Q for Quinn Natural Undyed Organic Cotton Briefs
GOTS-certified, completely undyed 100% organic cotton body - the cleanest fabric for kids. The only synthetic is a fully-covered elastic strand in the waistband.
The verdict: Minimal plastic contact
The body is 100% GOTS-certified organic cotton, undyed and unbleached, and the sewing thread is organic cotton too - about the cleanest fabric you can put on a child. The single synthetic element is the waistband's covered elastic strand (an OEKO-TEX poly-elastane), which is why it's minimal-contact rather than plastic-free. That covered-elastic waistband is the same compromise across essentially every kids' underwear brand; this is the cleanest version of it.
