My butt seems to fall out the bottom of most underwear. I've had good luck with Isis briefs and Patagonia "Active Briefs."Quote:

They aren't dressy but for good ol' plain vanilla jeans, I go with Cabelas. They aren't made in the USA but if they don't fit I wouldn't buy anyway.
If you don't tell anyone what brand they are, no-one will know.Quote:

They could be called "You're Old, Your A$$ is Sagging, And Your Thighs Rub" and I'd still buy them. :D
They look good, I look good, and anyone looking inside my jeans and seeing the letters "NYDJ" has probably seen a lot more already... ;)

Soma Vanishing Edge microfiber undies. They don't even show under yoga pants.Quote:

Thanks for the suggestions though :) I like buying underwear, for some reason. Probably b/c I don't have to spend hours in fitting rooms trying it on. (GRR jeans)
My problem and predilection exactly. UnderArmour compression shorts act as fine undies, too. They don't go anywhere, and they don't show any VPL.Quote:

Where do you get them?Quote:

Online. They have some stores/boutiques, but the nearest one is over an hour from me. Instead, I wait for a good sale, coupon-stack, and get them for the same price as Hanes, etc.Quote:

Aren't petites too short for you? I am 5'2" and wear pants with a 29" inseam, which seems to be what most petites are these days. Some are 30", though; maybe you are longer in the torso and shorter-waisted? Traditionally petites are made for women < 5'4".Quote:

I've tried the microfibre ones, and they show, too. They ride up my cycling thighs. Same as boy shorts and end up giving me a wedgy, in addition to showing. I don't see the big deal about thongs. I want as little underwear as possible.
Yes, they are too short. I refuse to wear heels, and usually wear my Vibrams or moccasins w/jeans. I never understood that high heels w/jeans look, but that's just anti-heels me.Quote:
