In a market full of endless companies selling underwear, it might be scary to figure out what the best options are. Some companies put a high ticket on underwear that honestly, just don’t deserve it. Since a young age, we’re all familiar with the types of underwear that your mom or dad picked up at the local department store. You know, the ones that came in a pack of three to five that never really did not the job right. Don’t get us wrong, at that age, everyone does their time with this type of underwear. But you’re not a little kid anymore and your underwear should show that.
If you’re ready to finally graduate from your low quality, shapeless, scratchy, unsupportive, cheap underwear, we applaud you! Of course, you’ll want to make sure you’re taking the necessary precautions to make sure you don’t end up paying more money to essentially receive the same underwear you had before. So, what do you need to focus on to make sure you’re getting higher quality underwear? Here are the five things you need to look out for to make sure that your underwear truly is top-notch.
The Seams
One sure-fire ways to notice something’s off with your new underwear is to look at the seams. If the pair is as top-notch as their ticket value says, you should see nothing but clean stitching all around the pair. Whether it be the seam of the waistband to the rest of the underwear; or the seam of the fabric that gives shape to your butt. There should be clean stitching with no messy or loose threads. If you take the underwear out of its packaging and you see loose threads and messy seams, put it back in its package and send them back immediately. Poor stitching and seam work are a guaranteed way for your underwear to fall apart after the first wear. One easy way to check this is to gently pull at the seam of the garment, if there are gaps in the seam, RUN.
The Fabric
There are few things worse than a scratchy or itchy fabric, ESPECIALLY down there. Most people can just feel a piece of fabric to check the quality. But if you can’t, don’t worry! We’re about to tell you how. For fabric that is supposed to be thick and opaque, hold it up to the light. The fabric is low quality if you can see clear through it. Next, the scrunch test. Ball up a section of the fabric in your hand and hold it for a few seconds. If the fabric stays wrinkly: low quality. Last but not least, the stretch test. Take the fabric in your hands and gently tug on it, if it returns to its original form: high quality. If its stretched and misshapen: low quality.
The Cut
It’s dreadful to be excited to slip into your new pair of sexy underwear, only to put them on and feel the underwear cutting into your skin in all the wrong places. It’s even worse when the fabric nearly suffocates your package and feels like it’s cutting your butt in half because of the terribly cut and sewn seams. You know, when the seams are hanging on for dear life. If you hold up your underwear out of the package and it doesn’t even look like it’s the right shape, 9 times out of 10 you will be right.
The Elastic
This one’s a quick one, if you gently stretch the elastic waistband of the underwear and it gets stuck in the position you stretched it; you’ve been bamboozled. You might as well have gone to the goodwill to get some used underwear because you received underwear with dried out old elastic.
The Feel
Nowadays, with fabric technology becoming so advanced, moisture-wicking fabric is sure to make your underwear feel great. Without this type of fabric, you’ll be super uncomfortable down below. Which isn’t fun for anyone. The “feel” is all-encompassing, it includes all of the points we’ve mentioned above. If the underwear feels scratchy or thin, is suffocating you all over, and feels as though it’s going to fall apart in one wear, return them. You know what feels right, don’t lie to yourself just because you think the underwear is cute.
At the end of the day, if you open up your brand-new underwear and notice problems with them right away. Just return them! You know for a fact, it’s just going to sit in your drawer, never worn, taking up space. You should love all of the underwear in your drawers. It should be full of pairs that have you contemplating daily which one you want to wear more. If you have a single pair of underwear that makes you think “oh those don’t feel right, not those”. Chuck them in the bin, and do better. You deserve to be comfortable and happy in your underwear.
