Jockey Women's Micro Bikini

I like Jockey women's underwear! I have worn the Elance String Bikini for years. They are a nice thick cotton with strings on the side so they don't look too "matronly", and they never ride up. However, they do leave panty lines, and when I work out, the thick cotton of the Elance stays wet from the moisture. So I have been looking for some other underwear.I purchased 3 styles: 1) the Modern Micro Bikini, 2) the "no panty line promise" in Tactel (both the bikini and string bikini version), and the 3) Seam-free Sporties. The one awesome thing about all 3 versions is - none of them ride up!!! You won't spend all day tugging your underwear discretely out of your rear. And personally, I think that is the number one required thing in underwear. I don't want to have to "think" about my underwear! These underwear stay put!!!That said, let me compare the 3 here.Modern Micro Bikini: This is made of a micro-fiber type material throughout. It is soft and comfortable against the skin. It has a similar feel to the Seam-Free Sporties - but the cut is different. This Modern Micro is cut a bit lower on the stomach and on the rear. I do have a "pooch" and the Modern Micro hits just below my stomach pooch. But the Seam-Free Sporties hit above the pooch and instead of covering the pooch in a good way, it rolled down and under the pooch - thereby making my pooch look even bigger!Now for the rear, I do have a flatter rear (boy, a flat rear and a stomach that pooches - I sound fabulous don't I?!?) :) And the Seam-Free Sporties felt like they rose up to my back - they came up pretty high. Whereas the Modern Micro hit just in the right spot - covering my rear but not making me feel like I am wearing granny-panties.Seam-Free Sporties: As I mentioned above - a nice micro-fiber type material, but it is cut higher on both the stomach and the rear. So if you have a flat stomach and a round rear (first off, I am jealous!), then the Seam-Free Sporties would be good for you if you want a modest bottom that doesn't look like granny-panties.No Panty Line Promise in Tactel: First off, Jockey has failed in this promise - if you are wearing leggings, etc, the panty line will show. Now it is not bad compared to other panty lines - but I think they should rename the underwear to: the "Almost No Panty Line Promise"! :) The big difference between this style and the 2 above is the material. The Tactel is kind of a shiny synthetic feel to it. I don't love it. I prefer the soft micro-fiber to the shiny material. It does have a cotton-like crotch. The String Bikini version is more of a traditional bikini line - it is thinner on the side and does not come up as high on the rear. The normal Bikini version is a bit wider on the hip but it goes up much higher on the rear. (Higher than the Tactel String Bikini and the other 2 listed above!) It basically went almost to my back. So if you like a smooth/silky type of material, go for the Tactel. And if you want a lower cut, go for the string bikini version, and if you want a higher, more modest cut, go with the normal bikini version.Panty Lines: Of the 3, the Tactel had the least amount of panty line. The Seam-Free Sporty and Modern Micro had similar panty lines - not great, not horrible. I wouldn't wear them with leggings or tight cloth pants/skirts. I would wear them with skinny jeans or any other kind of material that is a bit more forgiving. (I go back to my Hanky Panky thongs for leggings and tight/unforgiving clothes.) All of the panty lines here are better than the Elance Cotton panty lines!Sizing: I wear a size 12-14 in bottoms, and the size-7 in all 3 styles fit me nicely. So many underwear these days are "one size fits all" - but you know it doesn't! It will fit a size 4-8 beautifully, but for the those of us on the smaller to bigger range, I like my underwear to have a size so that I know it fits "me"!Wash: I have always machine washed and hung dry. They say we can machine dry, but the material will last longer if you line dry.In Sum: I have returned the Seam-Free Sporties and the Tactel version and have kept the Modern Micro. And I am loving them! They are comfortable, do not ride up, don't have horrible panty lines and they fit me like a glove. I will update later as to how they wear over time, but right now I am one happy camper!I hope this review is helpful to you!

I used to swear by Jockey underwear as the only brand that reliably covered my generous booty. However, the quality of these has declined significantly in recent years. I used to not have to replace Jockey undies for at least three years. I finally decided to re-up a few months ago, and none of the new ones have held up. I washed them the way I always have--machine wash in a mesh bag on delicate in cold water, line dry--but the elastic is completely shot. Now, I'm pulling at them all day--and all night.It's too late for me to return them, so despite having spent nearly $200 to restock, I have a bunch of useless panties that are being donated and have had to restart the arduous process of finding a new, more durable brand. (I also feel like I am rewriting this review over and over for a lot of product categories, not the least of which is the travesty that is the new Marpac Dohm sound conditioner. But that's another review.)

For decades I wore Victoria's Secret cotton bikinis and loved them. But over the past several years, it seems VS (and most other brands) have changed the cut so that everything rides up in the back on me. I've been on a search to find a panty that doesn't ride up; has no visible line under my clothes, but still looks feminine and sexy. This is the panty. As a bonus, they wash and dry wonderfully. The only thing that would make them better would be the addition of some fun prints. Highly recommend.

This wasn’t quite as much coverage as I wanted and weren’t flattering to my particular body shape.But I do love the fabric so much. I’m happy that they have basically the same panty with a bit more coverage... the “micro-hipster.” It is perfect for me and more flattering.Just a note... I highly recommend washing these in cold and hanging to dry. I accidentally put one pair in the dryer and that pair lost the soft, smooth feel and is now a bit ratty feeling.I give the micro-hipster 5 stars.For many people this size might work great. Just not for me.

These Panties are softer than the other micro seamfree Panties, room up front to hold the boys in nice & softly, wide breathable unlined crotch, I would recommend. 38" waist sz 8 fits great.

These are the best fitting, most comfortable bikini cut panties I have found in ages. The fabric is smooth and soft, the rise in front and back is perfect, and the cheek coverage is ideal. They stay in place no matter what. I wear them everyday. I'm a 14-16, and the 7 fits perfectly. Highly recommend!

These are fairly comfortable and they definitely stay true to their no panty line promise. However, since they're not made of cotton, they definitely don't hide any odor if you get a little sweaty. I have a very sensitive nose so I can smell things like that but most people can't so if you don't have a sensitive nose, these are great! :D

Fit exactly as expected, very comfortable and excellent quality from Jockey. They also last MUCH longer when they are NOT put in a clothes dryer (keeps the elastic from breaking down under high heat and they dry quickly on a line or inside clothing rack) ~ will absolutely order again!
