Knickers Review Part 2: Comfort, Support, and Fit

My new knickers test drive occurred from 8 a.m. until 8 p.m.

Test score (final analysis) for anyone who may be interested in trying this product (from Amazon) is as follows.

Ratings on a scale of 1 (lowest) to 10 (highest).

Comfort = 9

I gave this a 9 rather than a 10 because I would have liked the legs to be a bit longer but still very comfortable.

 

Support = 10

I allowed a bit of air in the bag as well as a tad of baby oil and there was no pancaking - support was great and comfortable.

 

Eliminate add-ons = 9

I gave this a 9 as I did have an add-on… I wore a pair of nylon underwear for smooth material against my skin but this may not have been necessary.

 

Minimize bulge = 7

These underoos certainly help to minimize my bulge, allowing my tee shirts some extra room as well.

 

Bottom line (pun intended) I will continue to wear tights or skinny jeans on a daily basis around the house as they are supportive - however, this new garment will be my definite GO-TO-UNDERROO in the future when I get all gussied-up to go out… a great wardrobe addition providing good support, a bit more confidence in terms of security and almost - not quite - a pencil skirt appearance.

As a side note (heads up Alex) this garment comes in black as well. All kidding aside, I have seen posts where our gentleman ostomates have made good use of products that weren't necessarily designed for men but I say as a fellow ostomate WHATEVER WORKS!!! jb

Please remind JB what the specific product you are reviewing is [a product link to include a specification - for those outside of the US, residents elsewhere may find a variance in supplier/product]. Thank you so much xx

Hot damn, I’ve been told black looks good on me. 👍😁

I hear ya Jayne, even way over here in the United States 😁. I did not mention the name because I felt it may be inappropriate to be advertising products on this site and wonder if it is frowned upon by those who monitor our posts? With that in mind, I was afraid my post would not appear. I am not sure about the rules on this site. In any event, for your viewing pleasure, here is the complete scoop… if this appears in today's post, I will consider it acceptable or possibly hear otherwise by other members and/or administrators.

Also, I never post links… too dangerous in today's scammer world…

Thanks for your response, which may help to spotlight and clarify some posting rules. jb

Thank you for posting this review and a pic. I’m going to give these a try!

Hello.  I'm 81 (almost) and have been an ostomate for 3 years this March.  My daughter-in-law got me an ostomy support belt.  It is double layered and fits and feels very good.  Comes in black and I wear it when I go places away from home.  At home, I just pull up my sweats and put my pouch between my undies and sweats or jeans.  Works for me.
