Subset is an essential innerwear brand that is sustainable from the start, on a mission to make organic cotton your daily default. Offering certified organic cotton underwear, lounge apparel, maternity and accessories, the brand’s base layers for men and women are designed to enhance your everyday life.

Known originally as 'Knickey,' the company launched in 2018 with a focus on intimates in organic cotton. With an update in 2023, Subset is a brand evolution that builds upon the company’s foundation and core values with an expanded offering of sustainable innerwear designed for daily living. Subset provides the integral components of a well-founded wardrobe, combining function with ease, from premium materials.

Taking responsibility for the full lifecycle of its products, the brand created the world's first intimates Recycling Program to divert textile waste from landfill. Having recycled over one million items since its inception, Subset has downcycled used bras, undergarments, socks and hosiery into secondary uses like furniture batting and carpet pads. With sustainability at the forefront of the brand’s strategy, Subset is thrilled to introduce fiber-to-fiber outcomes for its returned inventory for a fully circular supply chain.

Underwear

Subset earns strong reviews for breathable, organic-cotton underwear that fits comfortably and holds up well, with standouts like the mid-rise thong and briefs. Reviews also flag drawbacks—visible panty lines, occasional elastic wear or seam wonkiness, variable fit and sizing, and a bra with visible seams—making the brand excellent for everyday comfort and sustainability-minded shoppers who don’t need seamless finishes.

Organic Cotton Triangle Soft Bra provides unbelievable wireless support. The best-selling bralette exhibits a better structure, expanded cup sizes, and exceptional comfort. Darted cups, double-lining, and center seams work together to provide structure. Its sturdy back closure allows for adjustability and ensures that it will be reached for time and again.

I found this bra more structured/robust than I'd anticipated, lacking comfort and breathability. The vertical seams easily show through shirts, so it's best used at home or under roomy tops.
