......for working out? Be it either running, biking, hitting the weights or whatever makes you sweat?

Me...I'm a Fruit of the Loom cotton girl myself. I know that cotton is not the best but I can't see wearing nylon or whatever for running or biking...no stretch, comfort or move ability. By the end of my workout though my undies are usually a wet soppy mess.
So does anyone have something beyond cotton undies that work?....that are inexpensive, wisk sweat away and are comfortable?

Sorry about the TMI! :blushing:

    Since I workout when I get home from work, I'm in the same undies. I do switch from my pants to a pair of shorts though. And yes, I also wear cotton. Synthetics give me a rash. :wink:

    For me...just plain ol' FOTL or Hanes cotton bikinis. No use getting all fancy when they're just going to get sweaty anyway!

    Depends on the activity, under my tri shorts / running tights I use under armour compression shorts. If I'm just rolling out of bed and going for a run (or heading out after work) I'm just a Stanfields kind of guy.

    If I'm going on a long run or running a race I'll use my under armour - I find that ordinary cotton gets gross (soggy & clammy feeling).

    This reminds me of the time my friend wore a quick dry thong with cotton pants to the gym. She was walking around with a thong shaped wet spot on her pants!
    I wear regular cotton myself.

    If I'm wearing gym pants, I go commando, why is there a need for undies? Most gym shorts have the undies in them already.

    If I'm working out at home, it's whatever I was wearing for the day...or none.

    If I'm going for a jog I like my Tilley "travel" undies.

    Vs cotton thongs. The best and no riding up, because they're already there. :-D

    I usually wear my running shorts that have a panty liner in them, so no undies.

    Under Armour compression shorts.

    this is all i wear anymore, but i like the nike ones better, they are more expensive, but worth the money imo, they are more comfortable around the waist, and seem to breathe better, cause they are a bit thinner.
