Women’s boxers??

12 replies

LiveLaughLoaf · 24/02/2023 09:37

I think I need a pair of women’s boxers/trunks, but no idea if they even exist! Since moving I’ve started cycling as my main mode of transport, so not as a sport, just a daily way to get around. I’m probably on my bike between one and three hours a day. Great. BUT. My current knickers; plain M&S bikini, just aren’t comfortable. Leaving sore pressure spots on and under my bum cheek.So what I think I need is some pants that don’t cut across or under my bum at all. Like men’s trunks that go further down the leg but aren’t bulky so can wear under tights etc. Had anyone found anything like this? The only thing I’ve seen for women is tight shape wear shorts and that just makes me feel like a sausage in cling film! Thanks :)

Woxer is great and available in different lengths.

I've seen some nice ones on freemans but I haven't yet bought them!

Have you looked at oddballs?

I wear Smartwool boy shorts for women all the time and I love them, but they don't seem to make them anymore. They are a bit like these, which might be worth considering:

H&m and next do them for teenage girls so depending on your size you might be able to fit those

These are the type I wear, although as I said above, they no longer make them, luckily I bought loads of pairs a number of years ago. But I can wear them with tights or leggings/trousers as well as summer dresses and they are both comfortable and flattering, eliminating the VPL. So if you can find a similar shape they should work well:

Runderwear ones are great.

A very quick google for “women’s boxer shorts” brings up hundreds of options for you.

LiveLaughLoaf · 24/02/2023 12:38

Yes thank you I have googled it but it’s nice to get recommendations of ones people have actually bought!
