BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Field of the Invention.
[0004] The present disclosure relates generally to an man’s brief. More so, the present invention relates to a comfortable brief for Men.
Description of the related art.
[0005] Outer appearance and fabric of man’s briefs have evolved over a period of time to provide more comfort to the users. However, one of the discomforts to users is caused by friction between a penis, a scrotum and a groin region. Another discomfort caused to the users is maintaining a penis or a scrotum in a comfortable position.
[0006] A few designs of man’s briefs tries to address the above by providing protruding pockets on an man’s brief for placement of a penis and a scrotum. Such protruding pockets on man’s briefs are visible externally giving an unpleasant visual appeal.
[0007] In light of the above mentioned drawbacks, there exists a need of a visual appealing and comfortable man’s brief.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0008] A primary object of the disclosure is to provide a comfortable man’s brief.
[0009] Another object of the present disclosure is to provide an man’s brief that provide separation among a penis, a scrotum and a groin region.
[0010] Yet another object of the present disclosure is to an man’s brief that provide separation among a penis, a scrotum and a groin region, while having conventional visual appearance from outside.

[0022] It should be noted that the accompanying figures are intended to present illustrations of exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure. This figure is not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure. It should also be noted that the accompanying figures are not necessarily drawn to scale. The front side of the man’s brief is the side that hosts the penis and the backside is the side that covers the hips.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0023] Reference will now be made in detail to selected embodiments of the present disclosure in conjunction with accompanying figures. The embodiments described herein are not intended to limit the scope of the disclosure, and the present disclosure should not be construed as limited to the embodiments described. This disclosure may be embodied in different forms without departing from the scope and spirit of the disclosure. It should be understood that the accompanying figure is intended and provided to illustrate embodiments of the disclosure described below and are not necessarily drawn to scale. In the drawing, like numbers refer to like elements throughout, and thicknesses and dimensions of some components may be exaggerated for providing better clarity and ease of understanding.
[0024] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", and the like, herein do not denote any order, ranking, quantity, or importance, but rather are used to distinguish one element from another. Further, the terms "a" and "an" herein do not denote a limitation of quantity, but rather denote the presence of at least one of the referenced item. The words men’s brief, underwear, man’s brief all mean the same inner cloth for men. Any pocket mentions in this application for penis and/or scrotum can be open/closed/open-able at the other end or can be configured to provide partial or full separation. Each of the pocket configurations can be sewed to the front fabric panel 101 and/or the pockets can have a fabric panel parellal to the front fabric panel 101 . The first separator-fabric and the second separator-fabric pockets may be sewed on the front fabric panel of the brief for every configuration shown in this invention.
[0025] FIG. 1 illustrates an man’s brief 100 comprising the front fabric panel 101 defining front waist aperture 103 within or connected to the front a waist aperture 103. The front fabric panel 101 extends from the front waist aperture 103 down over to a penis 108 to over the scrotum 110 to the groin region 112 between the left and the right legs to at the rear fabric panel 102 which then connects to the back waist aperture 104. The man’s brief is configured to have an opening 106 for each of the two legs. Every drawing only shows opening 106 which is meant to be for the left leg of the men who are wearing this apparatus. The men’s brief further comprises a fabric pocket 125 configured to hold the scrotum 110, wherein the pocket 125 shown here is closed at the bottom and an opening to insert the scrotum 110. The fabaric pocket 125 has a second separator fabric that separates the scrotum 110 from the groin region 112. The pocket 125 can be configured entirely of a same or two separate fabric.
