Garter boyshorts - shorts discontinued by Leg Avenue - review by Jul!a

The packaging is your basic cardboard getup from Leg Avenue. The front has a front shot of them being worn and the back has a rear view. The back also gives you sizing information, material content, and care instructions. You can also find all of that information on a tag inside the panties. These are 92% Polyester and 8% Spandex, and should be hand washed in cold water and drip dried. They feel very similar to other underwear I own, and I would feel comfortable running them through the washer as well. However do that at your own risk.

From here you can buy them in either a S/M or a M/L. I got the smaller option, which means that I should have 34-38" hips. The top of my hips where my pants normally sit is about 34" around, and the widest portion of my hips around my butt is about 38" around. Even around the widest part of my butt they were comfortable and didn't dig in, so if you're on the cusp between sizes you could order down I think.

You're only getting one piece here; the boyshorts with attached garter straps. The shorts are about 12 1/2" across the waist band before being stretched and stretch up to about 17" across, although at that point I think they'd dig in quite a bit. When they're just laying flat, they look more like just a full coverage brief, but have more of a shorts appearance when being worn. There's adequate coverage all the way around; from the front (3 1/4" across the crotch), to the sides (4 1/2" tall), to the rear (approximately 16" across unstretched at the top of the leg openings). If you're in the group of women who prefers their undergarments to cover the whole booty, then these are going to be a good choice for you. There is no crotch liner, but everything is completely solid and will catch most discharge while being worn. You could also wear another pair of smaller underwear underneath these, although the material is thin enough that you'd probably see the panty lines.

With these panties you also get a set of garter straps attached to the legs. They're sewn right into the hem of each leg opening, although they can be easily removed if you'd rather just have the pair of panties. They each measure about 4 1/2" from their shortest and extend to about 8" in length. The strap is a stretchy webbing, and the adjusting clips are a unique design. Unlike most which adjust similar to how a bra strap might, these feature metal clips that you lift to adjust, and then just lay them back down to keep them in place. The clips that hold the stockings have a solid plastic backing and go into metal inserts. There's a ribbon around the clip that hide it and make it look a little classier, but if you find it getting in the way you can easily remove that as well.



Everything here feels like it's of top notch quality. The panties themselves have a wonderfully silky feeling to them, and they almost always feel cool to the touch. I found that they did breathe fairly well under jeans, and didn't have any problems with my vagina feeling like it needed air. An additional cotton panty liner would have been nice, but it wasn't a make or break for me on this. The garter straps and clips give me the impression that they're going to be around and functioning for a long time as well. I think the only part of this whole getup that I think may fail are the ribbons around the garter clips.

Here's some pictures showing how they fit on me.

These are seriously as comfortable as real underwear would be, and I think it would actually be worth buying a few pairs just to remove the garter straps and wear them as actual underwear, since they'd still be a reasonably priced pair of panties. I really like wearing them, even under jeans. Aside from moving the crotch to the side, there's no good way to have sex with these on while still being able to keep your stockings up, but it'd also be pretty simple to make these into crotchless panties too if you wanted.
