What is Saalt Wear made of?Updated a year ago
The custom, patent-pending gusset of Saalt Wear is made with several layers of polyester-based fabric. Hydrophobic and hydrophilic layers work together: A top layer wicks away moisture, moving it away from the body and leaving you feeling dry. Middle layers absorb and hold moisture, and the bottom leak-resistant layer keeps everything locked within the underwear. The gusset is 100% polyester, and the lining is 92% recycled polyester, 8% elastane, < 1% polyurethane. Watch this video to see in real-time how our gusset technology works.
Our Leakproof Lace & Mesh Collection has silky soft recycled poly fabrics made of post-consumer recycled water bottles to help clean up landfill and ocean-bound plastic.
Our Leakproof Comfort Collection is made from soft and stretchy TENCEL™ Modal fabric. Saalt Wear modal fabric is made of a regenerated cellulose fiber produced from renewable beech wood. Our modal is sourced from Lenzing, an Austrian company that is one of the industry’s leaders in semi-synthetic fiber production.
Our Leakproof Cotton Collection is made from a 95% cotton 5% elastane fabric blend for the body of the underwear with our classic polyester gusset. It is a breathable, biodegradable, and natural fiber that includes a little bit of stretch for comfort. Just like your favorite cotton tee, but for leaks!
Our Leakproof Seamless Collection is made from ultra-durable LYCRA® XTRA LIFE™ fiber, with our standard patent-pending gusset. No VPL ensures it will maintain excellent fit and shape retention wash after wash, wear after wear. Your favorite leakproof underwear, panty lines not included.
