For context on sizing, I’m 5'8'', 116 lbs, with a slight pear shape, and I bought my first two pairs (Size Small, Coffee) back in August 2025. I believe they are true to size.
I originally got these because I have some Alo leggings I absolutely love, but they would always crease in the front. I had tried some cheap Amazon inserts before this, but they felt like pure plastic and made me sweat like crazy.
These Jiv panties are a total game-changer for workouts. The padding is structured so you get absolutely zero creasing. I felt so comfortable going to the gym that I immediately bought two more pairs! They are absolutely perfect for a 1-2 hour yoga, Pilates, or strength training class. And, after all this time, none of them have stretched, they are still in a great shape!
**However, I do have a warning for anyone buying these:**
I highly recommend taking them off as soon as your workout is done. I wouldn't wear them for more than 5 hours for two reasons:
1. The padding can hurt over time: The pad has to be rigid to stop the creasing (which makes sense), but it gets painful if you wear it all day. I tried wearing them for a full day once, and by the time I took them off, I was physically sore down there.
2. They trap moisture: Because they are polyester, they absorb sweat but dry very slowly. If you leave them on post-workout, they stay wet, which can increase bacteria formation. This happens even if you live in a dry-non-humid area, so be aware!
Overall, these are…
