Abstract

Abstract The knitted clothing article has a nonfeltable base mesh layer. On the outside surface of said base mesh layer a yarn layer is knitted in a said base mesh and consisting of feltable textile fibres and forming loop pile meshes. Due to the interaction of the inner base mesh layer with the outer plush layer, a climatic zone is built up that, especially in sports clothing, hosiery and health clothing, assures a good moisture removal and an agreeable body temperature.
