Provided is a garment that can be advantageously used by a person of reduced physical capability or potentially of reduced physical capability, the garment easing the movement of joints with the patient's own muscular strength, effectively suppressing a reduction in muscular strength, and maintaining or increasing everyday physical activity. A garment (20a) in which auxiliary bands (2a, 2b) are disposed in a body-covering fabric (21a), wherein the garment is characterized in that: the auxiliary bands (2a, 2b) are arranged in the body-covering fabric (21a) so as to follow the body surface of the wearer from one end side (3a) to the other end side (3b) sandwiching a portion covering the joints of the wearer in the body-covering fabric (21a)； the auxiliary bands (2a, 2b) are secured to the body-covering fabric (21a) such that the auxiliary bands (2a, 2b) and the body-covering fabric (21a) are separated from each other and can expand and contract independently； and the tensile force (T1) worn in the direction (S) connecting the one end side (3a) and the other end side (3b) of the auxiliary bands (2a, 2b) when the garment (20a) is worn is greater than the tensile force (T2) in a direction parallel to the direction (S) of the body-covering fabric (21) that is overlapping the auxiliary bands (2a, 2b) when the garment (20a) is worn.
