ABSTRACT:
A spunlaced fabric composed of random-arrayed polyester fibers is formed into a single-layer or double-layer fabric arrangement which is used to make an undergarment. The undergarment is worn by an individual and fits snugly about a selected portion of the body. For example, the undergarment could be designed to fit around the torso of the body from beneath the armpits to the hips. A rigid or semirigid outergarment, such as an orthepedic brace, is worn about the same body area, and over the undergarment, to correct a body-growth deficiency such as curvature of the spine. Relatively large beads of perspiration moisture generated beneath the brace by the individual wearing the brace are absorbed into the undergarment. The random-arrayed nature of the fibers of the fabric causes the relatively large beads of perspiration to form into mirco-droplets which migrate over the fibers and facilitate removal of the bulk of the moisture from beneath the brace.
