Abstract (en)

The garment (sleeveless shirt, short shorts, panties, etc.) exhibits at least an inside pocket (4) which is accessible by an opening closed by a zipper (2). To avoid outward bulging of the garment when a wallet, change purse or other bulky object is introduced into the pocket, it is provided to make the inside pocket in two layers, a rigid one adhering or hot-glued to the inside surface of the garment and the other pliable and elastic, which is deformed toward the inside of the garment, hiding the presence of said bulky object.
