Abstract: An underarm perspiration pad for being releasably secured within a garment (12) proximate the underarm area (14) of such garment for protecting the garment (12) from damage resulting from contact with perspiration and for absorbing perspiration from the underarm skin surface of a wearer of the garment (12). The pad (10) comprises a first exterior panel (16) and a second exterior panel (20) joined at their peripheral edges (26, 28) to enclose a perspiration absorbent filler (24). The first exterior panel (16) contacts the skin surface of the wearer of the garment (12) and serves to absorb perspiration from the skin from the wearer and to wick such perspiration to the absorbent filler (24) where it is retained. The second exterior panel (20) is fabricated of a perspiration impervious material and prohibits perspiration from contacting the garment (12). Further, the second exterior panel (20) is provided with means for releasably securing the pad (10) to the garment (12).
