Sustainable Slips at Sophie Stone: Comfortable, Eco-Friendly and For Every Day

Let's talk about briefs for a moment. Yes really, those underpants you wear every day but probably don't think about very often. Because let's face it: is there anything finer than panties that just fit right, without squishy elastics or irritating seams? At Sophie Stone, we have a collection of sustainable briefs that are not only comfortable, but also good for the planet. Underpants with a good story - how nice is that?

Why choose durable slips?

Just an eye-opener: did you know that the average woman has about 34 pairs of underpants in her drawer? That's quite a lot of textiles for something barely visible. Most panties from the fast fashion industry are made of synthetic fabrics, produced with chemicals and often have a short lifespan.

Sustainable briefs are made from materials such as organic cotton, TENCEL™ or recycled fabrics. They feel softer on your skin, last longer and are produced with less environmental impact. Moreover, they are often made under fair labor conditions. A small choice with a big impact.
