You hear us rave about our cellulose fabrics all the time. Here's why:
Cellulose = tree fiber = ultra-breathable.
We use TENCEL™ Modal for our outer fabric and TENCEL™ Lyocell for our inner lining—both of which are cellulose (tree-derived) fibers known for their breathability.
A fabrics’ breathability depends on properties like:
-
Moisture-wicking
-
Temperature control
-
Air flow
These factors impact comfort, but also bacteria growth—which is especially relevant for underwear.
Most undies are made of suffocating synthetics like polyester and nylon. We think your hoo-ha (and the environment) deserves better.
TENCEL™ has earned the EU Ecolabel for their high environmental standards throughout the fiber lifecycle. This includes innovative water-conserving production methods and sourcing from sustainably managed and renewable forests.
Our Signature Mineral Lining
TENCEL™ uses a closed-loop process to create the useable lyocell fibers for our signature liners—meaning over 99% of the water and solvent is recovered and reused in the next cycle!
Then we add a specialized lyocell fiber spun with pharmaceutical-grade zinc oxide—a skin-soothing mineral with inherent antimicrobial properties. Since it’s embedded into the fabric, these benefits remain wash after wash.
Finally, we add a touch of spandex for better fit, function and longevity. More stretch & recovery means your undies are less likely to tear, rip or lose their shape over time.
Undies that last longer? A win-win for you and the environment!
Comfort first
On top of the environmental and breathable benefits, our cellulose-based fabrics are known for their super-soft, frictionless feel. Not only is this just more comfortable to wear, but the smooth surface helps limit sensory overload for your most sensitive regions.
Our philosophy? Better fabrics make better undies.
