When transitioning into ethical fashion it’s so easy to get caught up in the pretty pieces that the world sees that we often overlook the lesser-seen pieces…like our undies.
But what we wear underneath our clothes is arguably the most important. I’ve talked about the importance of chemical-free and organic clothing before and that extends to our undergarments. These pieces directly touch our skin, our largest organ.
It’s important to protect our skin and our bodies from these chemicals by choosing sustainably and ethically made pieces.

6 Ethical Underwear brands:
Azura Bay
Azura Bay is an amazing curated shop that is home to many well known ethical brands including organic basics, only hearts, cosabella, Groceries apparel, Sokoloff (Including their organic cotton and organic bamboo) and more!
They make it easy to shop for all your ethical undies, lingerie and loungewear needs by getting all the best brands together on one site! This is especially helpful for us Canadians because it’s a Canadian run business! (Meaning no duties/taxes! Yay!)
Azura Bay truly has it all but if you’re not quite sold yet, they also donate a portion of every single purchase to one of three amazing organizations like Nature Conservancy of Canada, Because I am a Girl, and WWF Canada.
They also ship all their orders in eco-friendly packaging including recycled boxes and compostable poly mailers.
I was lucky enough to receive a few items from Azura Bay and I was absolutely blown away by the quality, customer service, fast shipping and the products themselves! For all my Canadian readers, this is definitely a one-stop-shop for all your ethical underwear and loungewear needs!
Everlane
Everlane has a small selection of gorgeous, everyday underwear. From bodysuits to bralettes to just about every style of underwear including bikini, high-rise hipsters, low rise hipsters, and thongs.
The best part is that all of the underwear is 3 for $27 which, trust me is way better than Victoria’s Secret’s 7 for $30 because these are made out of Supima cotton. Which, as we know, cotton is the absolute best fabric you want downstairs. Plus, no forced labor was used to make the undies! Score!
Naja
Naja is another favorite on this list. I just love everything they stand for. Their goal is to empower women, not objectify them. They use women of all shapes, sizes, and ages in their campaigns!
Their garment factory mainly employs single mothers or female heads of household and pay them above minimum wage so they can provide for their families. Every child of a naja employee receives school supplies and books and their school meals paid for by naja.
Naja has everything you could imagine from underwear, thongs, seamless undies, t-shirt bras, bralettes, bustiers, unlined, lined and even activewear.
PACT
Using only certified organic cotton, these garments will make you feel like royalty. PACT refuses to use toxic dyes and pesticides in the production of their products making them not only safe for you but safe for the planet as well.
PACT offers women, men’s and children’s clothes but most notable for their incredibly soft and luxurious intimates.
This is a quality that you don’t want to pass on.
Boody
Your one-stop-shop for all your basic needs including underwear for men and women, bras, socks and activewear like leggings and sports bras. They even have apparel for babies.
All clothing is made from sustainably grown and sourced organic bamboo.
Majamas
Every piece of fabric used in these garments is sourced, made and sewn in the united states. They use eco-friendly materials like organic cotton, Tencel and modal.
You can find bras and panties and underwear for men as well as an abundance of other products including apparel and loungewear and clothes for babies too.
These are my top picks! Each is different and unique and offers something different from the rest. But they all share the same values for our planet and the people that live on it.
