Clothes?? This is all new to me -what to wear?

I'm a 75 year old runner lady and 'wear pants all the time - even running tights in the fall and winter.

I have pajama pants I wear at home but as baggy as they are, they still have a big crotch seam.

What is next, harem pants with the dropped crotch?

That's ok for home but then what do you wear going out? Skirts? I haven't worn a skirt for years. Ugh.

Any recommendations on pants for street wear that won't pinch"down there?"

Thanks

P.S. What about undies. Even boxer shorts have got that darn seam.

Thanks!

    You'll laugh...I've started to play around with making my own undies. I googled on it and there are a few videos. One advocates making your undies from old t-shirts. Good, thick, soft cotton knit. I'm thinking you could build in almost like a quilted crotch..cuz sometimes all the vaseline and oils soak through my panties. I have a pair started (remarkably easy)...I chose an approach where there is only one seam down under. I wonder if you have to have the elastic in the legs??? If you made the legs more like shorts, could you dispense with the elastic legs???

    Not sure as I have not tried this but have you thought about buying men's solid weave underwear briefs like those in the "tommy john" commercial? Don't know where you are but those underwear don't seem to have any seams and are extremely flexible.
