Claims14
A garment for males configured to provide support to the wearer's genitalia during athletic or strenuous activity, the garment comprising:
- a moulded supportive structure comprising a moulded foam cup that maintains the genitalia in a supported and positioned configuration against the lower abdominal area during dynamic movement, independent of compression from a waistband;
- wherein the moulded foam cup has a thickness profile that varies across the cup to provide both structural support to the genitalia and concealment of the form of the wearer's genitalia when worn underneath tight-fitting clothing;
- wherein the moulded foam cup comprises edge regions in predetermined locations that are rounded to reduce friction and discomfort in areas of higher friction during movement, and tapered in other predetermined locations to blend substantially seamlessly with adjacent fabric of the garment;
- and
- wherein the garment comprises low-profile seams that are bonded and configured to be substantially invisible underneath tight-fitting outer garments.
