The Undershort: Your Summer Staple is Here

Let's talk about undershorts. The newest addition to our Y.O.U collection, and your new best friend, our undershorts are perfect for summer. Read on to find out why...

Anti-chafing shorts for warm weather

Our light-weight undershorts are designed to be work discreetly to protect from thigh-rubbing and irritation. Part of our signature, soft, organic cotton underwear range, our undershorts are naturally moisture-absorbing and kind to sensitive skin. 

Unlike synthetic shapewear, the breathable organic cotton allows airflow to keep you cool. Our organic cotton fabric is also sustainably sourced and free from harsh chemicals, making it a healthier choice for your skin and the planet.

These are cleverly-designed undershorts to reduce friction and allow you to move through the day with comfort. They feature a stretchy, elasticated waistband, no itchy, internal labels, and a side-slit to allow for ease of movement.

She wears the Black Undershorts, and stands in front of greenery. In the right hand image, the model faces front on, with one leg slightly in front of the other. She wears the Light Pink Undershorts, and stands in front of a tiled wall.

Discreet shorts under dresses

The reason these are the best underwear option for summer, is that they provide a little extra coverage under dresses and skirts! Their longer-leg design means that you can move through your day without a care, safe in the knowledge that your undershorts have got you covered, literally! Whether you hate having your legs crossed (thanks, patriarchy), or love turning cartwheels, undershorts offer an antidote to any short-skirt paranoia.

Choose between classic black, or a light pink for a more neutral colour under lighter clothes. Can't decide? Save £4 with a two-pack! Birds-eye view image of two people laying on a red picnic rug playing cards. They are both wearing the YOU Organic Cotton Undershorts under skirts.

Sleep shorts, women's boxers, activewear...you name it!

Undershorts might be the most versatile item in your underwear drawer.

If you're looking for longer women's underwear, these make great women's boxer shorts, with a bit more leg length that our organic cotton boyshorts.

Alternatively, the stretchy waistband and side slit, makes them a comfortable choice for sleep shorts.

 But why keep them hidden? Our undershorts provide a sleek, contemporary silhouette which, paired with the breathable fabric, makes them a great option for activewear. Shorts for the gym, yoga, or hiking; these promise to keep you comfortable all day long. Complete the outfit with an organic cotton vest or camisole, for a naturally breathable, eco-friendly alternative to synthetic sportswear.

The model on the left wears the YOU Organic Cotton Undershorts in Black, with a Black Camisole, and headphones round her neck, holding the bike. The model on the right wears the YOU Organic Cotton Undershorts in Light Pink, with a white camisole. She also has headphones around her neck and holds a blue water bottle. They both look over their right.

 And if exercise isn't your thing, what better clothes to lounge in than shorts that give back with every purchase? As with all of our underwear, every purchase of our undershorts results in a donation to the wonderful charity, Smalls For All or Maggie's cancer charity (for the pink).
