I'm the owner/designer behind <a href="http://www.ThighSociety.ca" rel="nofollow">http://www.ThighSociety.ca</a> and I'm curious to know if you were able to try them out and compare them to Skimmies? I'd love to hear from you, so feel free to email me at <a href="mailto:marnie@thighsociety.ca">marnie@thighsociety.ca</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jockey-skimmies---my-new-bff#post-665565 Wed, 11 Jul 2012 05:10:08 +0000 Beth Ann 665565@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the review, Abie! I'll definitely try these. I bought a "pettipant" half slip this year --- basically a culotte shaped halfslip from Vanity fair. It's not glamourous, but it keeps me from feely sweaty underneath a skirt in hot temps and provide a little more "coverage," too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jockey-skimmies---my-new-bff#post-665525 Wed, 11 Jul 2012 03:57:24 +0000 velvetychocolate 665525@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow - what a great tip! I cannot do shapewear even at the best of times, let alone 100+ degree temperatures. It's been insanely hot...just nuts. </p> <p>These sound like a fab find for pairing with dresses and skirts in the hottest of summer months. Thanks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jockey-skimmies---my-new-bff#post-665493 Wed, 11 Jul 2012 03:09:44 +0000 sarah 665493@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look awesome, Abie! I'm glad you found something that works so well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jockey-skimmies---my-new-bff#post-665426 Wed, 11 Jul 2012 01:23:27 +0000 Abie 665426@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So, I've mentioned how it gets hot here. I don't like constricting shapewear when it's hot but I also don't like going completely bare legged. I don't get much of a problem with rubbing, but maybe TMI. my legs can get sweaty, especially in lined skirts which are often lined with poly. </p> <p>So far the best solution I have found is lightweight cotton bike shorts. The problem I have with them is the waistband. They almost always have a thick elastic band, which shows if the dress/top/skirt isn't thick enough to cover where the waistband is. </p> <p>I saw these jockey skimmies and decided to give them a try. They are nylon/spandex but are thin and breathable. They do not try to suck you in like shapewear does. They don't ride up and the waistband is seamless. I have tested them in 100+ temps now and they didn't feel hot at all. They seem to wick any moisture so my legs don't feel clammy. LOVE them!!</p> <p>I got them on jockey.com and had a 20% coupon. They are $20 a piece without a coupon and they offer free shipping with $75 normally but when I ordered you didnt have to spend 75 so if you are interested I'd watch for better coupons. They have S-XXL. </p> <p>I still aim to try thigh society shorts which are more expensive but made of bamboo! <a href="http://thighsociety.myshopify.com/products/thigh-society-underwear" rel="nofollow">http://thighsociety.myshopify......-underwear</a> I will likely pick up one pair this season, but for now I'm ecstatic over these jockey ones. </p> <p>I haven't seen other good options out there for this, but if you know of any, feel free to suggest. </p>
