Functional fabrics, protective garments made therefrom, and methods of making

This invention describes a washable undergarment designed to manage moisture. It works by combining an inner fabric layer that absorbs moisture with an outer layer that repels it, keeping the wearer dry. The claims specifically focus on an undergarment with a leg cuff made from the moisture-repellent fabric, and can include non-wicking thread.

Why it matters: Since 2020, advancements in textile science have likely improved the performance, durability, or cost-effectiveness of specialized moisture-managing fabrics and non-wicking threads. This could make the production of such a reusable garment more viable or higher performing now.
