  • Patent number: 5022517
    Abstract: A wrap for bar soap having first and second side walls with side members extending along two side edges and a bottom edge of the side walls. The side members connect the two side walls together along the edges and maintain the spacing between them; they also provide venting. The side members have only two layers of material. The top edges of the side walls are not joined but are open for insertion and removal of the bar soap. The side walls have inner and outer layers. The inner layer is made from a multiplicity of overlapping layers of nylon netting. An intermediate layer of soft, foam cushion material is sandwiched between the outer and inner layers and connected to the layers only along the outer periphery of the intermediate layer. The outer layer may be of a thick terrycloth material or overlapping layers of nylon netting. The side members in the preferred embodiment are also made of the nylon netting material without the intermediate layer.
