The materials in our women's underwear
Cotton – Cotton is a natural fiber from cotton plants. It is a comfortable and strong fiber that breathes and absorbs water. All our cotton panties for women are made in BCI cotton. Better Cotton is an initiative that helps cotton communities survive and thrive while protecting and restoring the environment. Read more about Better cotton.
Polyamide – Polyamide is a durable, synthetic fiber that both retains its shape well and is quick drying. We use recycled polyamide and elastane in our Performance training panties, the mix means they are both flexible and have perfect stretch. Recycled polyamide is a material recovered from waste in our oceans, such as fishing nets and plastic mats. Leftover production waste is also used.
The material is super thin, soft and has a high breathability and ventilates moisture - really good properties for a pair of training panties simply.
Elastane - Elastane is a synthetic fiber characterized by its exceptional elasticity and ability to return to its original shape after being stretched or bent. It is often used in clothing and textiles to give stretch and flexibility to the material. Elastane is often mixed with other natural or man-made fibers to create comfortable and tight-fitting garments, such as workout clothes, swimwear and underwear. The unique properties of the material enable clothing to move with the body's movements and provide a comfortable fit without losing its shape over time.
Laundry advice for panties
Below are some practical tips on how to wash your panties so that they retain their high quality and fit for as long as possible.
• Wash at a low temperature
• Tumble dry panties on low heat or preferably hang them to dry - do not tumble dry workout underwear
• It is advisable to use a laundry bag when you wash underwear, to protect them a little extra
• Avoid fabric softener as it can wear out the shape and reduce breathability, especially when it comes to sports underwear
• It's a good idea to wash the panties on an adapted gentle underwear program if there is such an option on your washing machine
