Anti-chafe gusset crotch for pants

Abstract

The current invention teaches a novel, simple, and cost effective preventative solution to the irritating outcome experienced when the friction of the inner thighs rubbing together results in a condition commonly known as chafing. This condition is commonly experienced by athletes, obese people, and people with specific physiological conditions. While there are preventative measures to hinder chafing on the market, none address the issue with a simple, cost effective, and comfortable solution. The current invention is a panel embodied by two-plies of a lightweight, highly breathable, stretchable fabric with a slick surface sewn only on the periphery to create a seamless gusset throughout the crotch of a garment such as a short that creates a near friction free environment and keeps the skin dry thus preventing chafing.

1 . A seamless gusset crotch that eliminates the seams in the crotch area of a pant or pant-like garment (discussed herein as pant or short), said crotch is comprised of preferably a dual layer of highly breathable stretchable smooth fabric providing a near friction free environment when friction is applied specifically on the inner thighs as in the condition where the wearer is engaged in a dynamic forward or backward movement involving the wearer's lower limbs.  
   
   
       2 . The gusset of  claim 1  comprising of a multi (preferably 2) plies fabric.  
   
   
       3 . The fabric according to  claim 2  possesses an extremely smooth surface.  
   
   
       4 . The smooth surface of  claim 3  smoothly glides on itself when friction is applied  
   
   
       5 . The fabric of  claim 3  is highly breathable  
   
   
       6 . The fabric of  claim 3  has a degree of stretch either mechanical, 1-way or 2-way.  
   
   
       7 . The fabric of  claim 3  is sewn into the garment only at the peripheral edges of a pant, allowing  claim 4  to be fully realized.  
   
   
       8 . The gusset of  claim 2  covers the relevant area beginning just above the knee vertically to the top of the inseam.  
   
   
       9 . The gusset of  claim 2  wholly covers the relevant area on the inner thigh from anterior to posterior.
