Benefits of technology

The invention provides a lower body garment that is easy to follow the movements of the lower body and comfortable to wear.

Problems solved by technology

However, there have been problems that even when making a three-dimensional shape by sewing the fabric pieces cut along the planar pattern like a pattern obtained by projecting the body onto a plane surface, it is extremely difficult to correspond to the abdomen, buttocks, and legs of a person exhibiting three-dimensional complicated curved surface shapes, and when configuring the pattern to be larger in order to avoid uncomfortable wearing pressure, not only bagginess is caused and the legs are raised toward the buttocks side to deteriorate wear comfort but beautiful appearance is impaired.

Abstract

A pair of boxer pants is easy to follow the movements of the lower body and is comfortable to wear. A pair of boxer pants is formed using a weft knitted fabric whose stretchability is different between a first direction (a direction along stretch lines S) and a second direction substantially orthogonal to the first direction, and the stretchability in the first direction (the direction along the stretch lines S) is larger than the stretchability in the second direction, resulting in being more extendable and contractable in the first direction (the direction along the stretch lines S) than in the second direction. In the pair of boxer pants, when, from the abdomen side, viewing a standing state with the pair of boxer pants worn, the first direction (the direction along the stretch lines S) is an oblique direction except for at least the central part; and when, from the back side, viewing the standing state with the pair of boxer pants worn, the first direction (the direction along the stretch lines S) is an up-down direction.
