Waistless underwear alternative secret pants shield

Abstract

A women's waistless and seamless clothing adherable underwear includes an oval pad made of a soft absorbent material, wherein the pad has double sided strips of adhesive tape with removable peel-off cover strips to attach to the inside crotch area of low slung clothing pants, such as tight pants, leotards or dungaree jeans facing upward to the skin and crotch of the wearer. The material is preferably a soft, non-woven, absorbent material. The underwear is particularly suited for women who wear tight pants, or low waist hip hugger pants, which widely reveal waist bands and seams of panty underwear, or expose underwear waist bands. The underwear is minimally intrusive and is attractive for women who like to wear jeans without underwear but who fear bacterial infection or exposure to clothing dyes or irritating stitching.

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

"The present invention is a pants shield that can be used with any form-fitting attire without the use of underpants or any undergarment. It is invisible from the exterior and adherable only to the upper crotch facing area of an outer pants garment, so it is unencumbered by auxiliary supports. It is made of a thin absorbent pad, which prevents infections that can arise from abrasion or irritation caused by rubbing against clothing materials when underpants are not worn. It absorbs small amounts of moisture and provides extra protection for garments during menstruation periods without the need for an undergarment. The secret pants shield is convenient to change a shield whenever it gets messy and is disposable. It is available in different sizes and colors so as not to contrast with the color of pants which may be shear or slightly transparent."

Problems solved by technology

Some current fashions for young women are such that they render normal underpants or even thongs undesirable, but the alternative of not wearing underwear has its own disadvantages.
