I gotta know... What type of underwear(if any) do you wear for running? I'm torn between comfort and VPL, and going commando seems a bit...sweaty.

What do you do?

    Can't wear them personally :blushing: -- I wear tights. I do have one pair of runderwear :bigsmile: they are made by Under Armour -- I will wear them if I feel like I need to otherwise I will put shorts over the tights or long shirt or vest.

    I run in tankini bottoms. I had trouble with normal undies either riding up or slinking down. Not a real commando person. Swimwear solved all problems and were already in the drawer.

    I wear boyshort underwear (girly boxer briefs) when I work out. It's what I normally wear.

    I just use boyshort-style underwear. They said on the package that they don't ride up, and at first, this was true! =) Now, I think it might be time for some more! =)

    i always have to wear the shorts that are lined with the panty; therefore, no panty. :)

    Since I wear volleyball low-rise 2.5" shorts to work out, I wear victoria's secret PINK's boyshorts.
    If I wear long form fitting pants, sometimes I do not wear underwear, or PINK's boyshorts.

    I hate to admit it but I have to wear brief style undies in order to avoid wedgies while running. Normally I wear "hipster" or boyshort styles but they don't stay in place when the booty's shakin. :)

    I truly don't understand what the big deal is about VPL when working out (I've seen it come up multiple times).

    There are just times when a girl needs to wear whatever is comfortable and running is one of those times!

    Thong, but you know there's a big difference between your hangout everyday wear undies and the ones you workout in. Prime example, lace undies... probably not the greatest idea. Learned that from years of experience, you just gotta find out what's right for you.

    I do the boyshort underwear that's in girl panty fabric - gives me some extra support and total butt coverage!
