Introduction/Packaging

I received my Crotchless Rumba Thong W/Garter (Size 1x/2x)- Queen Size- from Rene Rofe in a clear plastic package with a picture that is no where near discreet. The model is topless and covering her bare breasts. She has on the rumba thong and some fishnet thigh high stockings. The packages states that these thongs are made in China. The packaging also has the information for the company on the back such as address, email, fax, telephone number.

Material

The packages states that these are 85% Polyester and 15% Spandex. The ruffle on the front of the thong is soft and non irritating. The size of the front ruffle panel is 7 inches in length.





The ruching on the back of the ruffle panel is also soft and did not itch me while being worn. The waist band is very comfortable and can easily stretch.





The material on the crotchless area is also non irritating.




I wish all thongs could feel like these. The garters are removable and while they are attached, they cause no problems with rubbing or itching. There is a black bow on the front of the thong, it measures about 1 inch wide. If you don't like bows, this one is completely easy to remove. There looks to be like one stitch holding it on.




The garter clips are a plastic type but they do not have the cheap feel to them. They look just as good with the garters as they do without them.





Sizing/Use

I ordered these in the size 1x/2x because of my hip size which is a 42/43. These fit well and provide lots of room and comfort. I would have to say that these may be one of my top crotchless thongs now.





The size 1X/2X measures 15 and 3/4 inches across unstretched. Stretched out to max, they measure 28 inches across. These are really stretchy! The crotch area measures 13 inches from seam to seam.



The garters completely expanded to the full length are 7.5 inches unstretched not including the garter clip. Add an inch for that. At the garter's shortest point, it measures 5 inches unstretched without the clip.


The garter clips seem to work well with these. These are not the best but surely not the worst that I have experienced. I used these with fishnets similar to the ones on the package to complete my look and they were a hit with my partner. He mentioned that these were a perfect look to the thong. These seem to be true to size. I am a size 13/14 mainly because of my bum and sometimes a 16 if the size runs small.

These seem to be a perfect fit for 14-16. A size 18 could probably wear these with no problem. I have added photos to show the measurements of the garters and the waist area.







Performance

These held up well during normal wear. They did not stretch out or fall down. The garters held well and did not come unsnapped. The garter clips did not come out, they stayed at the length that I needed. The crotchless part worked great with the opening. I sometimes wish that these were not crotchless because I love them wearing them around the house without the garters. The ruffles on the front are in a triangle pattern and are flirty and sexy. There are 9 rows of ruffles on the front of the thong.





Smell/Taste

These thongs did not have a chemical smell to them. Of course, I didn't taste these as they are lingerie.

Care/Maintenance

The packaging and the tag state to Hand wash in cold water and Do not bleach. Line dry. Do not iron and do not dry clean. To keep these in the best possible condition, I suggest washing in a cool water with a delicate detergent.

My experience with the crotchless rumba thong was exceptional. I was able to wear these at home around the house with no garters and these are still fitting enough to wear out on the town if you are brave enough! I am thinking of sewing up the crotch area since this really seems to be my only con. The opening seems to be big in that area from the front to the back. I don't really like that. The opening is too wide for me. You have to understand that I am a shorter female of 5'2" so this may only be a problem for me. If they do seem a bit huge in the opening, the two seams meet well in the middle and by looking, it seems like I would be able to do one single stitching down the middle to perfect these even more. One would say that with my well endowed male, I should leave the huge opening but I don't like it to hang, I like it to be snug, but once again. This may just be my issue. The opening is from the top of the back all the way until the ruffles meet.

These are still sexy. I had sewn the crotch area in the back and now I like these much better. They feel more comfortable now and I like them a lot more.
