It struck me as my friend and I were doing our 20m long run last Sunday, here we were in our performance socks, performance Lycra tights and performance T-shirts (and friend in his breathable jacket) that my pants were really soggy, and not through any leakage problem either before the titters start.
My friend confessed to going Commando, whilst I reported an unpleasant experience "South of the Border" on my first (and last) attempt at this on a long run on a hot sunny day - I walked like John Wayne for a week afterwards..
(plenty of other threads on this so don't even start..).
Anyway, does anyone know of any "wicking pants" that are available, and if so where and are they any good? Anything has to be better than a pair of damp M&S briefs!
I apologise in advance for the undoubted silly comments that will surely appear in the wake of this (at least semi) serious quuestion...

But this has been raised before - some proper answers amongst the depravity - scroll back if you have an hour or two to spare !
Lowe Alpine Dryflo - big knickers for boys and girls. Really comfortable. And they look good as well. You'll find them in walking/outdoor shops.

PHWOOOAR!
Mrs FF should have said PHWOOOAR by now - you're not wearing them on your head or something?
"When all else fails do a search first" will be my motto from now on. Found the Thread. The issue does seem to raise an huge amount of interest. TX for other replies, I'm looking forward to trying out some of these!
Of course the other alternative would be to fill you pants with silica gel to absorb any soggyness - you'd just have to buy a lot of electrical goods to get enough of those little sachets though...
I wear Speedo trunks, they seem to do the trick and also prevent 'unecessary movement' which can cause chafing.
None of the other TV shows have much of a plot so why should yours. Give your recent postings I wil be looking forward to it but will it have one of the old Channel 4 "red triangles"?
