There are a lot of cute underwear options out there \u2014 mesh, modal, barely-there lace \u2014 but when your skin is feeling sensitive, the humidity is at 90%, or you\u2019re just trying to get through the summer day sans swamp, there\u2019s really only one fabric that deserves the crown: cotton. <\/p>\n

Cotton underwear isn\u2019t just the OG for comfort \u2014 it\u2019s better for your body. The fabric is naturally breathable and soft on skin, making it a go-to for anyone prone to irritation or chafing. Unlike synthetics (looking at you, nylon), cotton doesn\u2019t trap heat and, worse, moisture (which can lead to bacteria). That\u2019s a big deal if you\u2019ve ever dealt with discomfort or that not-so-fresh feeling after a long day in tight, non-breathable undies. In short: cotton keeps things cool and dry where it counts. <\/p>\n

That\u2019s not to say you can\u2019t wear whatever you want \u2014 your body, your rules. But if you\u2019re looking to upgrade your underwear drawer this summer, with pieces that check both the cute and practical boxes, this edit is it. Every pick here is made from at least 70% cotton (with most in the 90%-to-100% range), so you\u2019re getting all the benefits of breathability without compromising on style. <\/p>\n

From no-show thongs and comfy bikinis to cozy briefs, boyshorts, and easy cotton bras, we did the digging to find the softest, cutest, and highly-rated pairs.<\/p>\n

Cotton Thongs<\/strong><\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Ideal for no-show days, cotton thongs offer minimal coverage. These styles combine soft fabrics with a stay-put waistband for a comfortable fit that doesn\u2019t dig or shift throughout the day.<\/p>\n

Cotton Bikini Underwear<\/strong><\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

A reliable everyday option, bikini underwear features a mid-rise waistband and moderate back coverage. The breathable cotton construction helps reduce moisture buildup and irritation, making this a versatile pick for daily wear.<\/p>\n

Cotton Briefs<\/strong><\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Designed with a higher rise and full back coverage, briefs are a favorite for their secure fit and all-day comfort. In cotton, they feel soft against the skin and provide breathable support \u2014 ideal for those with sensitive skin or anyone seeking more coverage.<\/p>\n

Cotton Hipster Underwear<\/strong><\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Hipster cuts sit low on the hips with slightly more coverage than bikinis but less than briefs. These styles are great under mid-rise bottoms and offer comfort with enough stretch to move with you without riding up.<\/p>\n

Cotton Boyshorts & Boxers\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

With a wider leg opening and longer cut, boyshorts and boxers are a comfortable choice. Their smooth, non-binding silhouette helps prevent lines under loose shorts or flowy dresses \u2014 or work on their own as loungewear or sleepwear bottoms.<\/p>\n

Cotton Bras<\/h2>\n
<\/figure>\n

Cotton bras offer lightweight support and a softer, more breathable feel than many synthetic, underwire options. From unlined bralettes to lightly padded styles, these picks prioritize comfort without sacrificing shape or structure.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
