Abstract
An unfolded hour-glass shaped undergarment brief assembly comprising two shaped half width segments superposed in overlapping relationship with about half of the overlapped central area between segment halves bonded to form a unitary rear panel. The other half of the overlap is left unbonded to provide an opening in the front panel. The outer margin of the opening can be reinforced by enclosure within a v-folded strip and the overlapped segments are held together by a releasable fastening means that joins the two front panel half width segments. Tapes or other fastening means protrude from the side margins and are used to complete the waist and leg apertures after the front half is folded upward around the user. Release strip covered adhesive receptor areas are provided to accept an absorbent pad insert. The central crotch section can have flap extensions that are folded around edges of the pad insert to hold it in place and prevent side leakage from the pad.
