That is, the outer part of the thigh in this model is as bare as possible, and only the front and back parts of the torso are covered. The side part in hips can vary from 9 to 20 cm along the seam line. Thus, the bottom edge of the panties is at the level of the crotch. Often the hips model is used to create swimming trunks. In this case, instead of regular knitwear, fabric with elastane is used.
Jocky – this version of boxers has an even narrower side part. It now reaches sizes up to 8 cm. The fabric in this model should fit tightly to the body.
Family panties

This is due to the fact that they are comfortable, they do not exert excessive pressure and the air passes through them unhindered.
