I workout with leggings and wonder which option reduces whale tailing.

A string’s waistband is much thinner than a thong’s. Does this mean whale tailing happens more often with strings than with thongs? If the waistband is not a string, but a wider piece of fabric, the piece should stay where it should be longer than a string and the waistband won’t ride over my hips when I workout, jump or stretch.

Is this how it works?

I’m skinny and don’t have wide hips or waist, if that makes a difference.

    As a dude who wears thongs while they are still taboo in America at least, I go through great effort to make sure they are not showing. Strong or thong it doesn’t matter. Pants are the normal culprit. Some thong/string brands tend to get looser and ride higher than others, but can always be fixed by pants that for proper.

      There don’t seem to be many brands that market men thongs and strings. Do you find good quality and durable undies for you?

        MeUndies does a great men’s thong. For strings I had to just use Amazon and get whatever highest rated store from China is making them that month. Also dont be afraid to get womens panties for thongs and strings, they normally use better and softer materials and it’s way cheaper. Just check reviews and normally there are some reviews from guys.
