Why wear Hemp Undies?
Why hemp?
Hemp is a game-changer when it comes to fabric, especially for underwear. Naturally anti-bacterial and odor-resistant, it’s breathable, super comfortable, and only gets softer with every wash. Plus, hemp is organic, eco-friendly, and a powerhouse for sustainability—making it the perfect choice for your undies. Honestly, the question isn’t why wear hemp, but why not?
That’s where WAMA comes in. Their hemp fabric is dyed in an Oeko-Tex Certified facility, ensuring it’s free from harmful substances and safe for your skin. While their manufacturing is based in China—where hemp growth and processing are unparalleled—WAMA prioritizes fair wages and safe working environments for their workers. They’re certified by the Business Social Compliance Initiative, which promotes ethical practices and good working conditions. With their commitment to quality and sustainability, WAMA is setting a high standard for hemp clothing done right.
I was approached by WAMA to share their product in September & November and I have to admit it is really scary to say, “Yes, I will wear your underwear on my Instagram feed/internet”. I decided to collaborate with WAMA because of their numerous certifications and quality products. While I did get these pieces in black it is more like charcoal. So if that is important to you, I'm letting you know! After choosing these products they made available a variety of nude tones and have a lovely WAMA green. (See below!)
As a woman, can I be honest? I hate wearing a bra. And yet it is exactly how I feel. Thankfully, the resurgence of the bralette has made this undergarment, a bit more comfortable. This triangle bralette from WAMA is surprisingly comfortable. It has adjustable straps, and a traditional hook & eye in the back so there is no uncomfortable maneuvering it up and over your head. I love that this bralette is wire-free and padding-free, seems like really low standards for the word bralette, I can tell you I've seen so many 'bralettes' with wire and cups.
I especially love these boyshorts from WAMA, they are perfect to wear with skirts and dresses and don’t feel revealing. Unlike hipsters, they don’t ride up. Unlike bikinis, they don’t get loose, and if you know you know. I have never been a fan of skimpy underwear, it doesn’t do me any good. These boyshorts have an actual leg to them and somewhere between a mid and a high rise which let’s be honest is the superior cut. The High Rise panties, which I got in November in green are so soft and comfy. Perfect to wear with my high-rise skinny jeans, which may be the only bottoms I don't like wearing my boyshorts with.
Let's talk sizing, I got an extra small in the triangle bralette and am a 32B and a small in the boyshorts and I am a 4 or 27" hip. Plus they have a very helpful sizing guide to help you discern your size.
So, why not upgrade your underwear game with super comfy hemp undies? They’re better for the planet—using less water and no microplastics—and better for your body, thanks to safe dyes and a super-soft feel that’s perfect for sensitive skin. Treat yourself and the environment to a win-win!
