Abstract:
Under arm and under arm/breast perspiration shields to absorb perspiration and protect clothing are disclosed. In general, the perspiration shields are adapted to attach to the side strap, cup, or other portion of a bra and extend into the under arm and, in some embodiments, the breast regions to absorb perspiration. The absorbent portion of the perspiration shields may be made of a number of layers of material, including absorbent layers interspersed with substantially impermeable layers. In some embodiments, the perspiration shields may attach to the bra strap using an attachment portion which folds over the strap. The attachment portion, and other portions, may be provided with fabric adhesive to aid in attachment. In other embodiments, fabric adhesive may be provided directly on an absorbent portion of the perspiration shield to effect attachment.
