Briefs FAQs

What are brief panties?

If you're looking for optimal comfort and support with your underwear, briefs are the way to go. Women's briefs provide maximum coverage and sit slightly higher on the waist, but they're just as comfortable, if not more, than other types of underwear. 

Are women's briefs in style?

Women's briefs are timeless and will never go out of style. While other types of underwear have become popular in recent years, briefs have always remained a solid and classic choice. Thongs and bikinis are well-known for their barely-there qualities, but briefs are a comfortable choice that every woman can rely on. 

Our collection of briefs for women includes a variety of styles and designs so every woman can find something she loves. For example, you can find high-leg briefs that sit higher on the thigh and hit right below the navel. Or, you can opt for vanishing briefs that hit higher on the waistband and naturally smooth and contour your figure. High-waist briefs feature a retro cut for a fun flare to your everyday underwear. 

You can shop our selection of briefs in women’s designs and find timeless colors like neutrals and nude colorways, or you can branch out with lively floral prints, bright colors, and lace detailing. We have underwear for every day of the week, whether you're feeling like keeping it simple or playing with patterns and colors.

At the end of the day, the right underwear depends on personal preference, so choose something that makes you happy.

Are briefs comfortable for women?

If you're looking for comfortable, flexible underwear, women's briefs are the way to go. They're loose enough to comfortably lounge around in but tight enough to wear under most clothing. 

Unlike boyshorts that sit low on the leg and are typically visible under clothing, briefs are sleek and stretchy so that you can wear them with shorts, jeans, skirts, and leggings, and your panty lines won't show.

Our briefs are made from a soft, high-stretch fabric that moves with you. They also feature a smooth, invisible waistband to keep them secure without digging into your skin. We've designed our entire selection of panties with comfort in mind, so you'll always feel your best, no matter the type of underwear you choose.
