Anyone wear Flexars for competing?

[Stenners]

I have 2 pairs of Flexars which I love and I need a white pair of something for competing. Does anyone compete in white Flexars or would you recommend proper breeches?

Watching with interest as I've been pondering this too . . . .

I have white Flexars and they are great as they are double the thickness so nothing shows through even when bending over. I love all my Flexars once I got the right size

Did you find you had to size down in them? I have a black pair and am between sizes so went for the bigger ones but they're too long in the leg and go a bit wrinkley so not sure if I'd have been better in the smaller ones.

The instructions say they should be difficult to pull up. I had to size down. Indeed, they are tight to pull up but once up, they fit perfectly.

I have beige ones and love them. They’re really comfortable and don’t give you vpl’s, are flattering and a jacket sits over them well.

This is fab! I do also have the beige ones but haven't worn them yet. I think I'll get a white pair then as without trying a load of breeches on I don't know what will fit or be comfy and I know flexars are so comfy!

I have found my black ones have started to go bobbly between the legs, they've probably been used 6 times - has anyone else had this? I've only had them since January.

Yes they go on height so I sized down to a small as I’m 5ft 4, I originally went for a large as I’m a size12/14 normally but they were too long and wrinkly so go small

I would contact them about the bobbly bits as they’re not supposed to do that and the woman that owns the company is lovely, I met her at HOYS and she was so helpful with sizing etc so might be worth emailing them.

The leaflet I got with mine said this can happen. It happens with most of my jods as I'm, erm, 'curvy' so I use one of those gadgets that removes the bobbles.

I'm a 16 and 5ft 5 and I wear medium flexars. They are dinky when I hold them up but after some gentle tugging to get into them, they are a good fit when on.

Looked at these for competing and everyone says v comfortable etc. Ordered both their white and their beige. Sent both back as disliked both colours. White is too white and beige too beige. They need to come up with a more forgiving version of white I think!

 

[Stenners]

I do love white! Maybe I'll order a pair and see what they look like!
