Feeling Cheeky? These Are The 20 Best Thongs of All Time (2024)

Ladies, we all know how it is. Whether you’re headed to an intense gym sesh, or it’s just the dog days of summer, this thong is designed to wick away sweat.

Sizes: XS-XXXL

Colors: 8 options

Material: Sport+ fabric, cotton

Customer review: “A great material that is so buttery soft and doesn’t show visible panty lines too much under tight leggings. A great dupe for lululemon undies. Sweat wicking properties work great. Will buy again.”

Perfect for period days, spotting, or just discharge, Knix makes incredible thongs that feature absorptive panels.

Hey, thongs aren’t just for ladies! TikTok influencer Noah Beck recently launched his own line of unisex undies. It’s time to convert the men in your life to the cheeky side.

Sizes: 23-38

Colors: Black, White, or Heather Grey

Material: Organic cotton, spandex

Customer review: “Honestly so comfortable. Really great quality. Very very happy with my purchase. Coming back to order more.”

Maybe I’m alone in this, but I love this thong (in part) because it reminds me of the first thongs I ever bought and how they made me feel. Ah, to be 14 in a shopping mall again.

Sizes: XS-XXL

Colors: 8 options

Material: Nylon

Customer review: “So many of the thongs I’ve purchased from other brands (ahem VS) are unnecessarily low rise and do not stay in place. No one wants a front wedgie! These undies don’t have that issue.”

A little mesh is always nice now and then! It’s sexy, breathable, and barely there.

Sizes: XXS-XXL

Colors: 6 options

Material: Nylon, elastane

Customer review: “This is my 4th or 5th time ordering intimates from AE and honestly I don’t think i can buy from anywhere else. The fit is perfect and for a curvier women thats saying a lot.”

I didn’t know thongs could be sexier than they already are...but then I discovered Gush, a panties brand that drips with edgy sex appeal while nailing the most basic (read: must-have) silhouette.

Sizes: XS-XL

Colors: Black or White

Material: Recycled polyamide, elastane

Customer review: “I haven’t had underwear that makes me feel THIS good in soo long.”

No fuss or frills here. Hanes makes underwear you can rely on for years to come.

Sizes: S-XXL

Colors: Multi

Material: Nylon, spandex

Customer review: “They are super fast drying which is helpful on the days I work out but still have a million things to do. When purchasing underwear, you usually have a goal in mind: sexiness, comfort, support, etc. Of other undies, these rank high in comfort but low is sexiness and support.”

When wearing the ideal thong, it should feel like you’re wearing nothing at all. That’s exactly the effect Bombas nailed with this breathable, lightweight style.

Sizes: XS-XXL

Colors: 6 options

Material: Nylon, elastane, cotton

Customer review: “A game changer. Soft, doesn’t bind, invisible seams—everything you want in a comfortable thong.”

While some are intimidated by a g-string, the style really does offer maximum barely-there effect (probably because they are, in fact, barely there.) Cosabella’s is a tried-and-true option that will not fail.

Sizes: OS

Colors: Black, Tan, or White

Material: Viscose, elastane

Customer review: “This is the most comfortable g-string that I have ever worn! It also holds up well in the wash (I use a delicates bag and then line dry all of my thongs to keep them in good condition). I haven’t had any issues with the fabric stretching or wearing out.”

Digging in? That’s the kiss of death for thongs—I simply won’t stand for it. You won’t find that issue at all with Cuup’s bestselling style, which comes in a variety of patterns and colors.

Sizes: XS-XXXL

Colors: 19 options

Material: Modal, elastane, bamboo, spandex

Customer review: “Literally the best underwear. So smooth and the cut is actually made for human bodies 🙌🏼.”

For all your boudoir needs, Kat the Label specializes in lacy lingerie of all styles and colors. Even if you’re the only one who sees it, there’s something to be said about wearing pretty panties.

Sizes: XS-XL

Colors: 8 options

Material: N/A

Customer review: “Super comfortable. Love that the straps are adjustable to create the perfect fit!”

Torrid’s high-waisted thong is a fan favorite for its flattering fit and feminine lace paneling. The brand’s 00–6 size range translates to a standard size range of 10–30.

