1. An electrode structure for electronic muscle stimulation (EMS), comprising:
a conductive fabric layer having a first surface and a second surface opposite to each other;
a plurality of EMS points on the first surface of the conductive fabric layer;
a water retention fabric layer connected to the first surface of the conductive fabric layer, wherein the plurality of EMS points are consisted of the water retention fabric layer, wherein the water retention fabric layer and the conductive fabric layer are interconnected by a plurality of water retention yarn loops of the water retention fabric layer and a plurality of conductive yarn loops of the conductive fabric layer, and the conductive yarn loops are completely hidden under the water retention yarn loops; and
a dielectric protection layer disposed on the first surface of the conductive fabric layer and surrounding a peripheral of the water retention fabric layer.
