ABSTRACT:
An undergarment that retains urine and other body fluids comprises an upper, or body, portion made of a knitted fabric, and a lower, or crotch, portion made of a woven, non-woven or knitted fabric. The crotch portion is coated with a modified polyester urethane polymer which prevents passage of body fluids, yet allows for some of the body condensate to escape by moisture vapor transmission. Because the crotch material is coated, rather than laminated, the garment body and crotch portion can be assembled without using special sewing needles, methods or speeds.
