Underwear
Underwear sits directly against your skin, which is exactly why this garment needs to be extra comfortable to wear. It should fit your body so well that you barely notice you're wearing it. At PlutoSport you'll find underwear from Calvin Klein, Bjorn Borg and Muchachomalo. We're happy to tell you what to look out for when buying.
Choose the Right Underwear
The most important thing about underwear is that it feels comfortable. That's why it's crucial to choose the right size, so it doesn't pinch or ride up. An oversized boxer short won't offer optimal comfort. You'll miss out on the support, and the legs may ride up.
The style you choose depends on your personal preference. If you have thicker legs and prefer boxer shorts, we recommend choosing a model with longer legs. This will prevent them from riding up. Boxer shorts with shorter legs are more suitable for slimmer legs.
Material
Most underwear is made from cotton. Cotton is a natural fabric that feels comfortable and cool. Cotton itself doesn't have much stretch, so it's usually combined with elastane to ensure the underwear fits to the body while maintaining its shape. There is also underwear made from synthetic materials like polyester. This fabric is colorfast and more durable. It wicks away moisture, keeping it dry. Underwear made from synthetic materials is great for sports. Take a look at our sports underwear range for these options.
Sustainable Underwear
Sustainable underwear is often not only better for the environment, but also for your skin. Underwear made from bamboo, organic, or biological cotton is soft and breathable, preventing itching and allowing for better airflow to the body. Bamboo plants grow incredibly fast and need very little water, making their environmental impact minimal. Growing organic cotton is also much more sustainable than conventional cotton farming. The organic method uses no toxic chemicals, minimizes water usage, and rotates crops to prevent soil depletion. More and more brands are prioritizing sustainability, making it easier to find eco-friendly underwear.
