comfiest knickers/briefs

I find all my knickers slightly uncomfy, even having sized up. I like a full brief and super soft material. I used to love the John Lewis anyday microfibre briefs but they changed the material and they aren't so soft now.

Any suggestions? Happy to pay a bit.

Thanks!

Innersey have been recommended on here a lot recently. I bought some; they’re good so far; they do various styles:

Would you say they are true to size? Some say they come up bigger. Need to be sure as can’t return underwear

I had same problem with pads not sticking on the Wirapa pants, but after a few washes they stick better

Good to know @Allseeingallknowing ...here's hoping!

Yes very expensive but I got in the sale and feel like it's a worthwhile investment!

Yes they do come up bigger . I bought my usual size first time around , then sized down for my 2nd . Both fit ok but the bigger ones are past my waist .

Hey everyone,

So in the end I didn't order a whole heap, I just researched thoroughly and went for Stripe & Stare...I can confirm I am a convert!! They are exactly what I was looking for - silky, soft and I barely notice them once on, they also wash well. I'm a size 10 and medium fits really well.

The only down side (and no small thing 🙈) is that my sanitary pads didn't stick to them. However this may be down to the brand of sanitary pad so I will try next month with different ones 😅.

Thanks for all the help on here!! X

I bought stripe and stare too but preferred boody but not bad overall.
