These briefs come from a lingerie series by Zimmerli, which is body-hugging and sporty cut. It is created on circular knitting machines as superfine yard goods, which are then cut and precisely made up.

Zimmerli Textil in Aarburg in Switzerland, established in 1871, is the most famous of the renowned Swiss fine knitting mills. The goods produced in Aarburg are truly inimitable: Zimmerli still produces on machines that were built for their particular requirements. Only the finest, long-staple Egyptian Mako cotton is used. Unusual for knitwear the cotton is processed into tightly twisted yarn and washed twice in caustic soda (i.e. mercerised). The mercerising prevents shrinking and gives the garment a unique sheen and exceptional smooth texture. Zimmerli underwear is extremely elastic lengthways and sideways, without synthetic additives. Accurate checking of the seams, multiple ironing and the final assembly take up one-quarter of the entire production process. Zimmerli selectively delivers their famous and justly praised goods to the best addresses worldwide.
