1. I am officially over cotton.
2. I sweat. A lot. (See point 1).
3. I prefer not to go commando except under bike shorts.
4. I'm set in the thong department (Under Armour Pure Stretch, nylon/spandex, highly recommend!), but I'm looking for briefs to wear under loose shorts. The UA version...turned into a thong.
What has worked for you?

Under Armour. Snug, holds everything in place, wicks sweat, reduces friction and feels comfortable.0

Yes I agree, you will have to demonstrate what you mean, im lost as well.0 -
Have run two marathons in two years from never running before. Tried and tested a LOT of pants! Best out there in my opinion are from Decathlon. Think this is UK based but they have a website. They're called Kalenji Briefs and are cheap as chips!0

I swear by Victoria's Secret in and out of the gym. The no show sport panties are nice!0

Grey Y-fronts. Very underrated.0

I love Soma for bras and panties.0

Interesting how you recommend it and say its snug yet OP says UA turns into a thong. Is this because there is not a "band" around the leg holes?
I bought some microfiber boy shorts style panties because I read a good review on a blog by a woman who has lost a lot of weight. She said they hold everything in place also but on me they rode up in back. It must be different body types.
I was looking at these : http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/dkny-seductive-lights-shaping-briefs/3926781?origin=category-personalizedsort&contextualcategoryid=0&fashionColor=Skinny+Dip%2F+Tusk&resultback=2644&cm_sp=personalizedsort-_-browseresults-_-1_7_A but think they might roll up in back also.
I've been using these http://www1.macys.com/shop/product/bali-firm-control-lace-trim-microfiber-brief-2-pack-x054?ID=483710 because I like the high cut legs with lace insert yet full coverage in back on bottom, but they don't go smaller than a medium so won't work for smaller women. These really do stay in place. Probably more coverage (higher) than many want though. Clothes sure slide on easily over these and they are just firm enough to not feel jiggly, in case that is an issue for anyone else.
Going to bookmark this thread in hopes there are some more ideas.

Jockey for Her's appropriately named "Comfees." I like the cotton hipsters, but they also do a microfiber version and do briefs, french cuts, and bikinis as well.
Me no likey thongs. I've spent the last 40-odd years trying to keep my underpants OUT of there, I can't imagine putting it in on purpose.0 -

This 19-year-old unashamedly wears big granny knickers like 60% of the time. They're comfortable, I don't have a romantic partner, nobody's going to see them... so why not? The other 40% of the time I have cute cat knickers because I like cats.0

Cotton is rotten!
I don't wear underwear. At all.
I don't get #3. Why would you wear underwear under bike shorts but not under any other shorts? IMO, commando is way more comfortable in ANY workout gear, period.

Yes. The product description claims the seamlessness prevents panty lines. Which is technically accurate, but not quite for the reason they want to be.goddessofawesome wrote: »I don't get #3.

Ah, I *don't* wear underwear under bike shorts (with chamois/padding). Why...well, there's the aesthetic issue--the padding means no cameltoe by default--but mostly it's because, well, let's just say many distance cyclists find it more expedient to pee in transitu. I don't need an extra layer up in that business.
I prefer underwear with other workout gear because (a) cameltoe (b) chafing (c) my inner 10-year-old boy just KNOWS some yahoo at the gym is gonna sneak up and pants me as a prank.
The Moving Comfort runderwear has great reviews on Road Runners and decent ones on Amazon. Anyone have experience with those?0 -
Doesn't the center seam get a little too affectionate when going commando in spandex tights/yoga pants? I love my comfy workout pants, but not in the Biblical sense.0

-
I dunno. I just wear cotton briefs from VS. I guess maybe I don't sweat that much.0
-
I have two pairs of the Moving Comfort underwear and I love them. They're true to size in the L and don't give me a wedgie or show lines under leggings. Totally worth the extra $$.0

Granny pants or no pants depending on the totm x0

Commando. Always.0

Commando is the way to go lol0

I go commando almost all the time. When I'm forced to wear undies I love my lulu bikinis. I have yet to have to readjust them while competing0

This 24 year old does the same. Except it's about 100% of the time for me. I just don't care. They're comfy. They're inexpensive. They hold it all in. On that note, I've never understood people's issue with panty lines. So I'm wearing underwear, just like almost everyone else on the planet. That's a surprise to you because...?
I've considered branching out into "cute" underwear, but I have never in my life found cute underwear that 1. didn't cost an arm & a leg & 2. wasn't completely uncomfortable to wear. Maybe someday!

Especially because when dealing with snug workout gear the alternative to panty lines.....

I have a pair from victoria's secret that are very similar to the under armour ones and don't ride up.0

I have synthetic regular cut black panties from MEC (similar to REI for the Americans) They can also double as bathing suit bottoms-especially with a black sports bra as a top.
For cross country skiing I love a brand called "Pullins" synthetic boxer style briefs-they come in both mens and womens styles- I got them at a store close out.0 -
granny pants on workout days and french knickers, shorts etc on non workout days the granny pants rock because they are really comfy and dont get stuck up the old butt crack when doing aerobic activity0
