If your underwear constantly rides up, it’s not you — it’s the cut.
This is especially common on curvier bodies.
What’s actually happening
Short underwear (like slips or briefs) often:
-
sit too high on the inner thigh
-
move when you walk
-
create friction
Which leads to constant adjusting.
Why longer cuts work better
Longer styles like boxer briefs:
-
stay in place better
-
reduce skin-on-skin friction
-
move with your body instead of against it
That’s why so many people end up switching — even if they didn’t plan to.
A lot of underwear is still designed with a very specific body type in mind.
So if your proportions don’t match that exactly, the fit feels off.
What to look for instead
-
A slightly longer leg
-
Fabric that stretches but doesn’t lose shape
-
A waistband that doesn’t dig in or roll
How we cut ours
We make the same affirming cut in three inseam lengths, all in 95% organic cotton with a tag-free waistband:
-
11cm — our longest cut, with full thigh coverage. The one to pick if riding up and chafing are what you’re trying to solve.
-
7cm — a middle length that still stays put.
-
5cm — our shortest cut, for everyday wear.

Comfort isn’t about getting used to something uncomfortable.
It’s about wearing something that actually fits how your body moves.
