ABSTRACT:
A protective garment is provided constructed of an improved moisture-transmitting fabric. The fabric includes a woven fabric substrate adhesively secured to a thermoplastic film. The film, which is hydrophilic and non-porous, is preferably made from a co-polyether-ester polymer. The woven fabric substrate is made from synthetic fibers such as polyester. The resulting composite fabric is capable of absorbing moisture through the film and transmitting it to the woven substrate. The fabric is stretchable, breathable, reusable, and washable. In one embodiment, a coating can be applied to the woven fabric substrate for making the composite fabric product water-resistant.
