Discover the key features of the Adaptive Brief Organic Cotton, including velcro side openings, soft GOTS-certified organic cotton, and how to choose the right size for easy dressing.
Quick answer
The Adaptive Brief Organic Cotton is designed for people who find putting on underwear difficult, featuring velcro side openings and soft GOTS-certified organic cotton.
Who benefits from the side openings?
The velcro side openings with wide closures make it easier to put on and take off, especially if you have limited mobility, use a wheelchair, or experience discomfort when bending or reaching. The design was developed in collaboration with the disabled community to address real dressing challenges.
What about the fabric and sustainability?
The brief is made from soft organic GOTS cotton, which means it meets strict environmental and social standards. It also uses in-house GRS recycled elastic, reducing waste. This combination offers both comfort and a lower environmental footprint compared to conventional underwear.
Frequently asked questions
- How do the velcro side openings work?
- The brief has wide velcro closures on each side that you can open fully to step into or position the brief without pulling it over your legs or hips. Once in place, press the closures shut for a secure fit.
- How do I choose the right size?
- Measure your waist at its narrowest point and your hips at the widest part. Compare these measurements to the size chart on the product page. The wide closures offer some adjustability, so you can fine-tune the fit. Check your waist and hip measurements against the size chart before ordering.
- Can I machine wash this brief?
- Yes, machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water and tumble dry low. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can affect the velcro and elastic. The GOTS cotton and recycled elastic hold up well to regular washing. Use cold water and skip fabric softener to keep the velcro and elastic working properly.
