Product Insights
The Miiyu Lace Trim Microfibre Thong Recycled Nylon balances sustainability and performance: its microfibre body is 80% reprocessed nylon, Simons’ Vision-certified for reduced-impact materials, while the 100% cotton gusset enhances breathability and moisture management—a feature often missing in budget synthetics—and the synthetic lace trim resists fraying. The fabric feels soft, silky, and stretchy, wicks sweat, and dries in 30–60 minutes, though the gusset and lace are not recycled and require gentle care (hand wash or mesh bag). With 52 color/size variants and a designed-in-Canada heritage, this thong offers durable shape retention and value at $12.99, but the tradeoff is partial recycled content and more delicate care.

- Material
90% polyamide, 10% elastane lace resists fraying and retains its scalloped shape.
Why this is supported
The lace trim is made of 90% polyamide and 10% elastane. Synthetic fibers like polyamide are inherently more fray-resistant than natural fibers. As one fabric source notes,
Synthetic threads, like polyester and nylon, are more durable and less likely to fray than natural threads, like cotton and silk.
hdprintfabric.comAnother source confirms that synthetic materials have a uniform structure that resists fraying. The elastane content also gives the lace stretch to maintain its scalloped silhouette. The product's own description highlights that this lace composition is a lingerie-grade detail, setting it apart from standard budget thongs. Specifically, it states:
The lace trim is 90% polyamide and 10% elastane, giving it the stretch to hold its scalloped shape wash after wash — a lingerie-grade detail that separates it from the raw-cut elastic edges common on budget thongs.

The 100% cotton gusset delivers targeted breathability in the most sensitive area, offsetting the lower air permeability of the synthetic body. As listed on product pages:
- Care
Hand wash cool; or machine wash in mesh bag to protect lace.
Why this is supported
Hand washing in cool water with gentle detergent is the recommended method for preserving the lace trim. If machine washing, a protective mesh laundry bag is advised. As a care guide states,
If you wash it in the machine, it is worth using a protective laundry bag. This helps prevent the lace from catching on zips, hooks or rougher fabrics from other clothes.
