quest for black cotton underpants, part trois

[flea]

I am wearing the latest candidate - black cotton/lycra from Gillian O'Malley, which is a sort of Target house brand I think. 3 pairs for $10 so the price is right.

They fit fine. The fabric is nice, though it feels less cottony than it is - I think it's 94% cotton. They are stretchy. They are black. The style is not ideal, being a little more granny panty than my ideal underpant would be. The elastic is decidedly wimpy.

I'm actually thinking of going back to the Victoria's Secret when they have their next underpants sale. The one pair that survived the Great Vickie's Secret Underpants Shopping Debacle of 2004 has been wearing well, and fits fine, and I like the style. I must just be sure to buy only size 6 in black, and to try them on, all of them, so as to avoid Debacle part deux.

I too am still deep in Underpants Dilemna. I ended up just picking up Jockeys, but I don't like them, they fit oddly around the leg, and are, of course, not all black. Or black at all.

I tried a pair of JCPenney's house brand boyshorts, but didn't like those either. And nobody sells my dip-front bikini style at all anymore, so I am unhappy with all the fabric on my belly.

Spent my allowance for it for the time being, so I guess next round I'll have to try string bikinis, as they're closer to my old style than what I ended up with. And what is wrong with people not selling 100% cotton?
