Glendas Information about Panties For Men

Due to the inability of clothing companies to make standard size womens' clothes we have made 2 charts. There seems to be a slight difference for womens clothes, that men do not have to deal with. That is the main reason women must generally try on clothes before purchasing them, and you men get tired of waiting for us. Remember if you fall in between the chart sizes choose 1 size bigger. I hope these charts will assist you in your quest for that perfect panty.

PANTY STYLES

Brief:Full-coverage, to-the-waist panty, cut low on the thigh.	Seamless: Panties knitted in one piece to provide a smooth, seamless fit.
Light Control: Everyday underwear with a touch of control for gently smoothing tummy, hips and butt.	Bikini (V-Cut, French, String): Skimpier styles with narrow sides, including V-cut (in front), French cut (with high-cut sides) and low-cut String (with string sides).
High-Cut Brief: A panty fitted to the waist and cut high on the leg to visually lengthen legs, minimize panty lines.	Hipster: A panty worn low at the hip bones and cut higher on the sides.
Thong:The barest, most body-conscious style, with center string or thong on back. Ensures no panty lines under most clothes.

IMPROVING THE BOTTOM LINE

Aside from being one of the most purchased and necessary items in a woman's lingerie wardrobe, panties come in a variety of styles to suit every fashion whim or need. Made of fabrics such as cotton, nylon, silk or lace.

SIZING IT UP

Panties are most often sized by numbers, as follows:

WAIST MEASURMENT	HIP MEASURMENT	PANTY SIZES
24-26	30-31	4
27-28	32-33	5
29-30	34-35	6
31-32	36-37	7
33-34	38-39	8
35-36	40-41	9
37-38	42-43	10

If measurement falls between two sizes, try the larger size.

Another sizing chart:

Panty size is determined by hip size.

HIPS (inches)	PANTY (size)
32 - 34	5
35 - 37	6
38 - 40	7
41 - 42	8
43 - 44	9
45 - 46	10

High rise briefs are also known as �Granny Panties�. This type of panty comes up to the belly button or higher, have a full and roomy seat and hits the thigh. These are the most conservative of all daily wear underwear, and are also the most comfortable. They're most often worn by younger girls during that time of the month, when, as we all know, comfort is the only thing that matters.

Why you would wear a thong: Thongs are usually worn to prevent VPL - Visible Panty Line � which we think is worse than wearing socks with sandals.

G-String Thong: G-String thongs are the type of thong that is strictly string, with no coverage. The least comfortable and something we both hate to wear.
Tanga: Tangas are a step up from your average bikini underwear, with nearly a full seat.
T-Back: T-Backs are very obviously named. They form a perfect �T� shape in the back.
Rio: This is the most popular style of thong, with straps that rise up on the sides, rather them going straight across the back.

Hipster / Boy short Ahh, this is my pair of choice. I absolutely LOVE hispter / boy short underwear. It's the most comfortable and fun type of underwear I've ever tried. This type of underwear provides a full seat and a cool, laid back sporty look. They're cut more like shorts, and are usually low rise. They're great to wear under jeans and for working out. They usually hit right at the hip, and have full coverage. The difference between hipsters and boy shorts is that boyshorts tend to have a bit of a leg in them while hipsters are cut off the the thigh.

For everyday wear: When you want to be comfortable and get good, cheap underwear for everyday use, I'd suggest you go to your local Target, Wal-Mart, or K-Mart, and any other large family store. The styles are adorable, and they have an array of styles and sizes. At those types of stores, you can get just about every kind of underwear you'd like, from bikinis to thongs.

For luxury / special wear: If you're looking for something extra girlie, sexy and fun, I would suggest hitting up stores that are lingerie specific. Victoria's Secret is a very popular choice, as well as Fredericks of Hollywood and La Senza. (We like the local Fashion Bug alot as it carries most brands, styles, and those naughty outfits we all know men love us to wear.) We have noticed that Wal-Mart is carrying more daring types of panties, as well as the other large Dept. stores.

We know some men will have a difficult time walking into the lingerie/underwear dept. at the stores and buying lingerie. We hope that you have a wife, girlfriend or other close friend to assist you. If panties are what you want and you need help, send us an Message with Panty Shy in the message and we can assist with buying, mailing etc.

The panty, and the shipping would be the actual cost and $5.00 for gas and shopping time, depending if it was a simple purchase.
