3 pairs bamboo long leg underpants black - navy - gray

Three pairs of bamboo long leg underpants in black, navy and grey

Long leg underpants solve a concrete problem: thighs that rub against each other, and leg edges that ride up during the day. The leg goes some way down the thigh and stays there, and that is why this is the style people choose for long walks, warm days and work where you are on your feet. The pack contains one pair of black, one pair of navy and one pair of grey, in sizes S to XXL.

Why long legs

A longer leg puts a smooth layer between the thighs, so skin does not rub against skin. That is the most important reason why the style exists. The second is that the leg does not roll up, because it ends further down, where the thigh is narrower. Together that means you do not have to adjust anything during the day.

Seams on the inside of the legs

The seams sit on the inside of the legs, where they do not rub. On a style with longer legs that detail matters more than on any other, precisely because the fabric lies on the part that moves the most.

In summer and in winter

The style is used just as much in July as in January, just for two different reasons. In summer it is the leg between the thighs that makes the difference between a good and a bad day in shorts or thin trousers. In winter it is the extra piece of fabric on the thigh that holds the warmth under jeans and suit trousers, without the need for long johns.

Under your trousers, and what it does

A smooth layer between skin and trousers makes the trousers drape better and stops them catching on the thigh, and that applies both to suit trousers and to jeans. The bamboo viscose was chosen because it is both smooth and moves moisture away from the skin, so it evaporates instead of staying put. The properties of the fibre are gathered under benefits of bamboo viscose.

The fabric

The underpants are made of 70 % bamboo viscose, 25 % organic cotton and 5 % elastane. The cotton gives the fabric body, so the legs do not go limp, and the elastane keeps them close to the thigh, which is what makes them stay in place.

The certification

The underpants are OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified under cert. no. BJ020 142441. Every component has been tested for harmful substances, and what the certificate covers is set out under what OEKO-TEX Standard 100 means.

Three colours

Black, navy and grey cover what an ordinary wardrobe consists of, and all three can be washed together. With one pair of each you can work out which colour gets used first, before you order more.

Washing

Wash at 40 degrees together with the rest of your dark clothes, avoid fabric softener, and let them air dry. Long legs dry a little more slowly than short ones, but bamboo viscose still dries faster than cotton. All the advice is under washing and care.

Size and the rest of the layer

The model comes in sizes S to XXL. Choose your usual size, and go up if you are in doubt between two. More packs and styles are under bamboo underpants, and if your upper body is to have a similarly thin layer, you will find the long sleeved styles under long-sleeved bamboo T-shirt.
