Can Your Undies Handle Your Sweat?

We all sweat. It’s part of the beauty of the human condition. Some of us sweat more than others, but we’re all in this together, right? Once we accept it, we can work with it—starting with our underwear. 

Some underwear is simply not built to withstand sweating. That can result in dampness that leads to chafing and less-than-stellar smells. To combat this, you’re going to want sweat-proof underwear that can handle all your daily activities while keeping you cool and dry. 

We happen to have some Undies that fit the bill, so take our sweat-free hand as we guide you through the best underwear for sweat. 

Just Breathe

Breathability is probably the most important factor to consider when shopping for underwear that’ll keep you dry. You need a fabric that lets your skin feel the breeze, or else you might find yourself getting overheated quickly. Overheating equals sweat, so you definitely want to find something that allows airflow.

Our signature MicroModal fabric is sustainably made from fibers extracted from beechwood trees, making it lightweight, super-soft, and (you guessed it) breathable. It’s the perfect fabric for your day-to-day life, as it can keep you comfy and dry from dawn to dusk. It’s like a breath of fresh air for, you know, down there. 

Another option to consider when looking to combat sweat is our Stretch Cotton Undies. They offer the comfort you know and love from cotton, with added stretch, softness, and breathability. You really can’t go wrong.

Something Wicking This Way Comes

Sweat-wicking underwear is one of the greatest inventions of all humankind. It sees your sweat and says, “Not today!” before quickly wicking it away to evaporate. If whoever invented it is reading this, we tip our hats to you. You changed the game. 

Our Breathe Undies and Bralettes are not only incredibly moisture-wicking, but they’re also anti-odor and quick-drying. They’re like the triple-threat of the underwear world. This is the fabric you’ll want if you are going to be moving and grooving, as it’ll keep you dry, smelling good, and completely comfortable, even on your most active days. Our Breathe collection is also our most lightweight, so you might not even notice you’re wearing it.

We’ve Got It Covered

Choosing the right underwear cut is also crucial in the ongoing battle against sweat. Cuts like our Thongs, Pouch Front Thongs, and Jockstraps offer support without any excess fabric. But if you’re partial to more coverage, check out our Boxer Briefs or Boyshorts, which can help protect your skin and also your clothing when the sweating begins. Different days call for different cuts, so it’s best to be prepared with as many options as possible. You never know what this world might throw at you.

Parting Wisdom

Sweat happens. And that’s okay. Not only is it natural, it’s necessary to regulate your body temperature. That doesn’t mean you have to live your life damp, but be kind to yourself if you start to sweat. Now you have the proper tools to go forth and be dry. And don’t forget, we’ve got your back (and your butt, and all the other sweaty places, too). Good luck!
