    EBY is a subscription-based company driving profits with purpose. EBY, the perfect everyday seamless panty, boasts lightweight fabric that gives a second-skin feel and look while our patented flocking technology prevents sliding and riding. Instead they work as one with you so you can run, shape and shift the world. Providing the utmost convenience for a replenishable product, EBY delivers underwear and purpose monthly, bi-monthly or quarterly to its community members. Styles and frequency can be customized to the author’s preference. EBY is for everyone and is offered in all sizes from XS – 4X. EBY repositions underwear as a tool for empowerment rather than one of seduction. In fact, 10% of sales go to the Seven Bar Foundation to empower women out of poverty and into business via microfinance with a small loan, what we call a first break, that can be as little as $80 or as large as $7,000. This loan enables an underprivileged woman to start or grow her business. As she becomes self-sufficient the cycle of poverty is broken. Loans are repaid and passed to another woman, creating a multiplier effect. EBY consistently fuels this loop so that it never ends, creating more first breaks and more bionic women. We’re not about token donations, but rather long-term solutions. We sustainably source our products in a factory in Sri Lanka that respects the balance between environmental, social, and economic performance. Our factory’s core company pillar focuses on Women’s Empowerment Principles, which were jointly developed by the United Nations. Born fierce. Raised resilient. Welcome to EBY.
