Lindbergh underpants seen through everyday eyes
Short answer: Lindbergh underpants should be judged by the same things as any other underpants, namely fit, waistband, leg and fabric in an ordinary day. The brand name does not tell you whether they suit you. Here is a sober way to assess them.
Start with your day and not the brand
A brand name says little about how a pair of underpants feels after eight hours. Ask yourself instead what you need them for. Sitting at a desk, taking a walk, training or travelling. The answer decides which qualities count most for you in daily life.
The size decides more than the name
Measure your hips and compare with the size guide for the model you are looking at. Sizes vary between brands, so never guess from another pair. If you fall between two sizes, think about whether you want them loose or close. Also see bamboo underpants for men.
Lindbergh underpants and the waistband
When you assess Lindbergh underpants, start with the waistband. Sit down and lean forward. If it cuts in or rolls, it is not good enough for you. A flat, soft waistband lies calmly and you quickly forget it. It is often that one detail that decides whether a pair gets worn.
The leg and the length
Leg length decides whether the underpants ride up at the thighs. With strong thighs the leg should be longer, and with slim thighs a shorter leg can be fine. Walk, sit and stand up, and notice where the fabric ends without you having to adjust it.
The fabric and the material label
Always read the material label in the description and on the tag. It shows which fibres the fabric is made of and whether there is elastane in it. Do not assume anything about a brand's materials in advance. Bamboo clothing is viscose made from bamboo, and that is stated in the product description.
Washing, care and lifespan
Follow the care label and avoid high heat in the machine and the tumble dryer so the waistband and fabric keep their shape. Keep several pairs in circulation so each pair gets a rest between washes. That extends the life of any brand and is a cheap way to get more out of your underwear.
Compare with other brands
It pays to compare several brands in the same fit, because the differences only become clear when you hold them against each other. Also look at JBS and try one pair of each before you buy more. Then you get an honest feel for it.
A short checklist before you buy
Measure your hips, check the leg length, read the material label and notice the waistband. Wear them for a whole day before you decide. Once you have found a pair that works, buy more of the same cut and add bamboo T-shirts for men.
Frequently asked questions
Are Lindbergh underpants good
It depends on what you value. Judge fit, waistband, leg length and fabric, and wear a pair for a whole day before you buy more. A brand name alone does not tell you whether they suit you.
How do I find the right size
Measure your hips with a soft tape measure and compare with the size guide for that exact model. Sizes can vary between brands, so do not use another pair as your guide.
How do I look after my underpants
Follow the care label, avoid high heat in the machine and the tumble dryer, and keep several pairs in circulation. That way the waistband and fabric keep their shape longer, whichever brand you choose.
