Children's underwear is in direct contact with the most sensitive and absorptive areas of the body for 16+ hours daily. Conventional children's underwear often contains PFAS moisture-wicking treatments, synthetic dyes, formaldehyde anti-wrinkle finishes, and synthetic elastic (spandex/Lycra). Children's skin is more permeable than adult skin, and their developing bodies are more vulnerable to endocrine-disrupting chemicals.
Why We Recommend This Product
Hanna Andersson's GOTS-certified organic cotton underwear is the gold standard for children's intimate apparel. For boys' underwear worn 16+ hours daily, organic cotton is the most important fabric choice.
