Abstract
A leg portion has at its upper end a first upper thigh, hip and abdomen covering section to the upper portion of which is connected a second upper thigh, abdomen and hip covering section for the opposite side of the wearer's body. A waistband is attached to the upper ends of the sections. An elastic crotch gusset is connected to and between the remaining lower portions of the sections and coacts with the sections to effect substantially uniformly tensioned engagement of the sections and the crotch gusset entirely about the wearer's upper thighs and groin areas. The crotch gusset and the second section define between them a downward leg opening through which the remaining leg of a wearer extends, and the crotch gusset and the second section each provide part of an edge for the leg opening and which edge snuggly engages about the upper thigh of the remaining leg of the wearer to restrain upward creeping of the second section. The garment is especially suitable for persons afflicted with varicose veins in the groin and upper thigh areas of the body, and possibly abdominal area.
