    I am thinking about trying out volleyball shorts for use as pole shorts.

    Has anyone tried volleyball shorts? They seem to be the right fit and length and actually come in some pretty cute patterns too!

    I say why not? I buy ‘sport underwear’ to use as pole shorts. I just bought a 2 pair pack from Target for $10! I am tempted to buy some Under Armor sport underwear for pole shorts.

    I’m always on the hunt for pole shorts. I think Volleyball shorts will work great. I found some good shorts at lululemon but they are really expensive. Amazon has some cheap short shorts and volleyball shorts. I’ve ordered from before and was happy. http://tinyurl.com/25csjay I also just ordered a pair of shorts from http://www.sweetvixencouture.com/home.html and should arrive soon. Everyone I spoke too that has a pair from there is very satisfied.

    Momma…some of my favorite pole shorts are either the Gilligan O’Malley Seemless Boyshorts from Target ($9.99/2 pair)

    or the Hanes Boyshorts (though I have been having problems finding these lately).

    Target has different color ones depending on the season but beware of the lighter color ones as they are kinda see through.

    I just saw these at Kohl’s, too, and might have to investigate. They are Warner’s No Pinching No Problem Boyshorts:

    Those are the ones I just bought! They had the lighter purple colors but I was worried about that as well.

    I think im stopping by the Under Armor Outlet and checking out thier ‘shorts’. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_lol.gif

    I always wear hot yoga shorts — I had a bunch from Bikram and found they’re perfect for pole! My favorites are the Mikaela and Betty shorts from Mika (mikayogawear.com) and the side string shorts from Shakti (shaktiactivewear.com.) I give all my workout shorts the "standing bow" test in front of a mirror for gaps. I have never been 100% happy with "boyshorts" for classes, just feels too casual.

    I have a couple of pairs of volley ball shorts that I use for pole. They work great. I got them at Dick’s and they come in a ton colors/patterns. I got purple leopard and purple/blue swirly. Another pole buddy got a blue giraffe print. Super fun!
