Shorty dos à découpe microfibre recyclée bleu, JoJoe

I was lucky enough to be sent these pants by Lovehoney in exchange for an impartial review. Firstly, the material is so soft and has just the right amount of stretch.

Though it's a recycled man-made material it's not sweaty at all. The only part not made of recycled polyester and elastane is the gusset, which I feel is a nice bit of design given how much healthier it is to have cotton by your vulva.

They’re excellent under tight clothes too, not only do they have no pantie line, but they’re also seamless and have no label to stick out or itch.

The triangle cut out is a chic bit of detailing and it being the only overt piece of decoration means the overall look is sleek.

Lastly, I love love love that it's 100% recycled!

I like to think I’m fairly environmentally aware and conscious of the decisions I make.

However, I haven’t introduced those values into my underwear drawer or, to be honest, even considered it, so I was super excited to receive these "shorts" and see just what I was missing out on.

First thing to catch my eye was the packaging. It’s merely a zip-lock bag, but it’s recycled, is recyclable and is totally reusable. As it states on the packaging itself, it can be repurposed to carry just about anything small enough to fit in there. I’m going on holiday soon, so will put all my little bits like hairbands, clips and jewellery in there. Once I’m home, I’ll find another use for it! Cute, will last, and generally a great idea.

These bottoms are described as "shorts" but to me are a brief style.

They are a very simple design and they fit really well! The open triangle at the back is a cute little touch, and you get very minimal panty line showing through tight clothes which is a bonus.

The material of them is incredibly lightweight and soft. In terms of underwear it’s relatively delicate and requires a hand wash, but has fantastic build quality and a good amount of stretch.

These knickers are a definite day-to-day pair for me, purely for their comfort factor. Nothing digs in and there’s no snaggy or itchy materials or labels.

JoJoe has certainly opened my eyes to just how great recycled underwear can be, and I now plan to implement a more environmentally friendly approach to my clothing and underwear.

I was really excited about receiving this order (2 bras and 1 pair of knickers) as it’s a great concept!

The material is soft and light, and the fit was good (I’m a size 10 34B and ordered medium bras). However, I feel the finishing let’s these designs down. The material is probably not suitable to stitch which is fine, but the way the straps and tops of the bras are cut and glued together makes them look cheap. There was also a spot of stray glue on the back of the knickers which I didn’t bother trying for size so the whole lot ended up going back.
