Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose my size?

True to size. If you’re between sizes, size up for comfort. Use the Fit Recommender and compare your natural waist measurement to our chart.

Will they show under clothes?

They’re smooth and gently stretchy, with flat seams to minimize VPL (visible panty line). While not a bonded “seamless” construction (as that's exclusively for synthetic fabrics), they lay flat under most fabrics when sized correctly. We tested them under our best-selling pants and the look is sleek.

What's your return policy for underwear?

Due to sanitary reasons, underwear is final sale. If you need help with sizing check out size recommender, fit advice or email us for assistance.

High quality, made locally

Effortless style, quality, comfort, ethics and (genuine) sustainability — we compromise nothing, so you don’t have to either. Proudly one of a handful of Women-owned certified B Corporations that's made in Canada.
