A daily-use garment that is substantially normal in appearance includes a head portion corresponding to a head region of a person, and a body portion corresponding to a torso of the person. The head region is configured to cover the head region of the person with a first flexible chamber positioned in the head portion. A second flexible chamber is positioned in the body portion. A fluid supply device of the daily-use garment includes a container configured to hold a fluid under pressure, a first activation member configured to open the container, and one of a conduit and a nozzle that supplies the fluid from the container. The fluid supply device opens the container and supplies the fluid to at least one of the first flexible chamber and the second flexible chamber, and the daily-use garment is converted from a first state to a second state.
