    'Cause you all want to know... I do have a pair of patagonia hipsters. Thom reports that no undies can be seen, even when I sit.

    I am quite modest about what shows at work. I don't need 5th grade boys fantasizing - especially since I have to do sex ed in the spring!

    V. - off to order more Patagonia underwear and maybe a cashemere sweater.

    My UnderArmor compression shorts do just peachy with my lower rise jeans. My other favorite undies are the "No Panty Line Promise" Jockeys. I have 5 or 6 pair of those. They don't stick out of the top of my trousers, either. (and no lines)

    If i went commando in jeans, i'd have to throw them in the laundry after every other wearing or something...they sure wouldn't last long! I like to wear my jeans many times before I wash them. I don't wear jeans for biking any distance- those jean seams are too lumpy.
    I wear comfy panties with pantyliners for all my clothes- even biking! I consider my pantyliners to be a thin disposable chamois- they don't bunch or have seams, and they are soft and comfy, similar to padded cotton- works for me!! I get the wide/long coverage ones, they are still very thin. I don't need any other chamois pads if i use my pantyliners with my Brooks saddle. I can't imagine all those giant foam pads! Saves me money too, because the unpadded bike shorts and tights are WAY cheaper (sometimes $30 less for the same style but unpadded). Calls me nuts but my "chami-liners" work great for me.

    I wear Victoria's Secret Low Rise Bikini with my jeans. It is the cotton type that have the little "Victoria's Secret" waistband. Comfy and fairly cheap for their stuff.

    One of the Target brands is made by Jockey. I compared a Target version of a cotton bikini to a Jockey version (both after being worn for a year or so) and the Target version was much better made and held up better.

    I think it's "Form Fit" or something similar.

    Hee hee, I'll spend $80 for biking shorts, but don't wanna spend more than $5 for underwear! Gee, what priorities I have!

    Calvin Klein and Maidenform makes low undies; I think Calvin calls them modern boyshorts, not sure what maidenform calls their low undies.
