Woolen briefs, hipsters and panties for women
Wool-silk underwear feels different than a regular cotton or synthetic brief. The fabric is thin, supple and helps to regulate your temperature. In this collection, you will find briefs, hipsters and longer-legged panties from Engel Natur, made of 70% organic merino wool and 30% silk. This way, you can not only choose a color that suits you, but above all the style in which you feel comfortable.
Which style suits you?
A classic brief provides the least extra coverage and fits easily under various types of clothing. A hipster sits slightly wider around the hips and has a low, short leg cut. If you prefer more coverage or tend to suffer from chafing thighs, then a panty with longer legs is often more comfortable. There are also models with a lace trim for those looking for a slightly more refined finish.
Why wool-silk for underwear?
Merino wool can absorb moisture without feeling clammy and helps to keep your body temperature balanced. Silk makes the fabric smoother, more supple and lighter. As a result, wool-silk is comfortable to wear in the cold, but also when your temperature fluctuates or your skin easily feels sensitive. Every skin reacts differently; if in doubt, it is best to feel the material first.

How to choose the right size?
A woolen brief or hipster should fit snugly, but should not pinch or cut into the skin anywhere. If you are between two sizes, the larger size is often more comfortable. In doing so, pay attention not only to your clothing size, but also to the waist height, the leg cut and how much coverage you prefer. Always check the size advice for the chosen product.
How to wash wool-silk underwear?
You wash underwear more often than a woolen shirt or sweater. Use a suitable wool detergent and choose the wool wash cycle on your machine at a low temperature. Do not wash too hot, spin gently and let the underwear air dry. Regular detergent and fabric softener are not suitable for the care of wool.
