Abstract (en)

The invention relates to a method for making an elasticised pants article for persons suffering from incontinence, comprising the steps of knitting, by a circular loom, a tubular fabric element, having a homogeneous knitted construction, of the 1-to-1 knitting type, removing equivalent portions of the tubular element fabric, so that the front and rear fabric portions of the tubular element are equal to one another, and seaming, without any upturned portions, the tubular element near the zones thereof from which said fabric portions have been removed. The knitting process further provides to introduce one or more threads or yarns of an uncoated elastomeric material. The present invention further relates to an elasticised pants article for persons suffering from incontinence made by the inventive method. <IMAGE>
