Other than waking up on the right side of the bed, your comfort starts with the first thing you put on: your underwear.
This is true on hikes, too—well, scratch that—it’s especially true. Your undies might not get as much attention as sturdy boots or a weatherproof jacket, but nothing puts a damper on your day like chafing.
With the right Paire, you can stay dry, fresh, and irritation-free from trailhead to summit and back. So don’t risk cutting your hike short. Here’s how we’ve got your back no matter what the trail brings.
Chafing No More, Prevent It Before It Starts
The dreaded chafe: a hiker’s worst nightmare. Ill-fitting or poorly designed underwear with bulky seams can rub and irritate your skin after just a few metres. We’re keeping it smoother, softer, and easy-breezy with NudeTech™ and RegSilk™ fabrics. With seamless and flat seams options, you can enjoy buttery smooth, friction-free comfort—add a skip to your step with drama-free knickers.
Keep It Cool and Dry, All Day Long
When you’re spending hours trekking through changing terrains and weather, regular undies just don’t cut it. The wrong pair might cause discomfort, itchiness, or even ruin your mood. Plus, sweaty undies lead to unnecessary chafing.
Instead, skip grumbling away in soggy underwear and choose moisture-wicking fabrics. We’re reinventing comf—nology to keep things breathable and soft to keep you feeling fresh whether you’re tackling steep inclines or enjoying a leisurely walk.
Kilometres Of Odour-Free Strides
Long hikes can mean long hours in your gear, and next to staying away from chafing, odour-resistant underwear is your secret weapon.
Our natural blend keeps bacteria at bay, so you don’t go home smelling like the trail. Feel fresh for longer, even on multi-day adventures. Our undies let you go from 3-day hikes to an equally ambitious Netflix binge with no worries or wedgies. Odour-absorbing and organic-combed—it’ll mean everything to your skin (and your hiking buddies too).
Softer, Smoother & Oh-So Breathable
Hiking can be hot and humid, and bulky underwear will only weigh you down. Ultra-breathable, lightweight designs let air flow freely, so you stay cool, comfortable, and most importantly, chafe-free even during intense climbs.
Ours are half the weight with double the absorption. This means your undies help regulate your body temperature, preventing overheating and ensuring your pants are free from embarrassing sweat patches.
Made to Last Long & Dry Quick
The trail can be unpredictable, and just like your spirit, your undies should be tough enough to handle it.
Durable fabrics that stay snug and comfy even after a wash-and-wear routine are essential for backpackers, frequent travellers, and multi-day treks. Quick-drying materials also have the bonus of keeping gear clean and ready to go by the morning—no more waiting around for damp undies!
Cuts, Fits & Styles: There’s Something for Every Hiker
Just like the seasons, your needs change according to the intensity of your hike. Paire keeps it consistent with undies that don’t itch. Because in our world, comfort comes first.
Choose from:
- Briefs: A go-to for many, a classic for a reason. Briefs provide sufficient support and are perfect for hikers who prefer a simple, snug fit.
- Boxers: For those seeking extra coverage, boxers prevent chafing on the inner thighs and are ideal for longer hikes or high-energy activities.
- Bikinis & Thongs: Don’t be too quick to dismiss these minimal options. Breathable, quick-drying and trail-friendly, these cheeky faves are ideal for avoiding visible lines for a silky smooth touch.
- High-Waisted Cuts: Like a little more coverage and support? High-waisted underwear offers just that, ensuring a secure fit that stays in place even on challenging treks.
Caring for Your Paire
Your hiking underwear works hard to keep you comfortable, and like any relationship, it deserves to be treated right. Proper care not only extends its life but also ensures it continues to perform its best, hike after hike. Here’s how to give them some TLC:
Step 1: Keep It Cool & Gentle
You can chuck your hiking underwear in the machine, but stick to a gentle cycle. Keep the water cool (below 30ºC) to maintain those moisture-wicking properties. Trust us, your undies will thank you.
Step 2: Soap, but Make It Mild
Skip the heavy-duty detergents, bleach, and fabric softeners. These can mess with your underwear’s ability to manage moisture and regulate your body temperature. Stick to mild soap and keep things simple.
Step 3: Line Dry, Let Air Do Its Magic
Tumble dryers might be speedy, but they’re no friend to your undies. Lay your underwear flat to air dry in the shade. It’s gentle on the fabric and kinder to the planet. Win-win! Plus, it keeps everything in shape for the long haul.
With these easy steps, your Paire will be ready to support you through every trail, trek, and tumble.
