Still Available, SOFFE Silkies I’ll show my age here and call them Silkies even though I know folks love to call them Ranger panties these days. Also, I don’t want to get caught with a “unsafe for work” tag if I title this entry with the p word. At any rate, no matter what you call them, the iconic SOFFE nylon shorts are still available and offered in a variety of colors. Silkies were unit issued PT gear in Army and Air Force units I was assigned to. Back in my day we wore them as underwear under our BDUs and would take our BDU pants off in the summer and just wear a Brown T-shirt and Black silkies with jungle boots or running shoes around the team room. If you had to get a uniform on quickly it was easy and this ensemble could be used if you ended up doing some impromptu PT during the day. You can even swim in them. www.soffe.com/products/original-ranger-panty Read the full article here
