This Is Why Underwear Has A Little Pocket

Bikini bottoms, briefs, tighty-whities, these are all kinds of things that we take for granted every day.

There are many amazing facts about them and there are even fancy pairs – but do you know what the pocket in the front is for?

Lucky Red

The culture around undergarments in China and Italy is weird, to say the least.

On New Years people should bring a fresh pair of underwear, specifically red ones. Undergarments will start to be sold increasingly in red as the end of the year approaches.

Can, Can, Can You See?

In the Victorian era, undergarments weren’t sewn together between the legs.

They considered it to be more hygienic. But closed underwear became a thing when Can-Can dancers appeared.

The Big Bucks

No one is sure what the most expensive underwear is, there are many different brands.

Most people agree that it was the diamond bra that Heidi Klum wore on a Victoria Secret runway show. It was worth a staggering $12.5 million!

What’s It Worth?

China has the fastest expanding market for underwear in the world. In 2010 it was $16 billion but every year it increases 20%.

But the US has impressive numbers as well at $21 billion for male and female underwear.
