ABSTRACT:
The hourglass-shaped insert includes a moisture permeable inner layer and a moisture impermeable layer enclosing a layer of moisture absorbent core material. Located between the cut-out leg sections of the insert and interposed between the inner layer and the absorbent material is a uni-directional moisture barrier layer and a wicking layer. The barrier layer is a laminate containing a polymer that expands when wetted and includes a plurality of apertures. Adhesive strips are mounted on the outer layer to releasably secure the insert to an undergarment.
