A lot of men and women, that I talked to, told me that they do not like to wear gstrings or thongs when working out. Running, skating or other sports, they always use boxers or slip, but not thongs.
I seem to disagree, because I believe that thongs are the best running underwear, and don’t really wear any other when I go for my daily run. Why? Here are a couple of reasons, and they are all connected to the small overall size of thongs. Here we go:
1. They absorb less sweat and/or humidity. Because of the small size, its just less fabric on your body, that means less fabric that can get wet, doesen’t matter if it is your sweat from your workout, or humidity from the air, or rain. And we really don’t want to be wearing a lot of wet fabric while we run, do we?
2. You cool off faster. Again, thongs and gstrings cover a smaller portion of your skin than boxer shorts, that means that you don’t get as hot. Summer sports can be a hot and sweaty thing, so we try to be covered with fabric as little as possible, so why would you want to wear big boxer shorts, just to be even hotter?
3. They stay where they are supossed to. Boxers are a special problem, because they can roll and make you feel uncomfortable. This is especially a problem, when you wear tight sports clothes, like bycicle or running shorts. And it looks bad.
So, what is your oppinion on this, do you men wear thongs or gstrings for work-out seesions?
There is one minor problem with them, as I see it. On sporting events and other sport activities, you sometimes need to change in public, and wearing boxer shorts can make it easier for you to change in public or semi-public if you will. Thongs can show a bit too much.
