pant keeping in mind
the needs of the wheelchair user tennis player. The out seams on both the sides have
mesh panels that can be zipped with the help of zipper running from waistband to the
bottom hem. It has extra space to accommodate calipers if required. Mesh panels have
been added even on the inseam at the front and back to prevent excessive sweating.
Track pant (Option 2, Fig. 12) has wider waistband and has been designed to give
extra comfort and to prevent slippage during the match. Open knit structures have
been added on the abdomen, inseam and outseam areas for ventilation. Drawcord
added inside the waistband which is not visible from outside. Back rise is higher than
usual. Track pant (Option 3, Fig. 12) has flat waist band with mesh panels added on
the thigh and back near the popliteal and on inseam and outseam areas. Open knit
