Abstract
In an aspect, a stress mitigation system is provided for mitigating stresses in a wearer of a headgear configured to apply a load on the wearer that is offset from a center of gravity of the wearer's head to apply a first torque in a first direction on the wearer's head. The system includes a track, a shuttle, and a flexible elongate connector. The track is mounted to either the headgear or a bodywear member and extends generally laterally. The shuttle is movable along the track. The connector is configured to connect between the shuttle and the other of the headgear and the bodywear member. The connector applies a second torque on the headgear in a second direction that is generally opposite to the first direction. When the wearer's head pivots, the shuttle is movable laterally along the track to maintain the connector in a substantially vertical orientation.
