Disclosed herein is a grip garment for assisting a user in carrying an item. The garment comprises an article of clothing selected from a long sleeve shirt, a short sleeve shirt and a vest. The article has at least one lateral grip area having a frictional material, such as an elastomer, applied to the lateral grip area to create a frictional surface extending above the outside surface of the article. The frictional surface is in contact with an item carried under the arm of a user to resist the relative motion of the item with respect to the grip area. Additional grip areas are also disclosed.

The grip garment of claim 1, wherein said article is selected from the group consisting of a vest, a short sleeve shirt, and a long sleeve shirt. 3. The grip garment of claim 1, wherein said article has a frictional surface on a right lateral grip area and a left lateral grip area. 4. The grip garment of claim 1, further comprising a reinforcing material, operatively attached to said flexible material, said reinforcing material covering said lateral grip area and extending around at least one of the user's shoulders to distribute a load to the shoulder and resist deformation of said flexible material. 5. The grip garment of claim 1, further comprising a support belt fixedly attached to a lower torso area of said article, said belt including a relatively wide back portion and two relatively narrow straps extending from first and second ends of said back portion, said belt having fastening means for coupling said straps at distal ends. 6. The grip garment of claim 1, wherein said grip area has frictional material applied in a spaced pattern. 7. The grip garment of claim 6, wherein said frictional material is applied in a polka of pattern. 8. A grip garment for assisting a user in carrying an item, said garment comprising: a vest comprising a flexible material having an inside surface and outside surface, said vest having a left side, a right side, a back side and a front side, the sides being generally parallel to the sagittal plane of a torso, a right lateral grip area located on the right side and a left lateral grip area located on the left side, a right serratus anterior area located on the right side and a left serratus anterior area located on the left side, a right external oblique area located on the right side and a left external oblique area located on the left side, wherein each of said lateral grip areas have an overall length that extends from the serratus anterior area to the external oblique area and said lateral grip area extends from said front side to said back side; anda friction material applied to each of said lateral grip areas to form a frictional surface extending above said outside surface of said vest, said frictional surface being in contact with an item carried under the arm of a user to resist the relative motion of the item. 9. The grip garment of claim 8, further comprising selectively detachable right and left arm sections. 10. The grip garment of claim 9, wherein said right arm section has a right brachial grip area and said left arm section has a left brachial grip area, said arm sections have friction material applied to said right brachial grip area and said left brachial grip area to form right and left brachial frictional surfaces for further resisting the relative motion of the item. 11. The grip garment of claim 8, wherein said vest has a friction material applied to an anterior grip area to form an anterior frictional surface; said anterior frictional surface being in contact with an item held against the ventral portion of the torso of a user to resist the relative motion of the item. 12. The grip garment of claim 8, further comprising a support belt fixedly attached to a lower torso area of said vest, said belt including a relatively wide back portion and two relatively narrow straps extending from first and second ends of the back portion, said belt having fastening means for coupling said straps at distal ends.
