This Essential Bikini stays securely in place and adapts to your movements, keeping you fresh, dry, and at ease all day long regardless of where your activities take you. Made from premium ZQRX Merino wool, the seamless construction and gentle elastic waistband prevent pinching and slipping when you're hiking, cycling, mountaineering, exercising, or doing yoga — it's so pleasant to wear, you won't even notice it's there!

Bonus: Our Merino wool carries both ZQ+ and Responsible Wool Standard certification, making it regenerative and eco-conscious. (This also means it contains no BPA, PFAs, or harmful forever chemicals).

Double Bonus: The Bikini performs beautifully in and around water. It dries remarkably fast.

Our Essential Bikini features a low-rise and four-way knit stretch that fits snugly around your hips. It's constructed using seamless knitting technology to prevent chafing or scratchy seams.

Our Performance Innerwear collection is designed to hug your body. If you prefer a less compressed fit or are in between sizes, we recommend sizing up.

Care Guide:

We recommend using a mesh cotton laundry bag to reduce stretching and stress on the fabric. Hand or machine wash with like colors in cool water with a wool-friendly soap, then hang to dry. On the road or in the wild? Wash with shampoo or mild soap in the shower, rinse thoroughly, roll in a towel to eliminate excess water, and hang to dry. Merino dries super quickly. Do not put it in the dryer.

IMPORTANT:
Always wash black and darker garments separately to avoid color transfer. Never use bleach or fabric softener. Bleach destroys Merino, while fabric softeners coat the fibers, minimizing their ability to manage moisture and regulate body temperature.

Garments damaged due to improper care cannot be refunded or exchanged.

Material:

Our Merino wool is ZQ+™-certified. Our factory is located in Europe.

Each piece is knit seamlessly on Santoni machines and dyed in small batches. Every garment is unique, so no two pieces are exactly alike. We are very proud of our slow craft manufacturing process.

A GLDNspun™ knit blend of 81% extra fine Merino wool, 14% nylon, and 5% Spandex.

PERFORMANCE WITHOUT COMPROMISE

Designed for superior performance and maximum comfort—it all starts with Merino wool. Super-soft, ultra-fine Merino wicks sweat to keep you dry, fresh, and funk-free. The natural crimp of its fiber traps air so you stay cool when things heat up and keep warm when there’s a chill.

My FAVORITE!!!

I bought these for hiking and backpacking but now just want to wear them ALL the time. They fit perfectly, look cute (which is important) and are super comfortable.I absolutely LOVE these Essential Bikinis!! For reference, my hips are a 38 and I ordered a size L. I do find I need to size up with most of Branwyn's products. But their size chart is fairly accurate and if I ever have questions I just reach out to the Branwyn team and they get back immediately! Their exceptional customer service is just another reason I love Branwyn!!

Quality

I am really happy with my new undies. They are cool and comfy. I often forget I’m wearing them. They feel really high quality. They are slightly thicker than another wool brand of undies I own which makes me think they are more durable, and I like that.

My only not-favorite thing about them is that I usually wear a size small in nearly all clothes, but in these I wear a Large. And that’s just not fun. Why not change the labels to align more closely with standard sizing and also make women feel better about themselves?? Lol
