Underwear is in direct, prolonged contact with some of the body's most sensitive and absorptive skin. Synthetic fabrics release microplastics and phthalates through dermal absorption. For children, whose skin is thinner and more permeable, this exposure is particularly concerning.
Why We Recommend This Product
Gap's organic cotton line is a solid mainstream option. GOTS certification for the cotton is meaningful, though the spandex waistband is a minor concern. A good choice for parents transitioning away from conventional synthetic underwear.
