    Help a sister out - I have no thigh gap

    Which ExOfficio boxer briefs to the laydees (or, why not? the gents) here wear? Strech-N-Go or Give-N-Go?

    Help a sister out - I have no thigh gap

    I'll look out for that, as I presume it can be purchased here is Aus?

    Help a sister out - I have no thigh gap

    I will also try out some of the . I have chronic eczema and dermatitis so I am sure there will be trial and error. I actually do much better with petroleum-jelly and and silicon-based products; the "all-natural, plant-based" stuff is more likely to cause me grief. So the suggested brands are...

    Help a sister out - I have no thigh gap

    I have full length Skins leggings. It might be fun to buy a Purple Rain skirt to wear over the top of it... or not. I don't care about my butt being out there. #functionoverform

    Gym leggings instead of "hiking pants"

    Another vote for Skins that @Maxie suggested. They are very pricey but I have used my length A200 tights and sports bra for 3 years for regular workouts at the gym or basic 10km trail hikes. Add an Icebreaker merino tee and I'm set! But the best thing are the recovery pants and tops...

    Help a sister out - I have no thigh gap

    I don't have an issue with chafing thighs over the course of an ordinary work day, but over the course of a sweaty day the potential for discomfort/sorenesss/boils increases exponentially. People who are similarly blessed - what are your tips? Compression shorts? Short hose? Powder?

    Is there really a difference between men's and women's shoes?

    Were the Keen's your main shoe, @camino07, or did you alternate? Were they the sandle sort?

    Is there really a difference between men's and women's shoes?

    Funnily, I have some Keen's sandals. Or at least I think they could be called sandals as they are shaped like a regular sneaker with bits cut out of the sides. Super shoes. I think I bought them in DC on the way to Cuba where I spent a lot of time in the tropical forests. So comfy, too. I...

    Is there really a difference between men's and women's shoes?

    Those sneakers were definitely was not long enough. I had about a little wiggle roomn which mean nothing walking downhill. "But it will stretch", he told me. Nope. He was a college kid in a superstore and not a pro. But luckily I have made an appt with the brand rep in the outdoors store...

    Is there really a difference between men's and women's shoes?

    Apart from the respective lashings of navy blue and neon pink, I mean. At my last fitting for sneaks, the Canadian Adidas dude was horrified at my eagerness to try on a men's pair ( I do measure an impressive 41.5, after all). Our feet are appropriately different, he told me. As it turns out...

    Please help with my packing list - taking dresses - am i daft?

    You are my idol.

    Can we do some Pillow talk?

    Likewise. I do the same for my knees. I cover it in 2 pillowcases and use the first one to cover a hotel pillow if need be.

    any advice what sort of footwear - ?hiking boots

    Ah, you're probably right. Administrators, eh? ;)

    any advice what sort of footwear - ?hiking boots

    Well if they're good enough for the Aussie *insert paramilitary-police-defence-department-here*, they're good enough for me! :) On that note, do any women wear men's shoes/boots? I have wide feet and a large big toe, and always struggle with the chicks shoes that are foisted on me ion athletic...
