(British) underpants.
(UK, slang) Underpants.
Skiddies is British slang for underpants, typically men's underwear. The term is informal and slightly crude, playing on the association with skid marks (the staining left inside underwear). It sits in the same register as 'grundies,' 'kecks,' or 'shreddies' as affectionate or jokey names for underwear. The register is laddish and informal; it's the kind of word you'd use among friends rather than in any formal context. Common in British English across age groups.
