knickers! i rode in my thongs, read this and weep for me!!!!!!!

Sorry I`m still laughing !! I just couldn't ride in a thong or in fact even wear one, probably why I am still single! M&S big pants all the way

Sexy pants good, granny pants better :D
I'm lucky my OH doesn't care about wearing potato sacks for knickers or the fact that I haven't shaved my legs since like the 90s haha, I am such a catch...
 
Sympathy, done it once and paid the price.....now I only wear Apple Catchers, as my OH lovingly calls them, when riding. Saddle sore one thing, bits sore, a totally different ball game ( or not as the case may be). In my defence OH has riding pants too, apparently keeps his important places in the right place...:)
 
Has to be done. But once, only once.

Thongs for normal wear are fine but don't mix with horses. Nothing elegant about fishing down the back of your breeches trying to extract the thong from a place it was never meant to be in!
 
I used to wear thongs all the time. I changed to proper knickers when all the manufacturers started to make them too small ;):)
 
If you can hang up six pairs on the washing line with one peg then they don't deserve to be called knickers and should not be treated as such.

This is correct! There are some masochists on this thread, I bet your underwear matches as well ;) I think sexy pants are exactly like regular pants but a racy colour like black or red. Pahaha
 
Hahahahha I feel your pain did the same not so long ago.... Just healing now.

The shower and bath ohhhhhh the burn eek! All the best Inhale to say germoline was abit of a lifesaver!
 
I did a few days of Western riding in the Yorkshire Dales some years ago. After hours and hours bumping round in the saddle, I was in severe pain. Canesten cream, if you can get it over there (Lordy, what is the word for thrush over there?!) will help enormously.
 
I ride in a G string all the time I never wear anything else ever, those big knickers end up wedged in the crack of your bum anyway so I would much rather have a tiny piece of material there to start with.

Me too , I got seamless shorts in bright orange and they annoy the hell out of me but are my lucky co petition pants , I don't get nervous when I wear them coz all I can think about is the bloody things riding up my ass , by time I've worked out phow to get them out in s subtle way the round of jumps is finished or test is over ;)
 
Well, you lot are all,obviously young. A thong is no good to hold tenna ladies in place is it !

When you get to my age a hack of more than half an hour needs a seat saver and plenty of padding and just don't mention sitting trot.
 
*Wiping tears from eyes*. Some cracking threads on here.

Never had an issue riding in thongs but since having children I wear short style pants, things have changed!!!!!;):(
 
I wouldn't recommend the no pants idea when competing. My old boss (dressage judge) did a test in front of numerous judges, all of which she knew, flying low with no pants on. She only noticed at her salute at the end of her test. They all noticed apparently!!!
 
I'm with AdorableAlice. They need a gusset wide enough to take a panty liner. At my age the pelvic floor can't take an unexpected cat leap and it's not a good look in cream jods!
 
I hate big pants, sometimes the leg seam will cause a bum rub at the top of the leg.

^^^ This, omg, that seem that runs across the back of the gusset leaves me red raw in my delicate inner thigh/butt cheek meeting point, and in agony !!! I can`t ride in a thong, no way lol .... does anyone know if they do seam less knickers with no gusset seams?

Mens boxer shorts. :)

Haha this is me...or the fact i sit like a boy and eat about 400 x more than him.... i can see why he loves me!
 
I wore a thong on a 4 hour ride once, years ago, when I wasn't riding fit. OH, watching my wriggling and shuffling, christened it "chuff chafe" and so it has been called ever since :) Of course, passing a Chiff-Chaff Cottage shortly afterwards just added to the hilarity :)
Nb chuff CHAFE must be differentiated from chuff CHAFF, which are perhapsthe aforementioned wispy bits which fly out when knickers are peeled off :)
 
You know, I just cannot find the right undies for riding. I've tried everything and am too wussy to go commando! I ride on week trails quite often, sometimes 9+ hours a day in the saddle, and I wish I could find something truly comfortable!

There's such a thing as matching underwear??????? ;) why have I not got any.?

Comfort all the way for me. M&S 'normal' pants vpl or not..... Tho light/white pants only either beige jods no black!
 
Due to a washing machine malfunction I was going commando today. An hour and a half of trot poles and jumping and I'm feeling rather chafed :p
 
jesus GOD above
there are no words
i have become pain
and shall be forever known as Jane Wayne
i will never be able to sit down properly again and will have to buy a whoopy cushion from Argos
i have discovered a new skin tone and have called it Riders Wedgey White
i will have to ask HO to pluck M&S cotton fibres from my a*se for the next month

do i need to continue?!!!!

the woman i was riding with for the first time this morning commented on my unusual riding style, yes, i whispered weakly,.
i call it 'thonging'

morning everyone!!


Literally crying with both laughter and sympathy, yes I have made this mistake once too!!!!!!

I wear womens boxer-cut shorts - don't *ahem* migrate north ;) and the seams are far enough down your legs that they don't chafe.
 
I dont need to weep for you, I can weep with you! I normally wear a thong, hacks, crosscountry competitions, doesnt bother me. I did a 14 mile beach ride one day wearing a thong with lacy edging. By the time I got back to the yard I thought I was going to need plastic surgery. I got home and put savlon on. It was like sitting spread legged in a patch of stinging nettles. I learnt a valuable lesson that day!
