Make sure you always wear nice underwear

Did your mum tell you the exact same thing?

“Make sure you wear nice underwear because when you get into an accident you don’t want the ambulance people see your tatty underpants with holes in them…”

I haven’t even lived with my parents for the better part of 30 years but I still have this ringing in my ears.

But still I can’t get to put myself to throw undies out… it seems such a waste! Not a problem - old cotton underpants are perfect as buffing rags for polishing shoes, boots (or in my case: leather bridles and saddles).

The undies I can’t recycle I keep for camping trips or international plane trips. I basically start the trip in my bad undies and toss them in the bin during my first stop over. (Yes…. I have clean underpants in my carry on bags! don’t worry.. ;) )

Nice undies doesn’t always mean that the pattern or the design is nice. It also comes down to the way the garment is created / built. For example - some G-strings are super uncomfortable and put a lot of pressure on your tailbone. Or even worse.. they ride up and downright hurt in places where you do NOT want to feel pain.

I didn’t realise how important underwear design is until I started importing Q-Linn sports lingerie into Australia. 

“Always wear nice underwear” started to get a whole new meaning for me… it’s not just about the looks - even though the Q-Linn range is just gorgeous. It’s mostly about comfort and performance.

After all, we are talking about sports lingerie here… these underpants need to stay in place no matter what physical activity you do. You do not want your undies riding up half way during a 50km cycling race.

Or when you’re training for a 160km endurance horse riding competition you don’t want to wear underpants with elastic that cuts into your skin. After 40km your skin has probably broken and starts bleeding by that point… very painful.

What is nice underwear?

Of course it matters when you wear the garment… a nice lacy matching bra and g-string set can be very nice for date night, or when you need that extra little confidence boost when you have to do a presentation in front of a large group of people.

I remember when I broke up with my boyfriend of 6 years years ago, the very first thing I did was buy a nice lingerie set. While I was trying it on and even when I paid for it all I could do was think… “This is for ME - he will never ever see this!…. yeah!”

When you play sports - or are exercising you have different needs. You don’t want to be aware of your underwear. You want to concentrate on your own performance, your training schedule or your competition. You want your underwear to wick moisture away from your body to prevent chafing. 

And you want underwear to be invisible under tight fitting sports outfits (lycra anyone??!?).

This is exactly what Q-Linn underwear does for you.. and more.
