Abstract:
A fabric with wefts that include hard yarns and elastomeric yarns in a predetermined arrangement such that at least one hard yarn is alternately arranged with at least one elastomeric yarn, the elastomeric yarns having a greater shrinkage ratio than that of the hard yarns; the hard yarns form under portions and over portions with respect to warps, said under portions being formed when said hard yarns pass along the back side of the warps and defining loop portions, and said over portions being formed when the hard yarns pass along the front side of the warps and define connection portions, wherein for each hard yarn, the number of warps passed by the loop portion is at least 6, and the elastomeric yarns form under portions and over portions with respect to said warps in a weave that is tighter than the weave of the hard yarns.

Claim (Index 36):
An article comprising:\n a fabric having a first weave and a second weave; wherein the first weave forms a front face of the fabric, the first weave comprising warp yarns ( 104 ) and elastomeric weft yarns ( 105 ) tightly woven in a predetermined pattern, wherein the second weave forms a back face of the fabric, the second weave comprising said warp yarns ( 104 ) and hard weft yarns ( 106 ) loosely woven in a predetermined pattern such that said hard weft yarns form alternately arranged under portions and over portions with respect to said warp yarns, said under portions being formed when said hard weft yarns pass along the back side of the warp yarns and defining loop portions, and said over portions being formed when said hard weft yarn passes along the front side of the warp yarns and define connection portions, wherein for each hard weft yarn, an average number of warp yarns passed by the loop portion is at least 6, wherein the elastomeric weft yarns form alternately arranged under portions and over portions with respect to said warp yarns in a weave that is tighter than the weave of the hard yarns, and wherein said elastomeric and hard weft yarns are arranged in a predetermined arrangement comprising at least one hard yarn alternately arranged with at least one elastomeric yarn, the elastomeric yarns having a greater shrinkage ratio than the shrinkage ratio of the hard yarns.
