Briefs With Legs – Boxer Shorts for Women

Short answer: Briefs with legs, often called boxer shorts or shorts for women, cover the top of the thigh and stop your thighs from chafing against each other. In soft bamboo viscose you also get a style that breathes and sits flat under your clothes.

Why choose briefs with legs?

The short leg protects the inside of your thighs, which is especially welcome under dresses in summer and on long walks. The legs also hold the brief in place so it does not ride up. Look for styles with legs in the range of bamboo briefs.

Bamboo makes the difference against chafing thighs

When skin rubs against skin, moisture is a big part of the problem. Bamboo viscose moves sweat away and keeps the skin drier, so there is less friction. Read more about what the fabric can do in the guide to bamboo and temperature regulation.

Which clothes do they work under?

Boxer shorts for women work best under dresses, skirts and loose trousers. Under very tight trousers the leg edge can sometimes show, and there an ordinary brief may be better.
