Very comfortable full coverage.

These briefs are great! They are full coverage without being frumpy. The cut is generous and comfortable around the leg openings. The waist is comfortable also. It hits me in just the right place and is not placed to low on my torso. The organic cotton material is good quality and soft. I give them a 10/10 and will be ordering more soon! Thank you!

New favorite!

I usually wear the high-rise brief, and tried these on a whim. I am glad I did because they are my new favorite!! They provide full coverage and are super comfy. Gone are the days of having to tug and fuss with my underwear!!

Love the color, the fit, and the fabric.

I’m switching my undergarments to cotton after a stint with synthetics. This underwear is a great alternative to similar styles with less desirable materials.
