DESCRIPTION OF THE ILLUSTRATED EMBODIMENTS


FIG. 1 illustrates a bottom view of a preferred embodiment of the invention, which comprises a washable, reusable thong garment 10 structured to removably hold urinary pads proximate the urethra of women. The thong garment 10 has a low V cut front 12 with side ends 14 and a bottom end 16 and a T or V shaped back 18 with side ends 20 and a bottom end 22 whose side ends 20 when connected to the front side ends 14 form a waistband structured to removably secure around the waist. The thong garment 10 is constructed of a washable fabric of silk, sateen, lace, satin, nylon, cotton, and/or washable leather. The front 12 of the thong garment can be plain or decorated with designs, sayings, sequins, and/or rhinestones.


To make it easy for the wearer to put the thong garment 10 on or take it off, each side ends 14, 22 in the waistband belt area has a Velcro fastener 26. On each side of the Velcro fastener 26 (or other fastener) are two to three inches of elastic or elasticized material 28, which stretch and contract for proper fit or to accommodate different sized wearers. In the crotch area, a pouch 30 is sewn as shown to hold and position a urinary pad 34 therein to absorb occasional or intermittent leakage of the bladder.


The pouch 30 is to be of a compatible or contrasting fabric or color approximating four inches wide by ten inches long to accommodate a standardized urinary pad. Elastic is to be sewn around the edges of the pouch 30 opening 32 so that when a urinary pad 34 is placed in the pouch 30, it is held in by tension giving the wearer a feeling of security that the urinary pad 34 will not be exposed or fallout.



FIG. 2 is a front view of the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 showing 1 plunging front 12, which is decorated or patterned to suit the preference of a user.



FIG. 3 is a back view of the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 with a T shaped back 18.



FIG. 4 is back view of a V shaped back 18 with a plunging waistband.


Either the straight back or plunging waistband style is employed, depending upon the user's preferences.


The invention thus provides a reusable, decorative thong garment 10, with a pouch 30 to hold interchangeable urinary pads 34 and structured to provide the wearer with a feeling of security that the pad will not be exposed or fall out.


The above description and specification should not be construed as limiting the scope of the claims. The claims themselves recite those features deemed essential to the invention.
