Katie Reviews Flingz – The Thongs For When You’re On The Go!

Anybody traveling via air knows that recent restrictions have made packing a challenge; most airlines now charge for each checked bag and impose a weight limit,so efficiency is key. As Katie does a lot of traveling, she decided to try out a pack of Flingz and see how they fared…

Get them at: Flingwear
Price: Individual Pair $7.50; Three Pack $18
Sizes: Small, Medium and Large

My DH and I just got back from 6 days and 3 hotels in Cabo San Lucas.  We needed fishing clothes, dinnerwear, beach gear, casualwear as well as the usual bits and pieces to fit in our large Timberland pack, and I can tell you this, it was great to be able to instantly put your hands on a clean pair of underwear, without the aggravation of digging through a well-packed bag! The fit was great, they’re washable, great quality (made of 95% cotton and 5% elastane), comfortable and eco-friendly, which was a concern, because I was under the impression that they were disposable – the thongs all have printed washing instructions on them and their website states:hand wash for best result. They wash great and dry quickly, leaving you with a clean pair and a clear conscience!

Could you do the same with thongs you already own or use the actual bio degradable paper thongs?  That depends.  A certain brand makes an anti-bacterial thong for about $25 a pair, Flingz are $18 for a 3 pack and are packed for you.  As for the paper disposable thong…Yikes!  I’ve tried them and I can’t think of a single good thing to say, since bunchy, uncomfortable and ugly don’t qualify!

The Verdict:
These are best suited for women who need a change of clothes away from home, like going to the gym or your modeling assignment; they’re great whether you are at home or traveling. Just remember your mother’s warning about always having clean underwear with you..
