Hi all,
I’m going on a backpacking trip in a month, and the only tucking underwear I’ve ever heard of is LeoLines and TomboyX, but I might as well ask if there’s anything else. Bonus points if it uses a material like merino wool.
I use both brands for normal daily use, but Leolines is made from cotton and TomboyX is polyester, both of which are not great for temperature and odor control during outdoor trips.
Tucking the old-school way sounds super confusing, so I’d rather not resort to that.
I tuck for comfort, not for looks.
hm, I don’t see a way I could tuck comfortably for a hike. I get rashes on my skin if I even just wear my bra too long after a run, so this might be more a me problem. I can’t wear closed-toed shoes longer than a few hours without risking a rash. Same with underwear, I have found it causes rashes on my lower back if I wear it all day, though women’s underwear tends to be better for this - I don’t think it would be when sweating and being active.
Another difference with me: I have had an orchi and my genitals were small to start with and don’t really move around much. I don’t love the remaining scrotum and sometimes it can give me a sickening dysphoria if it slaps against a thigh (🤢), but it’s not as problematic as before.
So, I generally don’t wear any underwear when I run or hike, etc.
I guess when it’s cold enough I do wear leggings that have a mild tucking effect, but maybe not enough for girlies with larger bits.
