Abstract

An improved brief which provides an internal pocket in the front of the brief with an opening at the top. The pocket is positioned to hold the shaft portion of the penis as it extends downward, with the scrotum being separated by the cloth of the pocket piece from the shaft. Thus, any drippings from the tip of the shaft will not come in contact with the scrotum or any other portion of a man'"'"'s body, since they will fall into the pocket and be separated thereby. In addition, by separating the skin of the shaft from the scrotum, the formation of sweat in the area that would normally be contacting there-between is prevented.
