Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of alternate work/rest and knit structure of underwear on various subjective sensations of temperature and humidity. Underwear manufactured from 100% polypropylene fibres in five different knit structures (1-by-l rib, fleece, fishnet, interlock, double-layer rib) were applied and tested as part of a prototype clothing system. Human testing was done on eight male subjects, and took place at T
