Dri-Luxe, dude. It's all about the Dri-Luxe. You'll never go back. I prefer it to the under armor type, personally.

There's three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who's got the same first name as a city; and never go near a lady's got a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, everything else is cream cheese. --Coach Finstock

If they made it in a brief, then I'd agree. Don't care for the more baggy boxer. I've also been told (at distribution services) that the wicking property fades if you use fabric softener.Originally posted by Donuthole View PostDri-Luxe, dude. It's all about the Dri-Luxe.

I noticed that today when I went in to the distribution center. I haven't worn boxers in a long time. The lightest brief they have is the 50/50 blend. I'm still going to try the boxer style and see if I can deal with it.Originally posted by Jacob View PostIf they made it in a brief, then I'd agree. Don't care for the more baggy boxer.

If you buy petite, the bottoms are much shorter(mid-thigh) and the trick to getting garments to fit, buy a size smallerOriginally posted by Mrs. Funk View PostBelieve me, I've been thinking VERY seriously about it lately and today was frustrating enough that I'm thinking about it even more seriously. I think my heart would be in the right place.

Word on the street is that there is a new kind of women's G's, with a wider waistband and no lace on the legs. My MIL told my wife this when they talked the other day.Prepare to put mustard on those words, for you will soon be consuming them, along with this slice of humble pie that comes direct from the oven of shame set at gas mark “egg on your face”! -- Moss

Attention garment-wearing CUFettes: The Distribution Center recently released a Carinessa top (like the new bottoms released a few years ago). It's shaped and wears much like a Shade t-shirt. It's a polyester/spandex mix. No gross stretchy lace, just a small patterned edge (even this could go, but it's much less scratchy). True cap sleeves. The bottom of the shirt has a hem, instead of a serged edge! I think it could very feasibly be worn as a cami (the way dudes wear their crew necks under buttoned-down shirts).
My advice: Go with a petite length unless you had a very long torso. I heard a Distribution Center worker trying to convince a woman to get a regular or a tall. A regular length would be down to my thighs. At $5 a pop, you don't want to be stuck with something unwearable.
But they are pretty great as garments go. Definitely a step in the right direction. Now if only the bottoms didn't go up past my navel . . ."You know, I was looking at your shirt and your scarf and I was thinking that if you had leaned over, I could have seen everything." ~Trial Ad Judge

This is an interesting and unusual piece: It's by an English member of the church, writing in The Guardian:
Mormon underwear keeps body and soul together
I expect to see things like this in the American news media. It's kind of surprising (and nice) to see it in the British media.“There is a great deal of difference in believing something still, and believing it again.”

The idea of asking anybody about their underwear, magical or otherwise, just seems weird to me. A friend related a legend in his mission of a bishop, when asked about his "magical underwear," who would ask, "So is your wife wearing a thong?" When people spluttered about it being inappropriate, he would respond, "Exactly. It's the same as asking about my underwear." Perhaps not a totally apt analogy, but funny."You know, I was looking at your shirt and your scarf and I was thinking that if you had leaned over, I could have seen everything." ~Trial Ad Judge

Let us know when they come out with the satin bikini style bottoms.
