Jockey Women's Underwear Skimmies® Wicking Slipshort

I've always avoided wearing skirts or dresses because of the dreaded thigh rub. I've tried Bandelettes, which are basically lacy bands that go around your thighs, but I found that those weren't as comfortable as I might have liked. So I was eager to try these Skimmies, which are basically like shorts, but made of a thinner slip-like material. And these were exactly what I was looking for. For someone more accustomed to wearing pants than skirts, the style felt super comfortable; the wide waistband is reminiscent of yoga pants and fits just right, smoothing without creating lines; the whole thing minimizes lines everywhere, though you still have to be a bit careful about wearing just any old underwear underneath; and the legs are long enough that they don't ride up. I tried the shorter version of these as well, but didn't like those as much, since the legs didn't seem to stay in place as well. Still, the longer length seems fine for pretty much any dresses that I want to wear, and I have pretty short legs. The one thing you need to be aware of is that this isn't really shapewear. It might help smooth out your stomach a little bit, but it won't really flatten it at all. On the one hand, this means that it's really comfortable; on the other hand, it means that it may not meet all of your needs. Personally, I liked these enough that I actually wore them on my wedding day, prioritizing comfort a bit over flattening. The important thing is that I was able to walk around in a dress for hours in the hot sun with absolutely no thigh trouble at all. I can't really express how happy I am to be rid of thigh rub, and with an article of clothing that's no trouble at all to wear. It feels comfortable and natural. I'm sure I'll be purchasing more of these in the future.

I bought one of these, then bought the multipack later on, I liked the first set so well. They are very comfortable. Not too tight, and they (mostly) stay in place. I bought them to wear under a hiking skirt, and they are perfect for that. Not too hot to wear on a hot day. They don't feel wet even when you perspire. They keeps your legs from chaffing. And if you are modest, and happen to stumble and fall, they are not too awful to be seen by a stranger who witnesses the unfortunate event. The legs do creep up slightly when you hike uphill, but they were not uncomfortable when that happened. I mention the creeping only in the interest of full disclosure. They wash well and easily line dry overnight. I'm going to take them on a long backpack trip, later this summer.

I love the look and ease of dresses, but in the warmer months I hate the sticky, sweaty feeling of bare legs under a dress. These are the perfect solution with the added benefit of coverage you'd get from a regular slip. This variety I like better than the original Skimmies because the fabric has more of a slick texture that skirts can glide over (the originals are more microfiber feeling and I've had skirts cling to it). They are very comfy and you can stretch or not stretch the legs to adjust the length depending on how long your skirt is. I do find the waist bunches up from sitting but not so badly that it creates a bad look under clothes. I can smooth it back easily. I'd definitely recommend trying a pair if you want to avoid sticky legs in the summer! As far as sizing, I wear an 8-10 in pants/dresses and the L size fits comfortably - not too tight or too loose.

This has got to be the most useful item I hsve ever bought! That's high praise from me. Ive worn this to smooth under a tight fitting skirt and it did the job while letting me breathe. I also wore it under a bridesmaid's dress in an outdoor wedding in 90 + degree weather and it saved my legs. Never rolled down or up and was extremely comfortable for kicking it on the dance floor for 5 hours ( I repreat 90 degrees and flippin outdoors with no shade)!!! By the time everything was over I was drenched and melted but these spanx or whatever you call them stayed in place and kept my legs chafe free. Im also plus sized usually wearing a size 18 and the 2x was perfect in these. I would rate higher than 5 stars if I could!! To note, there is no easy bathroom access for these but I had very little trouble pulling these up and down.

I'm so used to shapewear that digs and cuts into you so I went up In size and they very super comfy but kept sliding down at the waist. I am 5'7, a 33 waist and 41 hips and 25 thighs and ordered xxl so I wouldn't have the waist too tight and the thighs squeezing but that wasn't necessary. The material looks and feels like something you would use to make your 6 year old a Halloween costume but as soon as I put these on I felt like I wasn't wearing anything! And I hate underwear! I was truly impressed! I was so disappointed when I saw that the tag said mid length because I already anticipated my legs looking like 5 pounds of Bologna in a one pound bag where the leg seems ended but nope! Didn't happen! What kinda witch craft is this!! Lol I am going to put pics up Of my legs with and without because I hate seeing great selling items with a million reviews and no pics and it's only shapers and undies that no one wants to share! Common ladies, help a girl out! I'm putting my fat flabby legs on display for the greater good of all women and so should you! 😊 Take that selfie, show and tell us what you think and delete that pic from your cell phone and iCloud before you let your significant other go through your phones! 😉 Hope this helped!

I ordered 2 pair of these for a vacation that was in both hot weather and required skirts. I am not a thin girl but I am not obese either. I bought these 2 help with thigh rubbing which I imagine is probably the number one reason most women by these type of underwear shorts. I had such high hopes for these to replace my old school " bike shorts" I've had for years. These were lightweight and comfortable at first. They fit well. However, the legs rode up which made them more uncomfortable than actual thigh rubbing. I seem to remember one pair rolling up really bad and the other one just sort of coming up but I still constantly felt the need to pull both legs in both pairs down. They also came pretty high in the front. not below the belly button as shown in the picture. this seemed to make me a little bit hot in the stomach area.

Oh. My. Goodness. I’m so in love. I’ve worn Spanx for a few years under dresses, but these? They Spank the Spanx, hands down. If you just need a sheer short to wear under dresses/skirts, and want to keep friction to a minimum - this IS your bag. If you want full compression shapewear, these are not for you. However, there is a little smoothing with these, which is really nice. The band DOES NOT ROLL (make sure you order the correct size. I’m a solid 18 and went with a 2XL). The legs don’t creep. My skin can breathe. And, you don’t sound like a walking warmup suit or polyester diaper (seriously - not even a whisper of noise). Now I’ve been wondering what other miracles are out there that I’ve been missing all my life! Seriously. If you’re just trying to keep your thighs from rubbing together and want to forget you have shorts on under your dresses, get these. Excellent price for being this comfortable!

I really wanted to like this, but unfortunately, it just doesn't work for me. It looks a bit small coming out of the package, but it actually turned out to be too large because it stretches way too easily. It stayed in place for a few hours, but after that, the legs started riding up. When out in public, there's not much you can do about that, so I had to walk around with the legs uncomfortably bunched up. The fabric does not wick at all and is way too thick. I found the material itself is so thick it was too hot and actually caused me to sweat more. And as I already mentioned, it is not made of wicking fabric. When I began to sweat because the material was too thick, the moisture was not pulled away from my skin at all. Bottom line, it's fine for a few hours on a cool or cold day, but it is definitely not something to wear for an entire day when it's warm out.

I would recommend these to anyone wearing a dress, especially during the summer. They were very comfortable and worked as expected.

I wish I’d discovered these sooner! They prevent sticky thighs in summer & add warmth in winter. I got married in winter and wore them under my dress. Supremely comfortable and fit like a dream.
