There are two gusset types – open and closed. Closed is sewn in for full cover. Open, with one side unsewn, saves fabric and cost. Both do the same job: breathe, comfort, and keep you clean.
To sum up, the gusset in women’s undies has many uses beyond looks:
Reinforcement: Adds support and toughness in the crotch.
Breathability: Lets air flow for comfy undies and skin.
Moisture Protection: Soaks up wetness to keep you dry.
Comfort: Cuts friction and chafing for lasting ease.
Hygiene: Guards vaginal health by stopping infections and staying clean.
Next time you spot that “pocket” in your undies, you’ll know it’s not just extra fabric. It’s there to make your undies comfy, breathable, and protective, keeping you happy and healthy.
