The Truth About Thong Comfort:
What You Need to Know

Everyone knows that when life calls for a pair of underwear that won’t ruin an outfit with unsightly panty lines, a thong is generally considered the only way to go. But scoring a thong that looks the way you need it to under your clothes is one thing. Finding one that’s actually comfortable is another.

But don’t write off the idea of comfortable thong underwear as pure mythology just yet. It’s definitely possible to find thongs that deliver both the comfort you want and the “barely there” wear experience you need. As always, we’ve got you covered at Evelyn & Bobbie with innovative options that rewrite the book on everything you think you know about underwear.

Why Don’t More Women Like Thongs?

The right thongs can be virtually invisible under even unforgiving garments like leggings or fitted dresses, making them a necessity at least some of the time. But while some women genuinely do like wearing thongs, over half of women still strongly prefer traditional panty-style underwear for reasons like the following:

The Smoothing Bra Cami, a combined bra and tank, has long been a favorite of many of our customers, as it offers an elegant base layer for any garment. With an ergonomic design and smoothing back and side bands, the Smoothing Bra Cami offers a luxurious mix of contouring and comfort.

Infused with EB Core® Patented Lift, it's a perfect choice for minimizing back and shoulder pain while maximizing confidence. As Bobbie pointed out, the Smoothing Bra Cami also comes in a wide range of stylish colors, from our True Complexion line to limited edition leopard print.

The Evelyn & Bobbie Starlette Plunge Bra is a newer addition that features our lowest neckline to date. Designed to provide invisible comfort and support under any garment, the Starlette Plunge Bra offers adjustable straps and plenty of weightless lift in all the most flattering places.

Not only is the Starlette Plunge Bra designed with built-in anti-odor and moisture-wicking technology, but also offers extra support layers for larger breasts. Whether you’re in search of a bra with an alluring three-dimensional lift or wardrobe versatility, the Starlette Plunge has all your bases covered.

Exploring Our Different Bra Styles

At Evelyn & Bobbie, we firmly believe that a perfect fitting bra is something every woman deserves, and that all women are flawless just as they are. It’s the bras that have been getting it all wrong.

Bra inclusivity is the key to finally getting it right. So, no matter what size, shape, or shade you happen to be, we’ve got you covered with supportive, comfortable, beautiful styles of bras you’ll love.

• Thongs that fit poorly can shift uncomfortably throughout the day, leading to discomfort and chafing.
• Impractical materials and designs can combine with discomfort to contribute to infections and chronic irritation.
• Many women say they don’t like how vulnerable and “uncovered” a thong can make them feel, while others hate that trademark “permanent wedgie” feeling.

So, are thongs comfortable to wear? They certainly can be and should be. However, the impracticalities attached to a lot of what’s out there on the market can make finding a truly comfortable thong challenging.

Can Thongs Be Comfortable?

It’s a common misconception that thong underwear is literally always uncomfortable, as discomfort is pretty much always a sign that your undergarments simply don’t fit properly. That said, the best thongs for comfort are thongs that genuinely fit you well on a level many common options just don’t.

So, how should a thong fit?

• Thong underwear should hug you snugly but without digging into your skin at any point on your body.
• Any straps or seams should fit comfortably over your hips and rear without gapping or slipping.

We assure you that thong comfort is not only a possibility but a reality, thanks to game-changing Evelyn & Bobbie underwear options like our High-Waisted Thong.

In most cases, a comfortable thong fits nearly identically to how any other well-fitting pair of underwear fits. The difference in cut can take some getting used to, but it should never feel uncomfortable on any level.

What Makes an Evelyn & Bobbie Thong Different?

So many women go through life believing that their bodies are the reason it’s not easier to find truly comfortable underwear. But at Evelyn & Bobbie, we see things differently. Great underwear is self-care – something to invest in and treat yourself to because you deserve it.

And big or small, curvy or petite, your body is perfect exactly as it is.

The real problem lies with the underwear you’ve been wearing (and the myths you’ve internalized about how underwear is and isn’t supposed to feel). Here’s a closer look at what sets our unique approach to thong comfort apart from everyone else’s.

Stretchy, comfy fabric

Like our ground-breaking signature bras, our thongs are made of super-soft, breathable fabric with four-way stretch and double-layered bonding for the ultimate in wearable comfort. It’s also lightweight and quick-drying, so it’s easy to forget you’re even wearing it.

Beautiful seamless look

If you’re looking for a thong that takes the guesswork out of stepping out in confidence in leggings, fitted skirts, and similar options, Evelyn & Bobbie has you covered. There won’t be a panty line in sight – just the smooth, seamless look you’ve been dreaming about.

Our thongs also come in a wide range of True Complexion tones, ensuring they stay invisible and undetectable underneath even light-colored fabrics. Just choose the tone closest to your natural skin tone, and you’re all set.

Natural wear experience

Our High-Waisted Thong has a well-earned reputation for being the thong even thong-haters can’t help but love, and with good reason. We’ve designed it to anchor comfortably and naturally in both the front and back, so there’s none of that all-too-familiar “riding up” feeling you might be used to in a thong.

It’s also wide enough in the crotch to keep you covered, accommodate feminine hygiene products, and deliver a completely non-invasive wear experience, making it the most comfortable thong ever.
