Abstract

La présente invention concerne des vêtements de compression qui ont une ouverture admissible/conjointe facilitant les deux types d'élimination : 1) liquide à l'avant; et 2) solide à l'arrière. Le vêtement de compression est construit de telle sorte que, avant et après l'élimination, l'ouverture puisse être recouverte par deux rabats : 1) un partant vers le bas depuis la taille avant; et 2) un autre partant vers le bas depuis la taille arrière. Les rabats recouvrent l'ouverture lorsqu'ils sont reliés au niveau de leurs extrémités libres au milieu de l'entrejambe. Le vêtement est destiné à être porté pendant de longues périodes et pendant des situations sociales innombrables. De plus, le vêtement peut être porté après que des procédures médicales et chirurgicales ont été effectuées.
