Three black bamboo maxi briefs with a high waist
The maxi brief is the model that covers the most and is felt the least. The high waist lies over the hip instead of cutting into it, and the back covers the bottom fully, so no edges and lines appear under your clothes. The pack contains three identical black maxi briefs in a soft bamboo quality, for women, in sizes S to XXXL.
A high waist that does not cut in
The problem with most briefs is the waistband. If it sits in the middle of the stomach, it rolls down when you sit and leaves a mark when you take it off. The maxi brief places the waistband higher up, where there is less movement, and spreads the pressure over a wider area. The result is a brief you do not think about during the day, and that is the only real measure for underwear.
Under high waisted trousers
High waisted jeans and trousers have become the standard, and they call for underwear that reaches the same height. A lower brief under high waisted trousers gives a double edge on the stomach, while the maxi brief lies smooth under the waistband. The same applies under skirts and close fitting dresses, where the full coverage of the bottom removes the visible transitions.
The fabric
The briefs are made of 70 % bamboo viscose, 25 % organic cotton and 5 % elastane. The bamboo viscose is smooth against the skin and leads moisture away, so it evaporates instead of staying put, and that is precisely why the fibre works so well for underwear. The cotton gives the fabric body, the elastane holds the shape wash after wash. The properties are gathered under benefits of bamboo viscose.
The certification
The briefs are OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified under cert. no. BJ020 142441. The certification covers the whole product, including the elastic and the sewing thread, and on underwear that is the label that matters most of all, because the fabric lies directly against the skin around the clock.
Sizes from S to XXXL
This model comes in the widest size range in the collection, from S all the way up to XXXL. Choose your usual size. If you are in doubt between two, take the larger one: a maxi brief should lie flat, not squeeze, and the elastane makes sure it follows the body instead of pinching. The differences between the models are described under guide to knickers and underpants.
Three in the pack
Underwear is what gets changed every day, and that is why three identical ones make more sense than one. Three black maxi briefs cover more than half a week, and they can be washed together with the rest of your dark clothes. It is the simplest way to keep the drawer filled with something you actually feel like putting on.
Washing
Wash the briefs at 40 degrees with your dark clothes, avoid fabric softener, and let them air dry. Fabric softener settles on the fibres and makes the fabric worse at moving moisture. All the advice is found under washing and care.
The rest of the drawer
All the models and colours are found under bamboo knickers, and if the top is to match the bottom, you will find the rest under underwear for women.
