3 black bamboo hipster panties

Three black bamboo hipster briefs

There is one model customers buy again when the first pack is worn out, and it is usually the black hipster. It sits on the hip, covers fully at the back and goes with just about everything else you wear. This pack contains three identical black hipster briefs in a soft bamboo quality, for women, in sizes S to XXL.

The everyday model

The hipster lands midway between what covers too little and what covers more than necessary. The waist sits low enough to disappear under ordinary trousers and high enough not to roll. At the back there is full coverage, so no edges appear under close fitting fabric. It is the combination that means this particular model ends up being worn more often than the others in the drawer.

A broad elastic that stays in place

The waistband is a broad, sewn on elastic, and that is the detail that decides whether a brief lasts. The width spreads the pressure instead of gathering it on a narrow strip, so there are no marks after a long day, and because the elastic is sewn on, the waistband does not lose its tension after the first few washes. The side seams hold the shape, so the brief does not twist.

Black stays black

Black underwear only gets old when the colour goes. If the briefs are washed at 40 degrees together with the rest of your dark clothes, without fabric softener and with air drying, the black stays deep instead of turning greyish. The smooth surface of the bamboo viscose helps, because it does not fray and form the small light pills that make black cotton look worn.

The fabric

The briefs are made of 70 % bamboo viscose, 25 % organic cotton and 5 % elastane. The bamboo viscose leads moisture away from the skin, so it evaporates in the fabric instead of staying put, and dry fabric stays fresh for longer than damp fabric. That is the reason the fibre works better for underwear than pure cotton, and the background is found under is bamboo antibacterial.

The certification

The briefs are OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified under cert. no. BJ020 142441. The whole product is tested for harmful substances, elastic and sewing thread included, and for black underwear that is especially relevant, because dark colours require more dye than light ones.

Three identical is no coincidence

Three briefs in the same model and colour are a whole week's rhythm with a single wash along the way. They can be washed together, they can be worn in any order, and you never have to choose in the morning. Most people end up with two packs: one in use and one in the drawer. The washing advice is found under washing and care.

Size

The model comes from S to XXL. Choose your usual size, and go up if you are in doubt between two. If you are unsure about measurements or fit, the answers are found under frequently asked questions.

The rest of the drawer

The other models and colours are found under bamboo knickers, and you will find the entire base layer under underwear for women.
