AussieBum – TrackyDak Pant – Marle Grey – M

082

Material: 98% Cotton, 2% Viscose, which is SUPER SOFT OMG. The thing is, while it’s super soft and somewhat stretchy, it’s not super stretchy by any means. This means that the “tapered design” can cause some issues depending on your proportions… But it will always feel amazing even if the fit isn’t great.
Aesthetic: I mean, they’re grey trackies/sweatpants… We all know what grey sweatpants are good for. 8) This pair in particular is designed for a bit more of an athletic look, with less bulk and a tighter fit, and I think it pulls that off quite well – almost too well!
Waistband: Tall and sleek with a tube through the middle of the waistband for the drawstring. A bit tight at times, but in an all-around way that doesn’t ever fell like it’s cutting into you at all; just generally snug I guess. Quite comfy honestly.
Pouch: Normally I’d say this is N/A for outerwear pants, because they’re generally designed to be flat thanks to the assumption that you’re wearing underwear beneath… But these are grey trackies we’re talking about, of course! The joke is that you go commando and show off a bit. ;3 The overall more-skintight design of these sweatpants means that you aren’t going to have anything flopping about at all, but that’s fine. The fabric is so soft that the snugness is still pretty damn comfortable. That said, I recommend wearing a C-ring of some sort, whether you want to be showing off your religion or not, because you’re probably going to want something lessen the amount of skin-on-skin contact between your junk and your legs that otherwise results from the revealing fit. I personally chose to wear an elastic C-strap that came with one of my older Mckillop bulge pairs.
Backside: There isn’t much of an ass to these pants, at least not by design; if you already have a good solid backside to show off, these sweats will do a good job of showing it off, but the softer your cheeks are, the more flattened-out you’ll look with these. Still, the tightness will still hold a nice curve even if you are a softer guy! So that’s night (but again it works better if you’re naturally more cake-y). And that all said, if you have curvy hips, it will show those of AMAZINGLY well! The backside also has a bit of visual interest with a back pocket on the right cheek. There is a tag in the back of the waistband that’s fairly large, but it’s not noticeable at all, and pretty soft.
Legs: The legs are the most telling part of these trackies to me. As mentioned above, they were designed with a “tapered design” in mind, I guess with the waist being the widest part of the person wearing them: from promotional material, they’re supposed to be only moderately snug on the hips and thighs, relatively loose around the knees, and then fairly skintight around the calves. I, clearly, am not the intended body type though! My hips and ass are far thicker than my waist, and my thighs are pretty big as well, so what happens when I pull them on is that they become skintight around my everything, which then prevents the bottom hems of the pants from coming up as high as they should because of how much they hug my calves, making the loosest part be a clumpy-ish grouping around my ankles. (Side note: the ankle openings are also difficult to get stretched over my actual ankles!) As moderately difficult it is to get them on, once they are on they are still quite comfy. They don’t look like they’re promoted to, but I still like the look anyway, so despite my apparent complaints above I do still quite like them all-around! While skintight, they aren’t constricting at all, and of course the material is very soft, especially on the inside.
Other: Like the SupaDupa brief… Who the F is naming these things? It’s like an old cartoon the way they name some of these products… Plus, TrackyDak also sounds a bit too much like Tricky Dick to my liking. Oh well!
Overall: 4/5 – I don’t want to knock these too much for the sizing issues, because aside from those, these are an amazing pair of sweatpants! I wonder if they would have been noticeably different around the thighs and calves if I had ordered a large instead of a medium…
