So what’s more fitting than my first review here to be about new underwear for the new year on my new blog? And what better color than green since it signifies better luck for this year than the last. So overall we’re uncomfortable with the current focus of Fruit of the Loom’s branding and marketing.In some cultures it’s lucky to wear new underwear for the new year. Also, we were confused by the color selection in the Body Tone multipack. We would have made the briefs a pick, but we found the “Fit for Me” branding of the extended sizing off-putting. And if you include the extended sizing, Fruit of the Loom has the largest size range of any of the underwear we tested. This underwear is sold in multipacks, including a mix of solids with stripes or florals. But the machine-wash-cold laundering instructions seem restrictive for everyday wear. All of our testers loved the fit (if not the style) of these undies, since they were very comfortable and stayed in place. This underwear is made of quick-dry polyester that reminds us of basketball shorts material. It also comes in a Brief and a Lo-Rise Brief, and in extended sizing, a Fit for Me brief (sizes 9 to 13). If you want a sporty fabric that’s breathable but very basic: Consider Fruit of the Loom’s Breathable Micro-Mesh Bikini Underwear (sizes 5 to 9).
And the lacy pattern made our testers feel a little sexy, no matter what kind of clothes they were wearing. The fabric is sheer, with the opaque lace providing some modesty throughout. This lets the undies hug any curves-one tester said, “I can’t get over how great these made my butt look.” It also allows them to lie flat at the hips because there aren’t seams up the sides.

Rather than pieced together with front and back panels attached by side seams (as the majority of our picks are), the Hanky Panky boyshorts have a center seam that runs from belly button to butt crack under the gusset. Depending on where you shop, these boyshorts also comes in more than 25 colors (though its core colors, such as light pink, black, white and beige, are widely available). The Hanky Panky pair also comes in the largest size range of our picks, from XS to 3X (which, per the brand’s size guide, will fit folks with hips between 55 and 58 inches). Though these boyshorts provide substantial butt coverage, they don’t show panty lines. The leg holes are cut wide and at an angle, so there is minimal digging.

The medium rise and flexible waistband proved great for our testers who have loose skin around their bellies. Our entire testing panel was surprised at the Hanky Panky Signature Lace Boyshort’s comfort and ease of wear. Six styles emerged as the best everyday undies: a classic, cheap cotton pair in a multipack, a high-waisted retro-style bikini, a quick-dry, barely there brief, a lacy boyshort, and two thongs (one minimalist and mesh, the other comfy and paper-thin).īoyshorts are a love-’em-or-hate-’em style, and they can be an uncomfortable nightmare if they cut in too tight at the thigh. Once we narrowed the options-which range from $3 a pair to about $35-some testers continued to wear them for months to test their durability. The panelists squatted, bent over, and reached up high to see whether the undies moved with them or against them, and they checked for panty lines and whale tail.

Each tester wore each pair for at least a full day and rated the underwear in terms of comfort, style, and fit. Our testing panel ranged from S to XL in size and self-identified as having various body types the panel consisted of three cisgender and one transgender woman. If you can put on our picks and never have to think about them again, we’ve all won.Īfter consulting experts in the field and researching hundreds of styles, we narrowed our pool to 27 pairs. Our goal was to find pairs you’d love so much that you’d dump out your drawer of rejects-so we spent more than 25 hours researching (and countless hours wearing) women’s underwear. And then there are a few well-loved favorites that rise to the top of the pile every time, rotating from butt to laundry bin and back again. Many people have a drawer full of ’em, with dozens of pairs that just don’t quite fit. It can pinch, pull, tug, cut, and end up in all the wrong places.
A bad pair of underwear can ruin your day.
