It’s time to put those undies you’ve had since college to rest.

Unless otherwise specified, all sizes in this post are listed in women's.

The body of these are 95% cotton and 5% spandex, with a 100% cotton gusset. 

Promising review: "FINALLY, COMFY PANTIES! As a 30-year-old woman, I’ve been on the search for comfy underwear, and I finally found it. They’re soft and have the perfect amount of stretch." —Amazon Customer

"So freaking comfy. I need my undies to cradle under my butt cheeks the way a loving mother tenderly cradles her newborn’s face. I was worried these would creep up the cheeks into wedgie territory, but no. Blissful cheek hugging all day long. Can’t feel them even if I try. No weird pinching or odd areas. Perfect chef’s kiss. I typically wear Aerie boy brief–style undies — these are a close match in fit and comfort, and equivocal in size." —Ali Morey

Promising review: “Simply the best everyday underwear! This is coming from someone who hates underwear and would go without if I didn’t care about washing my pants between uses. I’ve been wearing these every single day for the past 2+ years, and I like them so much I threw out all my other underwear (Parade: I’m looking at you). They don’t ride up or bunch. They lay flat and comfortable. They are moisture-wicking. I wear them under office clothes and to the gym, pretty much in every scenario. They are odor-resistant (gross, sorry). They stand up very well to regular washing without pilling or stretching. I have some pairs from two years ago that are almost new, except that the brand text has worn off the inside. I have yet to find a better brand for the price.” —Oli

Promising review: “Just get them, you won’t regret! Everything from the thoughtful packaging and thank you card to the fit and feel of these panties is just lovely. These stay in place and never ride up. I wear these to the gym under my yoga pants, and they don’t show through. These panties are true to size and so soft, the lace is silky, and so comfortable. These panties will definitely bump your confidence up a few notches.” —Lece Roe

Promising review: “Holy grail of underpants!!! WOW!! I grabbed a set for a cold-weather vacation to wear under fleeced leggings, hoping (but not expecting) that they’d stay in place without getting wedgies or bunching up in the crotch (as some boy short styles are apt to do), while covering the badonkadonk and giving an extra layer of warmth. WHAT?!! I can sincerely report that these are the most comfortable underwear I’ve ever worn. I’m now buying a few more sets and throwing all of my old ones away. They are super well made, the cotton is on the thicker side, but nice and stretchy. They felt a little stiff out of the box, but once I washed them, they were soft as a dream. Absolutely worth the price. I’m 170ish, shaped a little boxy/boyish from the waist down, and bought an XL. Go ahead and buy them, life is too short for ill-fitting britches!!!!” —MaritimeMama

Promising review: “I’ve been wearing these for a few weeks, and they have quickly become a favorite in my wardrobe. The soft cotton material feels comfortable and breathable throughout the day, while the high-waisted design provides excellent coverage and support. It sits snugly without digging in or rolling down, which makes it perfect for both everyday wear and under fitted clothing. The underwear also holds its shape after washing and maintains its softness. One thing to note is that the sizing may run slightly small, so it’s a good idea to check the size chart before ordering. Overall, these are comfortable, supportive, and practical high-waisted underwear that I would recommend for everyday use.” —Nv

Promising review: “Everyday comfort you can actually feel! These Fruit of the Loom Beyondsoft panties live up to their name. The fabric is genuinely soft and lightweight, with just the right amount of stretch so they move with you instead of digging in or riding up. They hold their shape after multiple washes and don’t shrink or fade, which is rare at this price point. They’re exactly what you want for everyday wear. Comfortable, breathable, and affordable enough to stock up on. If you’re looking for reliable basics that feel great all day long, these are a no-brainer. The length, look, and fit are great and, as expected, and ride height is appropriate as well.” —Michelle Kim

Promising review: “Life-changing period underwear! These period underwear are absolutely amazing! They are incredibly comfortable, fit perfectly, and provide excellent protection. I was really impressed with how absorbent they are — they kept me feeling dry and secure all day without any leaks. The material is soft, breathable, and feels just like regular underwear, which makes them so much more comfortable than using pads alone. They’re also easy to wash and reuse, making them a great eco-friendly option. These have truly been a game changer for my cycle, and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a comfortable and reliable alternative!” —Kaelyn Hetzler

Promising review: “Finally, no chafing or riding up! I have tried a bunch of brands of boxer brief type underwear, including ones made for women and men, desperately trying to find something that fits a curvy bottom, doesn't roll on thick thighs, and protects me from chafing in summer. At long last, I have found the holy grail of underwear. First, they are SO SOFT. I've become a fan of bamboo fabric for softness and breathability. Second, they are true to size with a good bit of stretchiness, so they can accommodate a variety of body shapes. I've worn them all day in heat and humidity, and they have stayed put on my thighs, and I don't feel swampy. They breathe well. The elastic waist is pretty much at my true waist, which is what I want when wearing this style. They have a reinforced gusset. The one flaw is that the gusset is short, so when moving around, it isn't quite protecting the areas gussets are supposed to protect. Another inch or an inch and a half in each direction would make these perfect. I wear this style of underwear under skirts and when hiking. These have more give than other options like spandex shorts or shapewear, which I prefer because I want to move and breathe. If you want something to smooth out your lumps, this isn't it. If you just want to be comfortable and non-sweaty and not chafed, these are the ones. I'm going to buy them in more colors because I think I will wear these fairly often.” —H. Billings

Promising review: "Plus size friendly, just do it!! Fire 10/10. If you’re thinking about it, just do it. I searched high and low for a good pair of underwear. Read ALL the reviews and recommendations from so many websites. I chose these, and they did not disappoint. They do not cut into your legs like a lot of ‘shapewear’ underwear does, the leg holes are generous and comfortable. I love the no-show look, especially since becoming a mom. I hate thongs. Again, JUST DO IT." —susan i moss

They're also hypoallergenic with no annoying, itchy tags (phew!). 

