PURPOSE: To obtain the title cloth with a combination of antifungal nature excellent in washing durability with two functions of both water-proofness and moisture permeability, by incorporating an antifungal substance into a specified number of fine pores formed on the resin film on a cloth.
CONSTITUTION: When a cloth made up of synthetic or semi-synthetic fiber is to be coated with a resin solution, such a solution as to be prepared by incorporating said resin solution (e.g., for the purpose of the film strength, pref. polyamino acid polyurethane resin solution) with an antifungal substance is applied on said cloth followed by e.g., underwater coagulation to effect incorporation of said antifungal substance into the resultant finely porous resin film formed so as to be 20-70% in the porosity determined by the relationship [P is porosity (%); W is weight (g) of the resin film; S is area (cm2) of the resin film; d is thickness (cm) of the resin film; ρ is density (g/cm3) of the resin], thus obtaining the objective cloth. To form said finely porous film, wet or dry coagulation process may be used. Said antifungal substance is e.g., 2- naphthyl-N-methyl-N-(3-tolyl)thiocarbonate.
