Underwear is one of the things that I struggle to use second-hand, and I’m not sure if I intend to change that (lest some nowaste people teach me mystical ways and methods :P) But the fact is that I can only use what I’ve got currently for so long, and so I turn to you.

I am not looking for specific reccomendations exclusively, and the type of underwear (underpants, brasseries, undershirts) are all welcome for discussion! But I’m hoping to find advice which will help me find something that will last, and to a decent standard (i.e, don’t use polyester socks, due to smell).

So please lend your advice for finding Bras, Briefs, Bobbysocks, and Bundershirts!

EDIT: Also advice on what materials are better suited to different climates is also well appreciated! (I tend to leave my posts personal detail agnostic so they can serve as resources for others :))

    The subreddit (sorry for directing to that site) ABraThatFits improved my life considerably. In addition to guides on measurements and sizes and shapes, there are tons of recommendations to suit the different measurements. The people responsible did an excellent job of data collection, and I hope the info remains available so others can benefit.

      Maybe I’ve just been skimming over things, but doesn’t the sub only really provide guides for sizing? Personally, I’m asking for advice on material, and being able to appraise pieces that will have a longer lifecycle, y’know, sustainability and cost effectiveness and all :)

      also no, you will not be forgiven
