If you’ve ever wondered why your child constantly complains about their underwear — tugging, itching, overheating — you’re not alone. Most kids’ underwear on the market is made with synthetic or cotton-blend fabrics that can trap heat, shed microplastics, and irritate delicate skin.
Just Peachy was created to solve these everyday struggles. Our underwear is crafted from TENCEL™ Micro Modal, a plant-based, dermatologist-recommended fabric that’s ultra-soft, breathable, and moisture-wicking — perfect for all kids, especially those with eczema, sensory sensitivities, or easily irritated skin.

Why Fabric Matters for Kids’ Health
Kids’ skin is thinner and more sensitive than adults’. Synthetic fabrics — like polyester and nylon — trap heat and moisture, which can cause:
- Sweat rashes and eczema flare-ups
- Chafing and irritation
- Discomfort during school and play
TENCEL™ Micro Modal is 50% more absorbent than cotton, breathable, and helps regulate body temperature. It acts like a protective second skin, keeping kids cool, dry, and comfortable all day.
Loved by kids, trusted by parents.

FAQs: What Parents Are Asking
What makes TENCEL™ Micro Modal better than cotton?
It’s softer, more breathable, and 50% more absorbent. Plus, it’s naturally hypoallergenic and recommended by the National Eczema Association.
While cotton is often considered “natural,” it can feel rougher, absorb sweat but retain moisture, and lose softness over time.
TENCEL™ Micro Modal is breathable, moisture-wicking, and stays luxuriously soft wash after wash making it ideal for kids with eczema or sensory sensitivities.
Is polyester safe for kids’ underwear?
Not really. Polyester is a synthetic fiber that traps heat and moisture, increasing the risk of rashes, irritation, and eczema flare-ups. It can also shed microplastics that end up in waterways. For delicate, developing skin, natural, breathable fabrics like TENCEL™ Micro Modal are a much healthier choice.
Is Just Peachy good for kids with eczema or sensory sensitivities?
Yes! The fabric is silky-smooth, tag-free, and gentle on delicate skin, reducing triggers that cause discomfort or meltdowns.
TENCEL™ Modal clothing is recommended by The National Eczema Association for kids and adults with eczema, and Just Peachy underwear has been dermatologist- and paediatrician-approved.
What’s the best underwear for fussy children?
Fussy kids often reject underwear because of itchy tags, tight elastics, or seams that rub. Just Peachy’s underwear is tag-free, seam-smooth, and wedgie-proof, with a silky texture that feels barely there. It’s loved by neurodiverse kids, those with tactile sensitivities, and even the fussiest dressers. Shop Kids & Teens Underwear >
