AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0011]The inner liner may be attached to the boxer short below the waistband, to the junction of the waistband and the boxer short, or to the waistband itself The preferred method of attachment is sewing the top edge of the inner liner into the boxer short at the base of the elastic waistband. The inner liner is constructed out of a material that offers comfort, flexibility, and gentle effective minimal support to the anatomy of the wearer. Preferably, this liner is a mesh or mesh like material that offers the additional properties of breathability, flexibility, odor repellence, and moisture wicking properties. In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the inner liner is a mesh or mesh like fabric comprised of a Lycra, Spandex, nylon, polyester, or some combination thereof and contains an elasticized leg opening.

[0013]It is important that the support and compression offered by the inner liner is not the same as the compression and support offered by a traditional brief or a boxer brief. The compression must be less than a traditional brief and more like the support of a swimsuit liner. This amount of compression provides the wearer the benefits and comfort of a boxer short with a level of support that a traditional boxer short cannot provide.
