Everyone’s favorite ethical brand recently launched their underwear line! True to the Everlane spirit, the collection is the definition of “better than basic.” It’s simple and functional with no frills, but promises to reinvent a wardrobe staple.
I’ve been impressed with their marketing for the women’s underwear line. Models of color, inclusive body types, poses that show off tummy rolls in all their glory—this is definitely a step in the right direction, and for that alone I was already sold.
Many of the sustainable and ethical underwear brands I’ve seen have pretty steep prices, so I was thrilled to see that Everlane’s underwear line is affordable at $12 each and $9 each if you buy 3 or more.
I snatched up 3 pairs of undies in the bikini and thong styles (I contemplated trying the high-waisted style but they sold out of the color I wanted).
My review of Everlane’s ethical underwear:
First impressions? They were packaged in cute paper boxes, which was nice because the last thing this world needs is more plastic. I was a little worried from the online photos that the underwear would look cheap, but in person they look well-made.
Sizing: I usually find Everlane clothing runs large, but I think their underwear line runs true to size.
Comfort: I have zero complaints. They are soft and don’t slip down or ride up. Even the thong is incredibly comfortable, which is always somewhat of a miracle. After a tumble in the washing machine and dryer, they felt even softer!
VPL (Visible Panty Line): The bikini style has some VPL if you’re wearing tight pants or leggings. The thong has 0 VPL.
Verdict: Everlane, you did good. I can’t complain about the quality or fit of the underwear, and the marketing campaign was beautiful, inclusive, and empowering. If you’re in need of new undies, look no further! I’m already planning on buying more because my other undies just don’t compare. Everlane also has men’s underwear.

![is RECYCLED PLASTIC really sustainable?
many eco brands are making clothes from recycled plastic water bottles and even fishing nets. this takes plastic out of landfills and reuses them – which is good, right?
the real answer isn’t so simple! plastic clothing releases microfibers when we wash them (and even when we just wear them about our daily lives) which go into our oceans and end up inside sea life. microfibers accumulate toxins in the bodies of animals, meaning that not only is marine life in danger, but we are too when we consume seafood.
so what can we do?
🌿prioritize buying non-plastic clothing when possible
🌿wash your plastic clothing inside a microfiber-catching bag (I have a @guppyfriend & @girlfriend makes them too)
🌿install a microfiber filter in your washing machine if you own one (@girlfriend makes them, too!)

Ah, yes!! Thank you for this! I have the hardest time finding decent underwear, and was excited to see that Everlane was making them, now, too. Thanks for the review- I feel even better about ordering some! 🙂
Yes, same, lots of other ethical underwear brands are on the pricier side too so I was really happy that Everlane made their line very affordable!
I was so tempted to buy them just because their advertising was so good. However, I still couldn’t justify the price. :/
Oh really? Their prices are pretty comparable to fast fashion underwear brands like Victoria’s Secret. And much comfier, haha! I never buy underwear (lol TMI) so I thought the price was ok 🙂
girl, yes! I buy mine on sale either at outlets or nordstromrack for like $5 a piece at most! :)) I always hunt after Calvin Klein!
Oh I see! Personally I’d rather spend the extra $4 to support a brand that I know has ethical labor practices, so that’s how I justify spending more. I actually don’t know much about Calvin Klein’s ethics though!
I have never heard of this brand of underwear before. It sounds fantastic and I LOVE the fact that they model them on all types of women, Fantastic!!
You should definitely check Everlane out! They sell much more than underwear 🙂
i love everlane, I didn’t know they came out with underwear! These are so cute!
Me too! I was so excited when they launched the underwear line!
Fantastic! I have been on the search for underwear that I can feel good about wearing. This is an awesome share, thank you!
Thank you! Glad it was helpful!
I’m so glad you wrote this! It’s so easy to be consumed by ethical food and beauty products. Fair trade coffee and things like that. But it’s so easy to forget that clothing has an ethical standing.
Personally I love me a pair of basic undies. No-one else is going to see them but me and if much prefer comfort over style.
I’ll definitely look into these. Thank you for sharing xx
Thank you! Me, too…I’ll take comfort over frills or lace any day.
These look SO comfy!! Awesome post.
