The Best Workout Underwear For Your Next Gym Session

You spend time making sure you have the perfect leggings for the gym, the right sneakers, and a good sports bra to keep the girls in place. But have you ever given your undies a second thought?

No one wants to show up to yoga or CrossFit with a visible panty line peeking through your tights, or even worse, your panties showing while squatting! It's easy to throw on the pair of undies at the top of your drawer, but try switching 'regular old panties' for comfortable underwear for exercise. You may be surprised how the best workout underwear can change your gym routine!

We're big advocates of wearing the right undergarments here at Triumph. Take a look at the best underwear for gym to keep you cool, comfy, and wedgie-free during your next workout - no matter which type of exercise you're into!

Style #1: Thongs / G-Strings

Thongs are usually one of those items that you either love 'em or hate 'em. If thongs are your thing, it's important to remember to avoid fabric that's non-breathable, lacy, or silky. Lace and silk can tear easily, and cotton becomes drenched with sweat.

To feel like you're wearing nothing while at the gym or running errands in your yoga pants, we love the sloggi Zero Feel String. This G-String is made using a soft, breathable, stretchy fabric for the ultimate no-show best workout underwear.

Best For:

• Yoga
• Pilates
• Dance Cardio
• Medium Intensity Workouts

Style #2: Hipsters

Hipsters are a combination of bikini-style undies and boyshorts. There's good coverage in the front and the back, but if you don't get the right pair, you run the risk of everyone at the gym seeing your dreaded visible panty line.

If your go-to workout outfit is a pair of running shorts or tights, check out no-show options like the sloggi Zero Feel Hipster. These sit close to the body and feel like a second skin. The seam-free edges mean no more underwear lines digging, poking, or sticking out while you're trying to finish up your workout routine.

Another pair of the best workout underwear we can't get enough of is the sloggi Active Hipster. Similar in style to our sloggi Zero Feel Hipster with seamless edges, this extremely stretchable hipster with strong moisture absorbency and mesh knitting fabric, helps keep you extra cool and comfy during a more intense workout.

Best For:

• High-Intensity Workouts
• Lifting
• Cardio
• Cross-Training
• Boxing/Kickboxing
• Triathlon

Style #3: Sports Shorts

Sports Shorts are the perfect combination of bike shorts, high-intensity workout shorts, and underwear! If you need the best underwear for gym sessions and don't want to feel like you have double fabric layers, try our Triaction Sports Shorts. The light, breathable, moisture-wicking fabric helps keep you dry and cool during your workout.

Alternatively, if shorts or boyleg undies are your thing, we have the new sloggi Active Short. Designed for freedom of movement with super stretchy fabric that absorbs moisture to keep you cool, yet still seamless if you are keen to add another layer.

Best For:

• Running/Jogging
• All-Intensity Workouts
• Total Body Workouts
• Rowing, Barre, & Spin
• CrossFit
• Triathlon

Style #4: High-Rise

If you're looking for the best workout underwear that gives you a little more coverage without bunching, tugging, or pulling on your skin, the sloggi Wow Comfort Highwaist Brief gives you the same sloggi softness with invisible lines while providing more coverage. High-rise underwear usually hits right up near your belly button.

Best For:

• Walking
• Jogging
• Yoga
• Light-Intensity Workouts

And that rounds up our list of the best workout underwear. Remember when you're on the hunt for your perfect pair of workout undies, consider the fit, material, and type of workout routine you plan to do that day.
