Abstract
The present invention is directed to a female undergarment having a panty portion and includes a novel crotch covering portion of two superimposed faces. Both faces are of non-thermoplastic moisture absorbent fibers, and each face has a network of openings thereon in substantially uniform array. The face in proximity to the body has a lesser degree of openess than the outer face and is slightly spaced apart from the body of the wearer during body dynamics. The two faces preferably constitute two separate layers of material. Alternatively, they may be integrally knit together as by a double knit construction.
