Today: Our ultimate guide to women’s underwear. Plus …
The best women’s underwear |
 |
| Ruthie Darling/NYT Wirecutter |
Don’t settle for underwear that pinches, pulls, and tugs in all the wrong places. Over the years, our style experts — with the help of a diverse panel of testers — have tried 90 pairs, and found standouts that should inspire you to evict those rejects from your drawer.
Some of our brand-new recommendations? Wonderfully smooth, whisper-light briefs, a marvelously forgettable thong, and a smoothing, high-waisted pair that virtually disappears under clothing.

This robe is indulgently soft, easy to move in, and wonderfully absorbent for drying off post-shower. It’s essentially a wearable towel, in the best way.

Gift of the week: A sassy chef’s hat |
 |
| Inside Joke |
This embroidered, one-size-fits-most baseball hat is a perfect topper for any cook in repose. Perhaps give it alongside the gift of a night (or two) off from dinner duty?
Yes, chef→
One last thing: This underwear claims to use zinc to prevent odors. We tested it. |
 |
| NYT Wirecutter |
These zinc-infused undies promise to stave off infections, soothe skin, and keep bacteria at bay. There’s not enough science to prove these claims, but after walking, running, sweating, and sitting through long-haul flights in 10 different styles, our testers found some other things to like about these undies.
