The Best Breathable Underwear for Working Out

Running, hot Pilates, or sweating it out at the gym—whatever your go-to workout, you’ve likely put thought into your activewear. Supportive sports bras, breathable leggings, the perfect trainers… but what about your underwear? If your workout drawer is packed with synthetic, tight, or non-breathable undies, you could be setting yourself up for irritation, discomfort, and even vaginal infections like thrush and UTIs.
Why the Wrong Undies Can Cause Issues
Let’s talk about what happens when you sweat. Your body heats up, moisture builds, airflow is restricted, and bad bacteria start to thrive. If you're wearing synthetic underwear, it will trap moisture instead of wicking it away, creating the perfect environment for bacteria to multiply and increasing your risk of:
-
Chafing & irritation: Friction from moisture trapped by non-breathable fabrics can lead to uncomfortable rashes and redness.
-
Bacterial & yeast infections: A damp, warm environment = the perfect breeding ground for bacteria that cause infections like thrush and BV.
-
Odour buildup: Sweat and bacteria go hand in hand, leading to unwanted odours that can linger long after your workout.
