Jockey Skimmies

Day1128 · ‎06-27-2010

I bought the TSV Jockey Skimmies. I wear them under pants, as I wanted a smooth, no VPL (visible panty line). Under my slacks I can see where the bottom leg opening ends on my leg. It's not extremely tight, but I do notice it. Not sure how obvious it might be to others. Has anyone else experienced seeing where the skimmies end when wearing under slacks? The skimmies fit well, but maybe I should have bought a bigger size....I bought the medium.

You don't say what size your body is. In Skimmies, I always buy size Medium, I'm 5'7" 120#, and I don't get any spillover at all. My sister is 5'5". 108 lbs and buys the Smalls. Hope this helps!

I bought the large and they are fine under skirts. I did try to wear them with slacks and as long as they are a straight leg (not skinny or slim leg) I am okay. I actually think these may be more for skirts and dresses than pants. I wish Jockey would make these in longer below the knee lengths for pants. Wouldn't that be awesome?!

I too wanted them primarily to wear under slacks because I don't wear skirts or dresses that much. I'm about a size 6 and usually wear small or xsmall in QVC clothing.

I bought the skimmies in a med so they are not too tight buy I too notice that I can see the line of the leg opening a little thru my pant as well.

@Day1128...yes, that is what my experience has been, plus the legs rode up on me....I purchased mine at an outlet store. The fabric is very nice but I would not purchase again. Oh, and I have purchased both sizes as per the suggestion from the clerk that sold me the first pair, the different size made no difference.

The only thing I found that did not show the line was spanx line at Target, they are longer...ike to me knee...no visible line with that product.

@Mom2Dogs is the Spanx compression or more like the Jockey skimmies? I don't like to wear compression foundation garments so I was wondering if they are comfortable?

A size larger might give you more room in the thigh but I don't believe that will help you with your problem. I don't have the Jockeys, I have another brand that I wear under my maxi skirts and dresses on hot summer days. I never tried them with pants because I'm sure the leg line would be visible. If you notice the line under pants...others will too.

Why is underwear sizing so difficult?! I personally am an extra small small in clothing but yet when I'm buying undies? I pick up a large LOL I bought the mediums in the skimmies and they're perfect

@KentuckyWoman...I would say the compression is more but I always purchase up a size so I don't feel squished....the fabric is more like hosery. Not near as nice as the jockey brand but for me works better. I can wear the jockie brand under a flowy skirt or dress...but they still ride up between the legs.
