lol thats awesome ^ ^
imagine though, that cisguys are worrying about something like shrinkage in cold weather?
well i wish i had to worry about that! i dont even have the right 'equipment' to be shrunk in the first place XD
If they sold the penis separately they would make an awesome, confy and affordable packer. :P
It says the packer is removable, it'd be worth it to get a pair just for that. And that's not a bad price for a packer that nice.
Actually, I saw another transguy on youtube talking about those a little while ago. You can also get these (http://www.andrewchristianshop.com/Retro-Brief-wShow-It-Tech-PID13080-9195.aspx) ones, which have a pocket in the front that guys are supposed to put their junk in, but apparently they're also great for putting packers in.
So yeah, could probably work pretty well for us. Of course, they'll cost you an arm and a leg. :P
I have an account on his website and they often send 20% off sale emails. Also you can usually find a pair with the show-it pocket for around $15 dollars plus shipping in the sale section. Still a lot but cheaper than not on sale. My uncle wears his brand and swears they last way longer than the average cheap underwear. I dunno I'm too broke to find out yet but thought I would mention it.
Ordered a pair, worth it IMO, I'll let you guys know how terrible/great they are.
I thought I'd point out that TranZwear is a lot cheaper than regular-priced Andrew Christian underwear and is comparable to the half-priced AC. But TranZwear is not as trendy, I guess.

I remember that there was a site with packers, harnesses, and underwear to pack with run by the wife (or girlfriend?) of a trans guy that had terrible customer service. Is that the same site?
I have show it briefs. I have a large bum so it doesn't cover as much as I would like. I really love the show it briefs, and it's got an awesome design. The underwear makes me feel awesome and smexy! Only need one or two for special occasions.
I don't know which site that could be, Nygeel. Mango had bad customer service...TranZwear is run by the guy himself (not his wife), and I've always gotten prompt, courteous service. He's super-nice, and he sponsors one guy a year as well--contributes to the guy's surgery fund.
Nope, not mango. The person that ran the site was also on youtube. At one point they stopped making and shipping out products without telling people. No e-mails returned, nothing.
The AC unders just arrived. Gave em a once-over and pulled out the packer to see what it is. It's a convex piece of cloth textured foam, a little bit of a pain to get back in the pouch but it looks fine.
Perfect fit in the waist, little tight in the legs, bulges a lot more than what I had been using but not in an obscene way (looks much more natural). Very much worth the price, IMO.
You can buy just the packer, it comes in white or black and costs $5 bucks plus shipping

I would say it's worth it if you want a little extra structure or if you don't want a whole packer.
Or if you want something lightweight when going swimming?
Hmm... now there's an idea... *walks off thinking*

Cheaper yet, use a sock, they also come in black or white and have multiple uses. That thing is not a packer so much as bulgy camouflage. Cut your own styrofoam and draw on it and you have what you are paying $5 plus shipping for. Tis a BIG waste of money.
