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 :))
I haven’t tried in very warm climates yet, but I think they should do well. Seem to breathe well - yesterday I had a full day of traveling in heavy hiking boots from the snowy Alps through hours on a bus then plane and finally relatively warmer climates, and the socks performed great the entire way. No need to change them when I finally got home, which is certainly not to my feet’s credit.
I think they will perform well in pretty much any setting where you would traditionally use cotton socks. When I went on hikes in the Alps I wore woolen socks, so I don’t know how the bamboo ones would have held up.
