Underwear

We make women’s underwear in materials that keep their shape wash after wash and feel comfortable all day long. Our underwear should sit comfortably from morning to night and move with your body.

Underwear is what you wear most, so it should be thoughtfully designed for the best possible fit. A soft hipster or brief that sits comfortably without chafing, or a bra that gives support without feeling uncomfortable throughout the day. Material plays a big part, which is why we’ve chosen to make our underwear in soft cotton that stays soft, even after many washes.

Our underwear is made from materials that feel comfortable against the skin and last a long time. Cotton is the most common material because it breathes, is soft and stands up to many washes. Some styles include a little stretch for a comfortable fit, and we also offer underwear in modal for an extra soft, cool feel. Seams and elastic are designed to be comfortable all day.

Our underwear is made from soft cotton and cool modal – materials that hold up well in the wash but last longer if you wash them the right way.

Machine wash at 40°C with detergent – that’s enough to get cotton hygienically clean. Only wash at 60°C if the garment’s care label says so, or if you’ve been ill. All garments keep their stretch longer if you line dry them instead of tumble drying.

Machine washing step by step

• Sort whites and colours so the colours stay fresh, and fasten any bra hooks before putting them in the machine.

• Wash your underwear at 40 degrees unless otherwise stated.

• Use colour detergent for coloured garments and regular detergent for whites. Skip the fabric softener – it settles in the fibres and clogs materials that are meant to breathe.

We work with a few carefully selected materials so that our garments feel comfortable and last:

Organic cotton

Organic cotton is a soft, durable and natural material that feels good against the skin and gives an airy feel. Several styles have a small share of stretch for a better fit.

Soft modal

Much of our underwear comes in silky-soft modal jersey. Modal is made from wood pulp, wicks moisture away effectively, dries quickly and feels cool against the skin.

Whether you’re looking for underwear that won’t show under your everyday clothes, or underwear that feels comfortable through a day at work or a quiet day at home, we have something for everyone.

Choose garments that keep their shape, softness and breathability even after many washes. Explore Bread & Boxers’ full range of women’s underwear and feel the difference that well-designed basics make.
