FAQ: Women's Underwear
What are the longest-lasting types of women's underwear?
The longest-lasting types of women's underwear use durable fabrics like organic cotton or Tencel, with reinforced seams and minimal elastic. These materials help them stay comfy and functional for years. Simpler cuts like briefs or boyshorts tend to last longer too, as they don’t put as much strain on stitching. Fancy lace or extra trims might look lovely but don’t go the distance. Some brands even offer repairs or lifetime guarantees, which is worth looking into. Curious how we handle quality checks?

How should I wash my underwear to keep it in top condition?
To keep your underwear in top condition, wash at 30°C using a gentle cycle and pop them in a mesh laundry bag. A mild, bleach-free detergent will do nicely, and it’s best to skip the fabric softener, as it breaks down elastic. If you can, air dry instead of using a tumble dryer – your knickers will thank you. Hand-washing works wonders for delicates too. Treat your undies well and they’ll last longer, whether they’re everyday pairs or our long-lasting knickers. Need more care tips?

Are organic cotton knickers better for sensitive skin?
Yes, organic cotton knickers are better for sensitive skin - they're free from pesticides and harsh finishes found in standard fabrics. Soft and breathable, they help reduce irritation and keep things feeling calm down below. Many people find issues like itching or thrush ease off after switching to natural fibres. The bonus? They tend to hold their shape and softness after many washes. A smart, gentle pick for daily comfort.
Which underwear styles are most comfortable for daily wear?
The most comfortable underwear styles for daily wear include briefs, boyshorts and mid-rise bikinis. These give solid coverage without digging in, especially when made from breathable fabrics like bamboo or organic cotton. Seamless versions work well under fitted clothes, though they may not last quite as long. For top-notch comfort, look for smooth waistbands and double-lined gussets. Explore our full range of comfy, sustainable options in the women’s underwear collection.
Do seamless underwear styles hold up over time?
Seamless underwear styles can hold up over time, but it’s all in the quality. Look for pairs made from long-lasting fabrics like bamboo blends or microfibre with sturdy stretch. Because seamless edges are usually heat-bonded, they can fray quicker if tumble-dried. A cold wash and air dry helps them keep their shape and elasticity.
