Children’s underwear: the second skin
Comfortable underwear is as important for children as a well‑fitting jumper. Sitting directly against the skin, it should be soft, breathable and free of harmful chemicals. Our range of children’s underwear includes briefs, tops and vests that feel gentle and allow plenty of movement. Proper sleepwear also contributes to a restful night – explore the children’s sleepwear & pyjamas category for styles to suit all ages. A good pyjama or bodysuit keeps your child warm without overheating.
Materials: natural fibres first
Organic cotton is a great choice for underwear. It’s soft, breathable and grown without genetically modified seeds. Compared to conventional cotton, it uses fewer pesticides and less water and involves no child labour. Synthetic fabrics often do not breathe as well and may shed microplastics. For colder days, wool or silk blends are warming alternatives, absorbing moisture and regulating temperature. When shopping, look for certifications such as GOTS that ensure ecological and social standards.
Fit and variety in underwear
Good underwear has comfortable cuts and flat seams. Elastic waistbands keep briefs and vests in place without digging in. Fun prints and bright colours make dressing more enjoyable. For cooler nights, choose long‑sleeved pyjamas; in summer, short sets are pleasantly airy. Pair underwear with baby socks or kids’ socks made of cotton to keep feet warm. No matter the season, comfortable underwear helps your child feel confident and free to move.
Care, sustainability and gift ideas
Wash underwear before first use with a gentle detergent and avoid fabric softener so the fibres stay breathable. High‑quality garments retain their shape and colour even after many washes and can be handed down to siblings. Underwear also makes a practical gift for new babies or birthdays – fresh pieces are always needed. Ensure that briefs and tops fit properly and that your child can move freely. With the right underwear, they’ll be ready for any adventure.
