Key features & specs

How it compares

The KENT 100% Plant-Based Brief compares favorably against organic cotton-spandex blends and lightweight merino wool liners. While traditional "cotton" underwear often contains 5-10% spandex (a plastic), KENT uses a proprietary plant-based elastic. This makes the brief fully breathable and eliminates the itchiness often associated with wool-based intimates.

How to use it

1. Wear as a daily base layer for maximum comfort and breathability.
2. Machine wash cold with like colors using a gentle detergent.
3. Tumble dry low or air dry to maintain the integrity of the plant-based elastic.
4. Once the garment reaches the end of its life, cut it into small pieces and add to your home compost bin.

Sustainability & ethics

KENT ensures that every component, from the thread to the tags, is derived from plants. The Pima cotton is sourced from family-owned farms in Peru, and the manufacturing process uses no toxic dyes or finishes. This creates a product that is not only vegan but chemically safe for the wearer's most sensitive areas.
