Abstract
Wearing test of basic dress in the same pattern which are made of four different kind of materials, namely, cotton, wool, synthetic leather and artificial leather, have been carried out under routine living condition in summer. The observation was analyzed from clothing hygienic point of view and the following results were obtained.
1. An experiment in air-conditioned room showed that the clothes made of artificial leather were of stronger wind-proof than the others.
2. Another experiment in a non-conditioned room showed that the microclimate (temperature and humidity under clothing) of those made of synthetic and artificial leather were inferior to the other two although they were comparatively easy to wear and work, while those of cotton and wool were not easy to wear and work and also were found partly unfitted to wear at thighs, ankles and arms.
