goudgey 6 Report post Posted August 12, 2015 Hi all, Have just bought myself a Bauer TotalOne NXG girdle and haven't ever worn one with full gear before and I'm not sure how best/in what order to get dressed.When in normal pants I get dressed in the following order:Jock/garter combo > pants > socks > skates > shin guards (over skate tongues) > tape around shin guards > pull down pants to clip garters on to sock > pull up pants and tighten > the rest.With the girdle being a lot tighter fitting than the pants I'm not sure how successful I'm going to be using my current sequence of getting dressed when it comes to clipping the garters to the socks. What advice do you have? How do you guys/girls that wear girdles do it?Cheers, Mark Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fvecc 0 Report post Posted August 12, 2015 I believe the TotalOne girdle is the wrap around style (ie it totally disconnects in the front with velcro).So I think your process would look like this:jock/garter combo > socks > skates > shin guards (over skate tongues) > tape around shin guards > girdle > shell > the rest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MThockeydad 469 Report post Posted August 12, 2015 Why can't you go jock/garter combo > shins > socks/clipped > girdle > skates (lift shins, tie skates, pull shins/socks down over tongues) > tape around shin guards > shell > the rest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

althoma1 574 Report post Posted August 13, 2015 I do what MT suggested, but put the shell on right after the girdle and before the skates. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
goudgey 6 Report post Posted August 13, 2015 Problem I see with putting on the shell after the girdle is the shell attaches to the girdle at 3 points and attaching when wearing would be quite difficult. I'll give it a shot tonight though. Will probably need an extra half hour before the game to trial and error it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
althoma1 574 Report post Posted August 13, 2015 Putting the girdle on with the shell already attached should work as well.Jock/garter combo> shins> socks (attach them) > girdle with shell attached> skates > tuck tongues if desired > tape shins and then the rest.

Hills 712 Report post Posted August 13, 2015 So just to add to this because I do it differently and am weird... here is my routine.Jock/Garter > Girdle w/shell > socks > skates > shins > socks pulled up and done with garter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
goudgey 6 Report post Posted August 14, 2015 That's what I ended up doing Hills. Because you can open up the legs on the girdle and shell it was easy to drop the girdle/shell down over the shins in order to clip on the garter. Felt strange training in a girdle for the first time!
