> [@puzzlegal](#): > > Some of my underwear has pronounced seams, and i realized several years ago that it’s more comfortable if i wear it with the seams out, not against my skin. When I was [driving my sports car on track](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/ask-the-high-performance-driving-instructor/354791) I had driving gloves with the seams outside for that reason.

Especially dark ones. Minimizes the opportunity for cat hair to collect on the public side. For the sake of this thread, we can distinguish between t-shirts, which are worn on the outside, and undershirts, which aren’t. I still turn my t-shirts right side out after laundering, although I might follow @ThelmaLou’s advice if I had a cat. > [@ThelmaLou](#): > > I’ve been dying to share that with someone.