Sizes: 10-30

Colors: Rich Black

Material: Nylon, spandex

Customer review: “I bought this a month ago and I was blown away at how smoothing this is. I love how easy it slides on and the fit is great. I don’t feel like I have a mom belly hanging over. Definitely recommend this! Stick with your normal size and you won’t be disappointed

Even a seamless low-rise thong won’t be so seamless under high-waisted bottoms, which is why high-waisted thongs are a must-have. Trust me, there’ll be no more fishing below your waistband to hike up your underwear.

Sizes: XS-XXXXL

Colors: 8 options

Material: Polyamide, spandex, cotton

Customer review: “This thong is fantastic! Great quality fabric and a nice high waist. It doesn’t roll or bunch. It’s perfect for high waist jeans and leggings. I loved it so much I bought more in other colors!”

Gone are the days of accepting a single shade of sandy beige as the universal nude. Nude Barre is catering to the people with a full-spectrum range of skin tones, so you can find your true nude.

Sizes: S-XL

Colors: 13 options

Material: Polyamide, elastane, cotton

Customer review: “This is all VERY excellent quality stuff. This thong will MELT into the skin, Hunny!! Tuh! Under WHERE??? ( see what I did there? 😏😂)…Cuz when they say SEAMLESS?! Oh they mean it.”

We went so far as to put Skims through our very own editor testing, and the brand’s thongs were a universal favorite. Available in a number of neutrals, nudes, neons, and brights—and sizes XXS through 4XL—this really is a thong for everyone and every need.

Sizes: XXS-XXXXL

Colors: 21 options

Material: Polyamide, elastane

Customer review: “Simple, clean, barely there, great fabric and colors, so comfortable, and true to size. These are my new everyday undies! Simply perfection.

If there’s one waistband that’s acceptable to let peekaboo, it’s the iconic Calvin Klein elastic. And with a broken down value of less than $8 per pair, you can say, “I save in my Calvins.”

Sizes: XS-XL

Colors: 45 options (!)

Material: Cotton, elastane

Customer review: “I feel like a plus sized model in these! Get that confidence through the roof!...Wow I feel sexxxyyyy! Effortless sporty sexy that kind perfectly coordinated and comfortable...So comfy to wear under my home loungewear...I feel so good in these I’m strutting my stuff like a plus sized model for you all to see!”

Perfect for bodycon dresses, pencil skirts, or ultra-tight trousers, a great shaping thong will keep that FUPA in check for you. (No shame here.)

Sizes: S-XL

Colors: Black or True Nude

Material: Nylon, elastane

Customer review: “I ordered these in nude, size L and am very pleased with my purchase. I am a size 14 and the L fits just right and is shaping but not uncomfortably so. The fact that they do not roll down is fantastic as all other shaping briefs I have tried do. I love how thin these are which keeps them undetectable under clothes. I will be purchasing a second and perhaps even a third pair!”

Naturally dyed in a plethora of fun colors and made of super soft bamboo, this is one of my personal favorites. As a bonus, they hold up extremely well in the wash. I own three.

Sizes: XS-XXXXL

Colors: 12 options

Material: Lyocell bamboo, spandex

Customer review: “I have never owned a more comfortable pair of underwear. They are seriously amazing and I would wear them every day. Very flattering on my curvy body and I feel amazing in them. I want one in every color. Definitely worth the price for an amazingly well-made, special pair of underwear. Compared to other underwear materials, the bamboo is far superior and my body thanks me when I wear them. Love love love !!! Amazing brand.”

Of all the things a thong should do, it should definitely stay in place. Whether you’re wearing it for exercise or just under a pair of jeans, these will stay put all day, and thank goodness for that.

Sizes: XS-L

Colors: 9 options

Material: Airbrush fabric

Customer review: “The fit, cut, and material make these my new fav thongs! They don’t roll or bunch up under my yoga pants!”

Whether you’re experimenting with free bleeding, experiencing bladder leaks, or just like a little extra protection, period panties are the answer for you. Compromising the outfit you really want to wear because you think you can’t wear a thong? Not anymore.

Sizes: XS-XXXL

Colors: Black or Sand

Material: Nylon, spandex, cotton, polyester

Customer review: “I wear these everyday! I don’t leave my house without them. I'm a 56-year young woman who has terrible bladder leakage. I walk I leak, I laugh I leak, I stand up I leak! It is so frustrating. These leakproof thongs are the real deal! I figured being a thong there is no way. OH YES THERE IS!! Trust me! Proof is the proof that I needed. Just try one pair, I was hooked.”
