Abstract

A moisture control garment formed of a material that has moisture wicking (hydrophobic) properties joined to another material that has moisture absorbing (hydrophilic) properties. In certain embodiments, the moisture wicking and moisture absorbing materials are of similar thickness, have the same estimated shrinkage percentage, and the fibers of such materials are positioned in the same direction.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
The invention claimed is: 
     
         1 . A moisture control garment comprising:
 a first layer, positioned closest to a wearer, comprising moisture wicking material; and   a second layer, joined to the first layer, comprising moisture absorbing material.   
     
     
         2 . The moisture control garment of  claim 1 , wherein the first layer comprises the body of the garment and the second layer comprises one or more patches of fabric overlying said first layer. 
     
     
         3 . The moisture control garment of  claim 1 , wherein the first layer comprises 100% polyester. 
     
     
         4 . The moisture control garment of  claim 1 , wherein the first layer comprises between 80% and 99% polyester and 1% to 20% spandex. 
     
     
         5 . The moisture control garment of  claim 1 , wherein the second layer comprises 100% polyester. 
     
     
         6 . The moisture control garment of  claim 1 , wherein the second layer comprises 100% cotton. 
     
     
         7 . The moisture control garment of  claim 1 , wherein the second layer comprises between 80% and 99% cotton and 1% to 20% polyester. 
     
     
         8 . The moisture control garment of  claim 1 , wherein the second layer comprises between 80% and 99% cotton and 1% to 20% nylon. 
     
     
         9 . The moisture control garment of  claim 1 , wherein the second layer comprises between 80% and 99% polyester and 1% to 20% polyamide. 
     
     
         10 . The moisture control garment of  claim 1 , wherein the second layer comprises between 80% and 99% nylon and 1% to 20% polyamide. 
     
     
         11 . The moisture control garment of  claim 1 , treated for anti-microbial anti-fungal properties. 
     
     
         12 . The moisture control garment of  claim 1 , treated for waterproofing or water resistance. 
     
     
         13 . The moisture control garment of  claim 1 , wherein the first layer and the second layer are mechanically joined to each other. 
     
     
         14 . The moisture control garment of  claim 1 , wherein the first layer and the second layer are joined at their seams. 
     
     
         15 . The moisture control garment of  claim 1 , wherein the first layer and the second layer are joined to each other by adhesive bonding. 
     
     
         16 . The moisture control garment of  claim 1 , wherein the first layer and the second layer are joined to each other by lamination. 
     
     
         17 . The moisture control garment of  claim 1 , wherein the first layer and the second layer are joined to each other by sonic bonding. 
     
     
         18 . The moisture control garment of  claim 1 , wherein the first layer and the second layer have a difference in thickness of less than 0.25 inches. 
     
     
         19 . The moisture control garment of  claim 1 , wherein the fibers in the first layer and the second layer are positioned in the same direction. 
     
     
         20 . The moisture control garment of  claim 1 , wherein the first layer and the second layer have the same estimated shrinkage percentage.
