I ended up with the Terry knickers and like them a lot. I'm not a huge fan of the "ultimate chamoise" as I'm more "aware" of it than my others, but that might be because it hasn't been laundered yet and hasn't softened. I don't dislike it, but I know it's there.

Embarassing moment. I was at the hospital in my mil's room when my husband mentioned the temps were predicted to drop into the 40s. I said, "Oh that reminds me -- I want to get some knickers for when that happens." He looked startled and so did the nurse's aide/tech who was in there. I described them and kept talking and didn't think more about it until later when we were driving home and he said it sounded like instead of "knickers" I'd said the n-word.

Yikes!

I think I'll call them capris from now on.
