Product Insights
Miiyu's High-Cut Essential Thong Organic Cotton revives a 1990s swimsuit silhouette as an everyday essential, using a 93% organic cotton and 7% spandex blend for stretch and shape retention, though not 100% organic cotton; preserving the high-cut shape requires cold washing in a mesh bag and reshaping while damp, and this Simons-exclusive Canadian-designed thong is recommended by buyers on r/BuyCanadian.
- Material
93% organic cotton, 7% spandex blend — not 100% organic cotton
Why this is supported
The brand Miiyu is marketed by some as 100% organic cotton, but the confirmed composition is a 93/7 blend. One buyer stated:
Simons has 100% organic cotton under the brand Miiyu. The high cut thong is great 👍
u/ExaminationQuirky725 in r/BuyCanadian. The product Q&A directly addresses the claim:
This thong is made from 93% organic cotton and 7% spandex [1].
What is the exact percentage of organic cotton in the blend? Are there other fibers like elastane or nylon?. The blend provides the benefits of both fibers: the organic cotton offers softness and breathability, while the spandex adds durability and shape retention, making the thong more resilient than pure cotton alternatives.
- Fit
7% spandex gives stretch and shape retention for high-cut, high-rise fit
Why this is supported
The 7% spandex provides the necessary stretch and recovery for the high-cut, high-rise silhouette, ensuring the thong maintains its shape and stays snug without the cotton alone sagging.
- Care
Cold washing in a mesh bag and reshaping while damp preserves the high-cut shape.
Why this is supported
Machine washing can twist the thong and stress the spandex; using
a mesh laundry bag reduces friction and tangle
How to wash and keep them lasting — mesh_bag_protection. Cotton fibers can shrink with heat;
washing in cold water and reshaping while damp keeps the high-cut legs and high-rise waist from curling or tightening
How to wash and keep them lasting — cold_water_for_shape_retention. The 7% spandex is heat-sensitive;
air-drying or using a low-heat setting can prevent the elastic waistband from losing grip and the fabric from bagging out after repeated washes
How to wash and keep them lasting — spandex_heat_degradation, and
direct heat from an iron can melt or distort the elastic fibers
How to wash and keep them lasting — no_iron_or_press_reason. The high-cut, high-rise silhouette echoes a 1990s swimsuit cut; preserving this shape through proper care maintains the trend-led essential.
- Silhouette
High-cut silhouette revives 1990s swimsuit cut as an everyday essential.
Why this is supported
The high-cut, high-rise silhouette directly draws from 1990s swimwear.
The high-cut, high-rise silhouette echoes the iconic 1990s swimsuit cut that has recently been revived by contemporary underwear brands

Buyers on r/BuyCanadian recommend this Simons-exclusive Canadian-designed thong.
Why this is supported
Miiyu is Simons' private-label brand and the product description confirms it was designed in Canada. A Reddit user in the BuyCanadian subreddit recommended the product, stating:
Simons has 100% organic cotton under the brand Miiyu. The high cut thong is great 👍
u/ExaminationQuirky725 in r/BuyCanadianThis recommendation underscores its appeal to shoppers prioritizing Canadian-designed products. However, because Miiyu is exclusive to Simons, the thong can only be purchased directly from Simons, limiting its availability.
