Why Longer Gussets Make A Difference

When it comes to women’s underwear, finding the perfect balance between comfort, functionality, and durability can feel like a never-ending quest. La Coochie believes that every detail matters, especially when it comes to designing underwear that supports women’s bodies in the best way possible. One of the most overlooked yet crucial aspects of women’s underwear is the gusset—and we’ve made it our mission to do it right.

That’s why our gusset is longer and slightly wider, and it is sewn down with superior stitching to make it more comfortable, durable, and protective. 

What Is a Gusset, and Why Does It Matter?


The gusset is a panel of fabric sewn into the crotch area of women’s underwear. This small yet vital piece of fabric plays a significant role in providing support, absorbing moisture, and ensuring overall comfort. Despite its importance, other brands cut corners when it comes to the gusset, which compromises both functionality and durability.

Here’s why the gusset matters:

  • Comfort: A properly designed gusset prevents chafing and enhances fit.

  • Hygiene: It helps wick away moisture and keeps you feeling fresh all day.

  • Durability: Quality stitching and fabric ensure the underwear holds up over time.

We’ve taken the gusset to the next level by designing women’s organic cotton underwear with longer and slightly wider gussets that cater to your anatomy and lifestyle.


Why Long Gusset Underwear Is a Must-Have


Most traditional underwear features gussets that are too short, leading to discomfort and inadequate coverage. Long gussets, on the other hand, are a game-changer for women who value comfort and practicality.

Here’s what makes long gussets so essential:

  1. Better Coverage: A longer gusset provides full coverage for women of all shapes and sizes, reducing the risk of fabric bunching or riding up.

  2. Anatomical Fit: Long gussets align with the natural contours of your body, offering support where it’s needed most.

  3. Enhanced Comfort: Whether you’re sitting at a desk, working out, or running errands, the extended gusset prevents irritation and keeps you feeling comfortable all day long.

Wide Gusset Underwear: Comfort That Supports Your Lifestyle


While the length of the gusset is crucial, its width is equally important. We made our gusset slightly wider to provide further comfort and support, especially for women with active lifestyles.

Why choose wider gusset underwear?

  • Improved Stability: A wider gusset ensures the underwear stays in place, preventing awkward adjustments throughout the day.

  • Enhanced Absorbency: The additional fabric in a wide gusset offers better moisture management, keeping you dry and comfortable.

  • Anatomical Support: Wide gussets distribute pressure more evenly, reducing discomfort during prolonged wear.

The Secret Is in the Stitching: Why We Sew Our Gussets Down


One of the biggest differences between our underwear and most other brands is our commitment to sewing the gusset all the way around. Many brands skip this step because it adds extra cost and complexity to manufacturing. However, we believe it’s worth every penny.

Here’s why fully stitched gussets matter:

  1. Durability: Gussets that are sewn all the way around are less likely to tear or fray, even after multiple washes.

  2. Hygiene: Fully stitched gussets eliminate gaps where bacteria and moisture can accumulate.

  3. Comfort: The secure stitching ensures the gusset lies flat, preventing irritation and discomfort.

When not sewn down, gussets can roll up or shift out of place during wear, causing discomfort and irritation. Not only does it compromis the fit but also leads to chafing and the potential for skin irritation. A securely of a sewn-down gusset stays in place, providing a smoother, more comfortable experience throughout the day.

By investing in this extra step, we’re able to provide women’s underwear that lasts longer, feels better, and performs beautifully over time.


Organic Cotton Underwear: A Sustainable Choice for Women


All of our women’s underwear is made from organic cotton, and for good reason. Organic cotton is better for the environment and gentler on your skin. Here’s why organic cotton underwear is the ultimate choice:

  • Breathability: Organic cotton allows your skin to breathe, reducing the risk of irritation and infections.

  • Hypoallergenic: Free from harmful chemicals and synthetic fibers, organic cotton is perfect for sensitive skin.

  • Sustainability: Choosing organic cotton supports sustainable farming practices and reduces environmental impact.

When paired with our long gusset, organic cotton takes your comfort and safety to the next level, making our underwear a more quality, long-lasting option. 

Wash Performance and Durability: Underwear That Stands the Test of Time

Let’s face it: underwear goes through a lot. From daily wear to frequent washing, it’s essential to invest in pieces that can handle the demands of your lifestyle. Our organic cotton underwear is designed with durability in mind, thanks to features like fully stitched gussets and high-quality fabric.

What sets our underwear apart in terms of wash performance?

  • Reinforced Stitching: Our gussets are sewn all the way around to prevent fraying and ensure longevity.

  • Colorfast Fabric: Organic cotton retains its color and softness, even after multiple washes.

  • Shape Retention: Unlike synthetic fabrics, organic cotton maintains its shape over time, ensuring perfect fit wear after wear.

With proper care, our underwear is built to last, making it a smart and sustainable investment for your wardrobe.

Why Most Brands Don’t Sew Down Their Gussets—And Why We Do


Many underwear brands choose not to sew their gussets all the way around to save on production costs. While this might cut corners for the manufacturer, it compromises the quality and durability of the underwear. We don’t take shortcuts. By fully stitching our gussets, we’re able to offer superior comfort, hygiene, and durability—all without sacrificing style.
