It’s breathable, and Goodlife suggests you can use this t-shirt for a workout. Because it’s mostly synthetic, it holds its color and shape really well, even through dozens of washes.
This is Goodlife’s most durable weave, and it’s made from a blend of polyester, rayon, and cotton. While you’ll be able to see the fit from the photos, I’ll also dive into the differences between these fabrics and why you’d choose one over the other.įirst up: the Tri-Blend Scallop Crew. If you didn’t know, there are several different blends and dyes, though they all fit identically as far as I can tell. Goodlife T-Shirtsīoy, did I get a haul of Goodlife t-shirts. But tees aren’t all that Goodlife does, so I also picked up a few other pieces to see how the brand is faring outside t-shirt land. Goodlife got their start with t-shirts, and that’s where I’ll spend the majority of this review. And while I do feel it’s worth paying extra for clothes you love (not just from Goodlife, but in general), not everyone has the budget to spend $50+ on a t-shirt. Goodlife Clothing isn’t for bargain-hunters. If you’re worried about visible panty lines or are wearing pants that are NOT super high rise, you may not want to wear something like this that may, occasionally, peek out between a shirt and pants during a stretch.You can expect to pay a bit for that top-tier fabric and construction quality. The leg is not French-cut, so the style is not as elongating as some of the others, but there’s something appealingly retro about the look. They are not for the faint of high-rise, as they will hit your belly button, but they feel like a nice hug in that way. They felt simultaneously sturdy and so soft, classic and special. The thought that Hanes puts into this line is evident when you slip a pair on. In addition to all the good values that Lake Jane stands for, the undies stood out from every other pair I tried for their comfort and style. “I like to think of and inspire my customers to think about clothing in the same way we think about food and that what we put on our bodies is just as important as what we put in them,” Hanes says of her choice to use and source local cotton, noting its breathability and recyclability. Hanes told me that she decided to launch the line after “having a hard time finding plain black cotton underwear.” The choices, she said, were either “Gap, where they were always out of size in the simple colors and cuts, uncomfortable sizing and questionable dyes and fabrics from Target, or $80 undies from Switzerland.” And so she set out to make her own, in classic styles and cuts using cotton from local mills near her hometown in North Carolina. Lake Jane is a very small brand thoughtfully designed and made in the USA (mostly in North Carolina) by Katherine Hanes (no relation to her competitors of the same name!). I didn’t know cotton underwear could feel so luxurious! This brand was enthusiastically recommended to me by another Glossier team member and she was not wrong. So I looked around, asked a lot of people, and over the course of a few weeks tested a lot of underwear.
Being a mom who wants to wear comfortable, cotton underwear shouldn’t relegate me to “granny panties” and I knew there had to be better options out there. Julia Jaffe, a gynecologist at Gramercy Gynecology notes that “there’s no clear evidence” linking wearing synthetic underwear to infection, she notes that “it’s plausible that wearing cotton underwear may decrease the risk of UTI and vaginitis because it avoids trapping heat and moisture.”) I also wanted to find underwear that was cute. Having a baby wreaks havoc on your vagina, and, afterward, you want to be as nice to it as possible. I wanted to wear breathable cotton or natural fibers only. After I nixed thongs, I also ousted other styles I deemed too uncomfortable: boy shorts, half-thongs, and anything low-rise. I wanted to be able to grab a pair from the drawer and know that it would always be “the good pair.” I wanted my underwear to be comfortable, above all else. I shoved my lacy Cosabellas to a back corner of my underwear drawer and forgot they were there.Īs I adjusted to being a mother while also being a person who works a demanding, fast-paced job, I decided I wanted my underwear to do more for me by doing less. Nothing like labor-induced hemorrhoids to foster a feeling of never wanting to put a string of fabric there ever again.
After I had a baby I swore off thongs for good.
