Collection: Plus Size Panties for Women

Generally speaking, the XL usually fits a 38 to 40-inch waist, while the 2XL fits a 40 to 42-inch waist.

To determine the correct size for your underwear, you'll need to take a few key measurements.

Measure the waist: Find your natural waistline, which is usually the narrowest part of your waist, usually just above your belly button. Measure this area with a tape measure, making sure the tape is level at the waist. This measurement will help determine your size based on the flat waist width provided by the panty size chart.

Measure your hips: Standing with your feet together, measure the fullest part of your hips. This is usually 7 to 9 inches below your natural waistline. Make sure the tape measure is straight and parallel to the floor. It's important to measure at the hips because this is where panties are usually placed, and the measurement should fit comfortably without being too tight or too loose.

Consider crotch depth: This is the length from the front waist through the crotch to the back waist. We have prepared information on the crotch depth of panties for you to compare with your own body's comfort and wearing preferences.

Flat Waist Width 16.14" is usually the waist measurement of a garment such as trousers, skirts, or underwear when laid flat on a surface. The measurement from one side of the waistband to the other is 16.14 inches. To get the full waist circumference, you usually have to double this measurement, which in this case is about 32.28 inches. This measurement helps to determine the size of the garment and ensure a good fit. For our womens plus size panties, a flat waist width of 16.14 is also a 7XL.

Crotch depth refers to the measurement from the top of the waistband (at the front) down through the crotch to the top of the waistband at the back. This measurement is used to determine the vertical distance in pants, underwear, or swimsuits, ensuring that the garment has enough room to fit comfortably around the body from the front waistband, through the legs, to the back waistband. It's an important measurement for achieving a proper fit, particularly in tailored or form-fitting clothing.

Cotton is widely regarded as the ideal fabric for panties, prized for its softness, breathability, and durability. Its natural ability to absorb moisture and gentle feel against the skin makes cotton underwear a comfortable choice for daily use.

Whether cotton or nylon panties are better depends on your personal needs and preferences:

Cotton Panties:

• Pros: Cotton is soft, breathable, and absorbs moisture well, making it comfortable for everyday wear and ideal for maintaining good hygiene. It's also hypoallergenic, making it a great choice for those with sensitive skin.
• Cons: Cotton can retain moisture longer than synthetic fabrics, which might be uncomfortable in humid conditions or during intense physical activity. It also may not provide as smooth of a fit under tighter clothing.

Nylon Panties:

• Pros: Nylon is lightweight, exceptionally smooth, and dries quickly. It provides a sleek fit under clothes, making it suitable for tighter outfits. Nylon also maintains its shape and colour well after multiple washes.
• Cons: It's less breathable than cotton and can trap heat and moisture, potentially leading to discomfort or irritation, especially in warmer climates or for those with sensitive skin.

Antimicrobial panties are undergarments treated with antimicrobial agents to inhibit the growth of bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms. This treatment helps reduce odors, prevent infections, and maintain a fresher feeling throughout the day. These panties are particularly beneficial for individuals who are active, live in warmer climates, or are prone to infections. By controlling the growth of microbes, antimicrobial panties promote better hygiene and comfort. However, it's important to note that while these panties can help reduce the risk of microbial growth, they should complement proper personal hygiene practices, not replace them.
