 The origin of the jumpsuit, or at least the origin of the word jumpsuit, was a suit made for skydiving. When you jump out of a plane, it is practical to have a one-piece suit, so that the air does not take too much hold in the clothes and part them. They are also used in aviation and space flight. Jumpsuits are practical for use in zero gravity because they don't float around like other garments but stay close to the body.
Jumpsuits are used as an easy way of dressing children, especially in the winter time. In countries with cold winters, small children almost always wear snowsuits in the winter. Jumpsuits are also often seen in science fiction, because they are seen as futuristic clothing. |
