The Boxer Shorts care guide

Turn them inside out to protect the buttons and the face of the fabric, and then stick them in the washing machine at 30°C with similar colours. Simple.

Spin at 800 rpm, no more. To minimise creasing, pull them out of the machine as soon as the cycle ends. Give them two or three good shakes to smooth out the creases, and hang them up to dry naturally. No tumble drying, resist the temptation. It damages the fibres.

Underwear? Not essential. If you've given them a proper shake once out of the machine, your work is done. But if you do want to give it a blast on the iron, fair enough. 150°C max.

Since 1 January 2024, the French AGEC law requires textile industry players to be more transparent in order to promote conscious and informed consumption. Even though we didn't wait to be asked, we reckon it's a step in the right direction. Here it is for the Boxer Shorts.

• They're 100% recyclable. If your time together comes to an end, your item can be fully recycled. That said, we'd always recommend repairing and/or handing it down to someone before recycling.
• They say no to plastic microfibres. Unlike a lot of clothing that sheds microplastics in the wash, they've been designed to minimise their environmental impact. Plastic microfibres are tiny particles that wreak havoc on aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems.
• They contain no hazardous materials. They respect strict European standards aimed at eliminating substances and chemical treatments that could be harmful to you, the environment, and the people who make them.
• They don't contain recycled materials. Sometimes we manage to incorporate recycled materials to further reduce the impact of our clothes. Unfortunately, that wasn't possible in this case.
