I figured out why my first pairs of nylons lasted, but the others didn't...first pairs were "
body shaper" nylons; the weaker pairs were "contour top". Both were "George" brand (from Wal-Mart), but you can certainly feel the difference in strength between the two.
Also, thanks to Samanthaz for her suggestions about undies...I'd always used the cotton 5-packs, but decided to splurge based on her recommendations:
QuoteI don't buy underwear in packs. Like if you go to walmart or target and you can buy a 5 pack of hanes underwear. In just a matter of minutes they will stretch and lose the ability to hold everything in place and they'll stay that way until you wash them where they shrink back down. The stuff I buy is a little bit more expensive and off the rack (usually hanging up in packs of 3). They are still cotton, but more stretchy (like spandex) and hold things far better.
Got a 3-pack of these ("hipster" style, just 'cause I'm cool that way) and they are great! Much more likeable than just plain ol' cotton! Wore my junk tucked all day at work, no problems at all!
