I guess the question is: Do you wear undies under your undies?

In the words of some California stoners..... you can check out any time you like, but you can never leave.

Personally, I like the fact that, although the question's been asked many times before, never has the choice to wear undies been so vociferously defended.  I gotta give you that........

Evidently the predecessor defenders didn't have the same degree of vociferous va-jay-jay valuation and visibility issues.

Cool

Do you have to adjust your seat height based on the number of layers you wear?

Sort of defeats the purpose of wearing running shorts doesnt it?  No point in doubling up in undie duty, even if it's cold out.

Seems like it would be uncomfortable. 



Ugh, I can't run in underwear either. I either run in compression shorts or this pair of mesh shorts that have a built-in underwear sort of thingy (they're most definitely women's shorts, too). My sister runs in mesh/synthetic thongs and swears by it. (And she's a pretty serious runner)

thongs UNDER shorts...

Though in all seriousness, I do keep trying to convince her to do a triathlon. She was a competitive swimmer for years and is a good runner, so she'd just have to get a bike - I have a hybrid she could train on and she definitely makes enough to score a low-end road bike without breaking the bank. However, she is an accountant and works insane hours and doesn't quite have the discipline to get up on weekend mornings (and not drink like a fish the night before -she's only 24 and still hasn't outgrown all that).

Okay, un-hijacking now...

No undies. Wash your shorts in the washer and dry them in the dryer. The dryer is actually good for them (you can even read that for yourself on the Pearl Izumi web site). My cycling shorts get washed and dried, on average, 50 times a year, and all but one pair of my cycling shorts in use right now are at least two, if not three years old. I only own four pairs of cycling shorts; the fourth pair was purchased this summer. I will wear racing tri shorts every once in a while, hence the reason they don't all get washed once a week. I never wear undies and I use body glide on occasion. I also pee in them on occasion.

They probably lose some sexiness after you sweat in them so much...that smell just never comes out of cotton. I'm speaking from "running in cotton t-shirts" experience, of course.

How do you not go through multiple pairs of undies?

Just wash your shorts.

undies are cheap, my biking shorts are $80.00!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  um, and I do wash my shortsYell

Please tell me this is some kind of inside joke, I've missed! Why would you wear under wear with bike shorts?

okay, I see I am a minority, but c'mon... why is this so weird?  Is it any different than wearing underwear under running shorts?, or jeans?... it's just another level of wear... so I like to feel snug, so whatTongue out



Not weird at all. I still wear a thong underneath

I admit - I wore underwear under my biking shorts when I first started.  But, it's much more comfortable and much less chafing without them.  Some of my running shorts don't have undies built in, so I wear underwear under those or my tights.  But never under the biking shorts.  It took some getting used to and felt a little strange at first, but it is much better this way.

Hey pigfinn,
Don't feel so bad. Heck I wear them with my biking shorts, I never knew any different. Ok so now I know and I'll try it without them. There's a reason I joined this site, to learn. I thought that was a stupid question to ask on my part, I'm glad you did.

Interesting - my ex always used to put his in the dryer, but he's a guy and he usually buys cheap shorts from Performance, so I figured he just didn't care.

I wore underwear at first too, but now realized that it is so much more comfortable without! Learning as I go...

Never thought about not wearing undies under my running shorts, I have no inner layer within the shorts so my lady parts would definitely be viewable!

Jockeys go on the outside of the bike shorts only.
