DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0008] 1 to 7, shorts according to one embodiment of the present invention will be described.

[0009] The configuration of the shorts of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. As shown in FIGS. 1 to 5, the shorts have a waist section 10, a shorts main body section 20, and a crotch section 30.

[0010] The waist portion 10 is circular and forms the upper edge of the shorts. The waist portion 10 has a non-elasticated portion 12 and an elasticated portion 14.

[0011] The non-stretchable portion 12 extends in the circumferential direction of the waist portion 10, forms the center of the front portion of the waist portion 10, and is made of silk fabric.

[0012] The stretchable portion 14 extends in the circumferential direction of the waist portion 10 and forms one side end of the front portion of the waist portion 10, the back portion, and the other side end of the front portion. The stretchable portion 14 is stretchable and has a shape similar to a scrunchie. That is, the stretchable portion 14 is formed by a stretchable member 16 and an exterior member 18. The stretchable member 16 and the exterior member 18 extend in the circumferential direction of the waist portion 10. The stretchable member 16 is formed from a rubber material, which is a stretchable material, and the exterior member 18 is formed from a silk fabric. The total length of the exterior member 18 is longer than the total length of the stretchable member 16, and by inserting the stretchable member 16 into the exterior member 18, numerous pleats are formed on the surface of the exterior member 18.

[0013] The shorts body 20 has a front body 22, a back body 24, and a crotch 26, and is made of silk fabric.

[0014] The front body portion 22 forms the front portion of the shorts. The upper edge portion of the front body portion 22 extends in the circumferential direction of the waist portion 10 and is integrally connected to the lower edge portion of the non-elastic portion 12 that forms the center portion of the front portion of the waist portion 10. The front body portion 22 has a band-like shape that gradually decreases in width from top to bottom.

[0015] The back body section 24 forms the back surface of the shorts. The upper edge of the back body section 24 extends circumferentially around the waist section 10 and is integrally connected to the lower edge of the back surface of the elasticized section 14, which forms the back surface of the waist section 10. The upper edge of the back body section 24 extends along substantially the entire length of the back surface of the waist section 10, and has a generally semi-elliptical shape with its top facing downward and cut away. The semi-elliptical shape includes a semicircular shape, a vertically elongated elliptical shape that is long in the up-down direction, and a horizontally elongated elliptical shape that is long in the left-right direction. In this embodiment, the back body section 24 has a slightly horizontally elongated semi-elliptical shape with the upper edge of the back body section 24 as its major axis.

[0016] The crotch section 26 connects the lower end portion of the front body section 22 and the lower end portion of the back body section 24.

[0017] The crotch section 30 is overlapped and joined to the back surface of the shorts main body 20. The crotch section 30 is disposed over approximately one-third of the lower portion of the back surface of the front body 22 in the vertical direction (see Figs. 4 and 5), is disposed over the entire back surface of the crotch section 26, and is disposed over approximately one-fifth of the lower end portion of the back surface of the back body 24 in the vertical direction (see Figs. 4 and 2), so that most of the back surface of the back body 24 is exposed and not covered by the crotch section 30. The crotch section 30 is made of cotton fabric.

[0018] The hem of the shorts is formed by the hem of the front body 22, crotch 26, and back body 24 of the shorts main body 20, as well as the hem of the crotch 30. The front body 22, crotch 26, and back body 24 of the shorts main body 20 are made of silk fabric, while the crotch 30 is made of cotton fabric. Silk fabric and cotton fabric are non-stretchable materials with almost no stretch. Therefore, the hem of the shorts is made of a non-stretchable material.

[0019] The back body section 24 is made of silk fabric. Silk fabric generally has a luxurious feel due to its unique luster, a fine, smooth texture that feels comfortable against the skin, and an excellent fit. Its excellent breathability and heat retention make it cool in the hot summer and warm in the cold winter, and it resists wrinkling and deformation even after washing. Furthermore, silk fabric also provides skin care benefits. There are various reasons why silk fabric provides skin care benefits, but to give a few examples, the amino acids that make up silk are largely identical to those that make up human skin. Therefore, silk fabric is gentle on the skin and less irritating. Furthermore, silk's excellent moisturizing properties, combined with its excellent fit to the skin, prevent skin dryness and maintain skin moisture. Furthermore, silk's ultraviolet absorption properties prevent skin damage caused by sunburn.

[0020] In this application, "silk fabric" does not necessarily mean 100% silk, but also includes cases where other materials or components are included. However, the above-mentioned functions of silk fabric improve as the purity of the silk in the silk fabric increases, and are particularly pronounced when it is 100% silk. In this embodiment, all silk fabrics used are 100% silk.

[0021] With reference to Figs. 6 and 7, the state in which the shorts of this embodiment are worn will be described. As shown in Figures 6 and 7, when a wearer puts on the shorts, the waist portion 10 is held around the wearer's waist, and the front body portion 22, crotch portion 26, and back body portion 24 cover the wearer's lower abdomen, groin, and buttocks, respectively. The waist portion 10 is held around the wearer's waist by the stretch of the elastic member 16, and the numerous pleats of the exterior member 18 are interposed between the elastic member 16 and the wearer's waist. Furthermore, the wearer is not constricted by the bottom hem of the shorts, and yet the back body portion 24 tightly encases the wearer's entire buttocks, widely covering the entire buttocks, and the skin care effects of the silk fabric forming the back body portion 24 are applied to the entire buttocks.

[0022] The following describes the effects of the shorts of this embodiment. The shorts of this embodiment have a hem made of a non-stretch material that does not constrict the wearer, so when worn, the hem of the shorts does not constrict the wearer's groin, preventing obstruction of blood flow in the blood vessels and lymph flow in the lymphatic vessels in the groin, thereby improving the wearer's health.

