The Best Women’s Underwear to Buy in Bulk on Amazon, According to Hyperenthusiastic Reviewers

“Look, I’m a 49 year old mother and baking enthusiast who specializes in bagels and breads,” explains one reviewer. “You can read between the lines on that detail. In other words, I’m not looking for thongs or lacy panties. I want cotton underwear. Underwear that stay up, don’t bind, don’t cut off circulation in my legs or make me feel like they are too snug in the waist.” Thankfully, they found this pack of 10 during their search. “Amazon Essentials just won the underwear quest war,” she continues. “I’ve worn them for several days and washed them a few times to determine comfort and durability. They are great. Perfect cotton underwear for normal women who don’t want anything fancy, just comfort and proper fit, but not total granny panties either.” And more than 1,800 reviewers call this underwear comfortable. “They are so soft, cover everything, zero wedgies, hide under leggings, breathe well, covered my weird post pregnancy belly without harsh criticism, I feel like I finally found THE panties,” another customer writes. And another likes them specifically because they don’t ride up: “I work 10 hours a day as a dental assistant so I’m up and down a lot then I workout 3 times a week doing Kangoo jumping and I no longer dig out wedgies.” And at two dollars a pair, reviewers think they are getting a good deal, but one reviewer likes these panties so much they’ll pay extra, just so they never change: “Amazon, don’t change this product. Don’t add more polyester. Don’t mess around trying to save money by making the product cheaper. Just charge more if you have to.”

About 15 reviewers describe these underwear as soft, and many credit the microfiber fabric. One describes it as “very satiny feeling yet is very cool and comfortable … No sweating in the summer and in colder weather [they]feel just fine. Truly, you forget that you are wearing underwear without feeling you’re not wearing any if you know what I mean.” Another reviewer says, “I just love the way they feel next to my skin.” And not only are they moisture-wicking, but they also dry quickly, which was important to one reviewer who took these on vacation. “I bought them for camping and especially want them to dry overnight, which they do.” The microfiber also lends itself to washing well. “Regardless of how many times I’ve washed them, they still look brand new as if I just got them,” one customer writes. “I bought some last year and they look the same. The color does not fade, the elastic didn’t not stretched out or wrinkled and it feels great on you.”

More than a third of reviewers describe these panties as soft, and many describe how comfortable the elastic band is, which is why it’s a favorite among many pregnant and postpartum reviewers. “I was sooo thankful to have them after I gave birth to my son,” one says. “They were so comfortable and soft. I ended up having an emergency c-section and they were soft they didn’t even irritate the area of the skin.” Another says, “I bought these while I was pregnant since my growing belly wouldn’t fit comfortably in my usual underwear.” They add, “They are so comfortable that I still wear that nearly 8 months postpartum. They are big but don’t fall down at all because the elastic is tight enough. It’s not too tight though. It’s absolutely perfect.” And even if you aren’t pregnant or a new mom, you should still buy this soft pack of 12, according to one satisfied customer: “These may not be your sexy underwear, but they’re worth having. These offer great coverage and a lot of stretch.”

“Well, I’ll be ordering more of THESE glorious undies, tell yew whut,” says one reviewer. “What a fit. Just enough pressure on the belly to boost my self-confidence. They do not roll down. The fit around the legs is primo.” These high waisted panties are praised by reviewers for covering their tummies without being so constricting that they feel like a control top. “They sit right at the waist, no rolling, bunching or pinching anywhere, very soft, no compression but perfectly snuggish so that it’s easy to get clothes on over them,” one explains. And even though they are a larger pair of underwear (so large that one reviewer says, “They do go up high and will show over your pants if your shirt isn’t long enough”) one user attests there is still “Virtually no panty line and slight imperfections are smoothed under my clothes.” The fit is praised by many pregnant and postpartum reviewers, too. One says, “I got these to wear during the last couple weeks of my pregnancy and also plan to wear them for postpartum.” While another recovering from a C-section writes, “These did not irritate my incision at all and provided some support.”

“Let’s talk about the fact that these are thongs,” one reviewer, who generally thinks thongs are uncomfortable. “I bought these because I needed thongs that were comfortable to work out in, and I gotta say I’m definitely not disappointed. I don’t even feel like I’m wearing underwear.” One thinks they’re so comfortable because, “They’re made of soft, stretchy 100% cotton knit, so my lady parts can breathe.” Another thinks it’s the fact that they “have a wide enough ‘under carriage’ (for lack of a better description) so you aren’t split in two by the creeping string of the thong.” Many reviewers are also repeat customers of this six-pack. “I’ve now had these for a while, and ordered again,” one says. “They are comfy, none have fallen apart, and they have held their shape well so far through use, washing, and drying.” Another notes, “This is our third order, we have washed (front load) and dried (low heat ) and they still look perfect and still just as comfy.”
