If you’re a loyal reader or follower on Facebook, then you
have heard me talk at length about my love of ExOfficio clothing and
accessories. My husband and I could simply live in their dryflylite shirt
series. With so many different styles and colors, you always look great and
have something for any occasion. So, you can only guess how excited I was for
the folks at ExOfficio to offer me a pair of their pretty new Give-N-Go® Lacy underwear to
review. Seeing as how I also have a matching Give-N-Go Lacy Tank, I figured it
would be a great pair to review together.

| Give-N-Go Lacy Full Cut Brief |
Often, I am not a fan of full-cut panties, simply because they
can be unflattering and give you panty lines. Attractive! Instead of going for
the low-rise bikini or even the thong options, I decided the true test of
ExOfficio’s women’s line would be the full-cut brief version. I was actually really
surprised by them when they arrived, because not only were they pretty (both of
my pieces are the light grape color you see in the photos), but when on, they
actually did give you full coverage
and fit a bit more like a boy short, so they don’t roll down your stomach and
no VPL! So far, so good! The other thing you have to know is how lovely the
fabric feels against your skin. I have worn both pieces out during the day
(under clothing, of course) and also have worn them to bed as pajamas. The
pieces fit your curves in just the right way, have a bit of stretch, feel silky
inside and out and always feel cool to the touch. I don’t know how that is, but
I suspect that the moisture-wicking property of the fabric has something to do
with it.

| Give-N-Go Lacy Tank Top |
Not only does the Give-N-Go line keep you from sweating, but
the fabric (94% Nylon and 6% Lycra Spandex)
is thin and durable, quick-drying and odor-resistant. Who doesn’t want odorless panties? Because when you’re tromping through
the heat, you still want to feel fresh and clean.
Now, when you’re on the road or
even in a hotel room, you sometimes find that you need to do laundry where
there are no facilities, so hand washing in the sink comes into play and you
HOPE that everything will be dry in the morning, so you can either pack it to
go home or wear it the next day. All ExOfficio undergarments come
with the saying: “17 countries. 6 weeks. One
pair of underwear. Okay, maybe two.” This is a big claim for the durability and
quick-dry ability of one pair of underwear. Fortunately, they can back up their
product, because after washing these by hand, wringing them out and hanging
them up, they were dry and ready to go the next morning…and probably could have
been put back on a few hours later. The same with the tank. I’ve had cotton
thongs that were hung up to dry and still slightly damp eight hours later. You
can seriously buy two pairs of ExOfficio underwear, throw them in your bag and
alternate wearing and washing them as long as you travel. They make packing
light even more simple!

I know I wasn’t asked to review
the men’s underwear as well, but my husband has an entire drawer full of
ExOfficio boxer briefs and he is not one to want to spend good money on many
things. After trying out a pair I bought before a long trip we were taking, he
immediately bought another three pairs. Each time there is a sale, he buys more
to replace other underwear that aren’t ExOfficio and throws them out. In fact,
he’s bought and thrown out underwear that have worn out in the time he’s been
wearing the ExOfficio boxer briefs that still look brand new! We keep several
pair in the travel bag at all times, too. On trips, they wash well and dry
quickly, plus the moisture-wicking quality makes chafing a thing of the past! I
think it really speaks to the quality of a product when a customer goes back to
purchase more time and again. Below are just some of men's styles they carry.

So, the durability and pretty
look of the lacy Give-N-Go undergarments for women get a big thumbs-up from me.
The fact that they are comfortable, “Technically Sexy” and don’t ride up are
also big pluses. I will definitely purchase several pair for travel and home
and highly recommend them to you. We can also recommend the men’s line for male
travelers, too, for comfort, look and endurance.