[0023] As mentioned above, the hem of the shorts is made of a non-stretch material, so the hem does not hold the shorts in place. Therefore, with conventional shorts, especially those made of silk fabric, some of the fabric in the back body portion may be wasted and loose around the wearer's buttocks, causing the back body portion to deform or slip relative to the wearer's buttocks. For example, when the wearer sits down, the shorts may sit on their bare skin rather than through the shorts. In contrast, the back body portion 24 of this embodiment has an upper edge that extends along substantially the entire length of the back of the waist portion 10 and has a slightly horizontally elongated, approximately semi-elliptical shape with its upper edge as its major axis, pointing downward, and notched at the top. As a result, when the shorts are worn, the back body portion 24 tightly envelops the wearer's entire buttocks, preventing the back body portion 24 from deforming or slipping relative to the wearer's buttocks, improving the comfort of the shorts. Furthermore, the entire back body section 24 is made of silk fabric, which has a skin care effect. As a result, the back body section 24 broadly covers the entire buttocks of the wearer, and the skin care effect of the silk fabric can be applied to the entire buttocks of the wearer, achieving smooth, silky, and beautiful skin throughout the buttocks, improving the firmness and texture of the skin throughout the buttocks, and promoting the beauty of the wearer. In particular, in this embodiment, the silk fabric is 100% silk, and therefore exhibits a remarkable beauty-promoting effect that exceeds skin care such as scrubbing and applying lotion.

[0024] Furthermore, the stretchable portion 14 of the waist portion 10 has a configuration similar to that of a so-called scrunchie. That is, in the stretchable portion 14 of the waist portion 10, the stretchable member 16 and the exterior member 18 extend in the circumferential direction of the waist portion 10, the stretchable member 16 is made of a rubber material which is a stretchable material, the exterior member 18 is made of silk fabric, the total length of the exterior member 18 is longer than the total length of the stretchable member 16, and by inserting the stretchable member 16 into the exterior member 18, numerous pleats are formed on the surface of the exterior member 18. As a result, when the shorts are worn, the waist portion 10 is held to the waist of the wearer by the stretch of the stretchable member 16, but since the numerous pleats of the exterior member 18 are interposed between the stretchable member 16 and the waist of the wearer, the tightness of the stretchable portion 14 around the waist of the wearer is alleviated, and the stretchable portion 14 feels comfortable against the skin.

[0025] Additionally, the shorts are made of silk fabric for the exterior member 18 of the non-elasticated portion 12 and elasticated portion 14 of the waist portion 10, as well as the front body portion 22, crotch portion 26, and back body portion 24 of the shorts main body portion 20. This makes the shorts less likely to wrinkle or lose their shape when washed, especially compared to gauze fabrics, and also prevents the elasticated portion 14 of the waist portion 10 from twisting within the exterior member 18.

[0026] The characteristic disclosures of this application can be summarized as follows:

[0027] The first disclosed matter is shorts to be worn by a wearer, comprising: a waist portion that forms the upper edge of the shorts, is circular, and is held around the waist of the wearer; a front body portion that forms the front portion of the shorts, has an upper edge connected to the front portion of the waist portion, and covers the wearer's lower abdomen; a back body portion that forms the back portion of the shorts, has an upper edge connected to the back portion of the waist portion, and covers the wearer's buttocks; and a crotch portion that connects the lower end portion of the front body portion to the lower end portion of the back body portion and covers the wearer's crotch, the back body portion being made of silk fabric, and the upper edge portion of the back body portion having a generally semi-elliptical shape that faces downward and has a notched top, extending along substantially the entire length of the back portion of the waist portion.

[0028] In the disclosed matter, when the shorts are worn, the back body portion tightly encases the entire buttocks of the wearer, preventing the back body portion from deforming or shifting relative to the buttocks, making the shorts comfortable to wear. Furthermore, the back body portion widely covers the entire buttocks of the wearer, and the skin care effect of the silk fabric can be applied to the entire buttocks of the wearer, realizing beautiful skin all over the buttocks and improving the texture, thereby promoting the beauty of the wearer.

[0029] The second disclosed matter is the shorts of the first disclosed matter, in which the front body portion, the crotch portion, and the hem portion of the back body portion are formed from a non-stretchable material.

[0030] In the present disclosure, when the shorts are worn, the wearer's groin area is prevented from being constricted, and obstruction of blood flow in the blood vessels and lymph flow in the lymphatic vessels in the groin area is prevented, thereby improving the wearer's health.

[0031] The third disclosure relates to the shorts of the first or second disclosure, wherein the waist portion has an elastic member and an outer member, the elastic member extends circumferentially around the waist portion and is made of an elastic material, the outer member extends circumferentially around the waist portion, is tubular, has a total length longer than the total length of the elastic member, and the elastic member is inserted to form a pleated shape on the surface portion.

[0032] In the present disclosure, when the shorts are worn, the waist portion is held to the wearer's waist by the stretch of the elastic member, but the pleated shape of the outer member is interposed between the elastic member and the wearer's waist, so the feeling of tightness of the waist portion on the wearer's waist is alleviated, and the waist portion feels more comfortable against the skin.

[0033] A fourth disclosed item is the shorts according to the third disclosed item, in which the exterior member of the waist portion, the front body portion, and the crotch portion are made of silk fabric.

[0034] In the present disclosure, even when the shorts are washed, they are less likely to wrinkle or lose their shape, and the elastic member in the elastic waist section is prevented from twisting within the outer member.

[0035] A fifth disclosed item is the shorts of any one of the first to fourth disclosed items, wherein the silk fabric is 100% silk.

[0036] In the present disclosure, the skin care effect of the silk fabric is significantly exhibited, making it possible to sufficiently promote the beauty of the wearer. [Explanation of symbols]
