Undergarment
An undergarment is provided that favorably adheres to the skin and has superior shape retention. The undergarment according to the present invention is an undergarment that is comprised of a fabric having a woven structure, a knitted structure or a non-woven fabric structure, wherein the fabric contains a filament yarn A having a filament diameter of 10 to 1000 nm and a filament yarn B having a filament diameter greater than 1000 nm, and the filament yarn A is exposed on the side that contacts the skin.
1. An undergarment comprising a fabric having a woven structure, a knitted structure or a non-woven fabric structure, wherein the fabric contains a filament yarn A having a filament diameter of 10 to 1000 nm and a filament yarn B having a filament diameter greater than 1000 nm, and the filament yarn A is exposed on the side that contacts the skin, wherein the frictional resistance value of the side that contacts the skin is 150 gr or more as determined according to the measurement method described below:
the frictional resistance value is the resistance value (gr) determined by placing a piece of silicone rubber on a horizontal table, arranging a head having a bottom surface area of 5 cm×8 cm, a height of 3 cm and a weight of 100 gr (0.98 N) on which a sample is affixed to the entire bottom surface thereof on the silicone rubber, and pulling the head in the horizontal direction at a rate of 100 mm/min with a tensile tester followed by determining the resistance value (gr) at that time.
2. The undergarment according to claim 1 , wherein the exposed filament yarn A accounts for 50% or more of the surface area of the side that contacts the skin.
3. The undergarment according to claim 2 , wherein only the filament yarn A is exposed on the side that contacts the skin.
4. The undergarment according to claim 1 , wherein the number of filaments of the filament yarn A is 500 or more.
5. The undergarment according to claim 1 , wherein the number of filaments of the filament yarn B is within the range of 1 to 300.
6. The undergarment according to claim 1 , wherein the fabric is a knitted fabric obtained by interlocking the filament yarn A and the filament yarn B.
7. The undergarment according to claim 1 , wherein the filament yarn A is a polyester fiber.
8. The undergarment according to claim 1 , wherein the filament yarn B is an elastic fiber.
9. The undergarment according to claim 1 , wherein the weight ratio of the filament yarn A to the filament yarn B is within the range of 95:5 to 5:95.
10. The undergarment according to claim 1 , wherein the undergarment is any undergarment selected from the group consisting of brassieres, shorts, lingerie, girdles, undershirts, men's underpants and women's underpants.