Promising review: "These Kent organic cotton bikini panties? Total game changer. No polyester swamp situation, no mystery fabrics — just soft, breathable cotton that feels like a gentle hug from Mother Earth herself.  I didn’t realize how much my old underwear was betraying me until I slipped into these. Now my bits are chill, my conscience is clean, and I’ve already ordered more because, well… my junk demanded it.  If your underwear makes you sweat, ditch it. These are the real MVP." —Shauna C

Promising review: "These are my new favorites. They are comfortable and do not show under all my clothes. They are super soft too and hold up all day without gapping. I have been buying Victoria’s Secret underwear for many years, spending unnecessary money. I’ll repurchase these over and over again." —Joshua

Promising review: “So comfy with zero wedgies! These undies are not only sexy, but they are also extremely comfortable for everyday wear. I don't get wedgies like with similar types of underwear, which is why this is my second order. They are true to size and fit me perfectly. I can even wear them with leggings without the lines being any more obvious than less sexy undies. I am low-key obsessed! They are well-made and of high quality at an affordable price. If you are looking to upgrade your unmentionables, these are the undies for you!” —Christianna T.

Promising review: "These are the most comfortable underwear that I own! Even though the briefs are granny panties, I guess by definition, I like the cut of them so much. I have a short torso and hip dips, and the briefs are cut pretty much perfectly where they cover but feel close to the skin and don't get baggy or dank even when I wore them a few days in a row while sweating bullets with fever. The anti-bacterial quality of these works! I can't recommend these enough. Absolutely worth every penny." —Miki Foster

They don’t slip or move. They don't leave marks or dig in. You can wear them with a dress, slacks, to bed, or in the gym. They are machine washable and keep their size. Material is quality and stretchy. Buy them, you won’t be disappointed.” —Amazon Customer

Promising review: “Finally found the perfect underwear! Underwear is such a hard thing to buy online. You have no idea if what you’re getting is gonna be too small, too big, uncomfortable, or they’re gonna be great but fall apart the first time you watch them… OR they can be the best darn underwear in the universe. That is what I think I found in this pack of underwear. I have literally, in my 50 years on this planet, never had such a comfortable pair of underwear, ever. There always seems to be something wrong with the ones I buy, for various reasons. These ones are perfect. I honestly don’t even know I’m wearing them. They fit perfectly, they don’t fold over, they don’t ride up, they cover the fupa (iykyk), and I have washed them many times and have no complaints. The one thing I can’t give advice on is the size. I went a size up than I normally would, but that was because I’m a little wider than I was the last time I bought a pack of underwear, lol. They fit me like a glove, so I can’t really say whether they’re ‘true to size’ or not. All I can say is, again, this is the best underwear I’ve ever purchased, so much so that I’m buying two more packs and getting rid of all my other ones.” —Could It Be Kree

Promising review: “The only panties I’ll wear (and have been for years)! I love these so much that I bought them in every fun fabric. I got rid of a lot of my old undies because they just weren’t as comfortable as these. I machine wash them with no problem. They’re breathable and not tight; I hate underwear that cuts into the skin. I wear a medium in other underwear, and these are true to size. I bought a set 2.5 years ago, and they’re just now starting to be a little too stretched out to not give me a wedgie, so I’m buying the same kind again! Not bad for surviving, no doubt, over 50 washes on regular cycle!” —Genevieve

Promising review: “I am very surprised. They wash well and fit really well. They are very comfortable. My belly sticks out, and most panties’ top bands ride down and feel very uncomfortable. I was also worried about the lace on top of the band. Well, it is the band. So I worried about it being itchy, too. But these fit super comfortably. This is the first pair fitting well and feeling comfortable in a few years since struggling with…severe bloating. But this has been an issue for me in finding bigger panties and not dealing with a folding, too-tight, uncomfortable waist. These are great. In fact, I ordered more. Three packs more. I do highly recommend these. They don’t look or feel like granny panties either. :)" —Karen W.

I'm still waiting for summer to find out if they will hold heat, but I don't think I will care. They are that comfy! No wedgies either. I bought them because of the price, and I bought more because they are incredible. I even sent some to my sister, she loves them too.” —RhenaB

My other underwear rides down a lot, so I was happy that these stayed in place. They’re very comfortable; they don’t give you that annoying wedgie that other thongs do. I highly recommend these, especially for the price. They came in a cute little bag, and all the stitching was on point and even. Already thinking of buying another pack! :)” —Nandy

Promising review: “I was on the edge of two different sizes, and so I got the larger one. Worst-case scenario, I could return them or do some alterations myself. I didn't have to do that. THEY ARE SO COMFORTABLE!!!!! Covers enough everywhere, and I'm curvy. Also, they do sit a bit higher on your waist than in the picture. They remind me of ‘high-cut’ briefs for women. Each pair scrunches down to the size of the palm of my hand and is way lighter than normal cotton underwear. I had to stop myself from logging back into Amazon and ordering several more pairs! I have no doubt these will perform as expected. No doubt. I can also see how they will dry quickly. Very pleased.” —Cierra J. Kearns
