A friend brought it to me last night. As for underwear, Hubster will be 60 soon, and he likes colours, in the briefer style - red, pink, with animals. We think it's fun. He even has thongs. He is quite fit, with long legs. I am 63, and love tap pants, very high cut legs on underwear, and thongs. I do exercise (swim, etc.), so knowing your underwear is snug helps make sure you exercise, stand up straight, and smile (LOL). I did dance for years. Now keep it simpler, but still exercise.

I haven't tried sewing it yet so hope you give lots of sewing information when you use this pattern. Growing up with brothers made me not care much about men's underwear choices-just happy they all wear some sort.mssewcrazyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08610005723483105088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1991166428290808171.post-91302608253176756942013-07-04T07:39:29.031-04:002013-07-04T07:39:29.031-04:00I think you can totally rock the pirate pants look...I think you can totally rock the pirate pants look Peter.
