An article of clothing can be used to reduce or prevent the occurrence of prolonged skin-on-skin contact, rashes, irritation, intertrigo, infections, discomfort, or chaffing. Such an article of clothing has a moisture management material made up of at least an outer layer, an inner layer, and a tab. The moisture management material is attached to a portion of the article of clothing via a tab of the moisture management material. The moisture management material may be of various shapes and sizes and preferably fits within a prescribed area of the article of clothing. The moisture management material may be variably positioned within the article of clothing to provide differing results such as additional support and/or moisture absorbing or moisture moving where necessary. Preferably the article of clothing is a brassiere but may be a shirt, diaper, pants, socks, panties, or other undergarments.

A garment for absorbing fluid discharge in a male subject includes an open-topped pouch to receive the penis of the subject and an absorbent material lining at least a portion of the pouch. A strap attached to an upper edge of the front portion of the pouch is designed to encircle the waist of the subject and secure the pouch. The pouch is free to move with the penis through a wide range of positions. A system for absorbing fluid discharge in a male subject can include the garment and an absorbent pad that can be inserted into the pouch.

A permanently closed containment pant including a chassis and a sling that is positioned within the chassis and is joined to the front waist region and the back waist region is disclosed. The sling is attached to the chassis with an attachment mechanism to secure the sling to the chassis. The attachment mechanism may comprise a bonded attachment and an attachment elastic material at a middle portion of the sling to the chassis at the crotch region; a bond attachment adjacent the pouch in a transition material; or elastics extending from the leg openings and attaching to the sling in the crotch region.

An incontinence guard, or diaper, is provided which comprises a girdle portion and a waste containment portion. The girdle comprises at least one flap having means to releasably secure itself to an outward-facing side of the waste containment portion and is moreover elastic so as to forcibly secure the waste containment portion around a wearer's waist. In use, a soiled waste containment portion may simply be detached from the girdle and replaced with a clean waste containment portion while the girdle remains secured around the wearer's waist. Alternatively, only a portion of the waste containment portion may be detatched from the girdle to permit changing of the soiled absorbent layer alone. This avoids a need to place the wearer in a lying position, or otherwise require the wearer to meaningfully cooperate, such as by responsively articulating from his hips and knees, when a caregiver undertakes to replace soiled incontinence guards.

The current invention consists of women's pants or shorts that are equipped with an access flap when retracted creates an opening in the crotch area enabling the user to urinate without the need of pulling their pants down. The shorts are fashioned with or without a permanent or detachable inner liner which takes the place of underwear. The inner liner has a permanent opening over the urethra in order to allow urine to flow without being impeded by clothing. The outer layer, the actual shorts themselves, have a releasable fastened flap that is opened by pulling preferably from back to front exposing the underlying liner in the area of the opening over the urethra. A woman can freely straddle her legs apart and urinate without any clothing getting saturated.
