A technical, ethical fabric that feels great to wear
At first glance, a brief is just a brief. But BLUEBUCK’s Tencel briefs change the game. Made with 55% TENCEL™, 40% recycled ECONYL® polyamide, and 5% elastane, they combine the performance of an everyday activewear garment with the commitment of a sustainable product.
What’s the first thing you notice? Their lightness. The fabric is so fluid and fine you almost forget you’re wearing it. Then comes the cool touch—almost cold—very different from cotton. And finally, the softness. Not just any softness, but a silky, gliding feel with zero roughness. In short, a textile experience far removed from the usual basics.
Soft, breathable, odor-free, quick-drying… These Tencel briefs don’t rely on flashy looks but on pure efficiency. And their environmental impact? Much lower than that of standard synthetic underwear. Everything is made in Europe, in factories powered by renewable energy, for a reduced carbon footprint. In short: more comfort for you, less damage to the planet.
Tencel: the technical fiber that makes a difference—without breaking a sweat
TENCEL™ (or lyocell) is the Swiss Army knife of eco-friendly fabrics. Made from wood pulp (often eucalyptus or beech), it’s produced in a near-closed loop system that recovers up to 99% of water and solvents. The result: a clean, soft fiber packed with benefits.
The real-life advantages of Tencel briefs:
- High moisture absorption capacity
- Ultra-fast drying, even in midsummer
- Cool feel against the skin (perfect for hot climates or heavy sweating)
- Antibacterial properties: no bad odors, even in the heat
- Super soft: zero friction, zero irritation
And all that without compromising on style: a well-fitted cut that stays in place without squeezing. In short, technical briefs that are anything but boring.
Tencel briefs: kings of freshness
The secret to Tencel briefs is their ability to absorb moisture without holding onto it. They wick away sweat quickly, resist odors, and dry in record time. Translation? You stay dry, even during a heatwave.
What that means day-to-day:
- No unpleasant damp feeling
- A true barrier against odors (thanks to Tencel’s antibacterial properties)
- A fluid fabric that stays pristine, even after a full day’s work or a workout session
A fit designed to move (or not move—it’s up to you)
Whether your day is commute–work–after-work drinks or home office–gym–hiking, our Tencel briefs are designed to follow your movements without clinging or squeezing. Between the elastane for stretch and Tencel’s natural softness, they strike the perfect balance between support and comfort. Wear them to the office, on a trip, at the gym, or while doing nothing at all. Honestly, they suit every situation.
Tencel + European production = a winning combination
At BLUEBUCK, ethics isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a framework. All our Tencel briefs are made entirely in Europe, mainly in Portugal, where our factory runs 100% on green electricity. The waistband comes from Austria, where renewable energy makes up more than 80% of the national supply.
We made these choices to:
- Reduce our carbon footprint at every stage
- Work with close, committed, and reliable partners
- Offer full traceability for every piece
- Never chase trends or fast fashion
No overproduction, no sales, no two-week “limited editions.” Our collections are timeless, made to last. Tencel briefs are part of those essentials that never go out of style—and whose quality truly makes a difference over time.
We know organic cotton well. It’s strong, soft, breathable. But Tencel plays in a different league:
- Even more breathable than cotton
- Doesn’t retain odors (avoiding awkward end-of-day moments)
- Lighter and cooler to the touch
- Dries much faster
In short, Tencel briefs are especially suited for hot days, long trips, or for anyone who likes to stay dry and comfortable, no matter what.
Yes—and we highly recommend them. Thanks to their high absorption capacity, fast drying, and antibacterial properties, Tencel briefs are perfect for physical activity or tropical climates (or simply a summer in the South).
Whether you’re going for a run, hiking, or just climbing three flights of stairs without a lift, you’ll stay cool. And since they’re free from irritating seams, they prevent chafing and discomfort. It’s technical underwear without looking like sports gear.
