Everybody sweats. But, if you're feeling, um, uncomfortable down there, we're here for you. There's nothing worse than trying to power through a workout and obsessing over the less-than-dry situation you're aware of down under. If you don't own pairs of moisture-wicking underwear already, you may want to consider stocking up. These undies are made with material that pulls moisture away from your skin to keep that area cool and moisture-free.
Jenny Sugar, a staff writer for POPSUGAR Fitness, is a big fan of her wicking underwear, specifically the Knix Athletic Leakproof Boyshort. "It can absorb up to three teaspoons of liquid, whether it's from sweat, a little pee, or your period," she said, adding that her pairs "offer some peace of mind, and they're so silky, seamless, and comfortable." Not sure where to start? Read on for some grade-A options that promise freshness to thwart that cringeworthy unease.
