[post_page_title]Undergarments are apparently a no-no[/post_page_title]
Everyone’s been thinking this – do the Amish wear underwear? Hey, it’s a matter of personal hygiene as much as anything. Well, to answer that we need to realize that the Amish can be broadly categorized into four groups: Beachy, New Order, Old Order, and Swartzentruber.
The first three are perfectly fine with off-the-shelf Fruit of the Looms, but the hardline Swartzentruber’s stance is a little more complex. Basically, neither men nor women are allowed to buy underwear, as their elastic band holds them too close to the skin. Instead, the Swartzentruber Amish wear loose-fitting, homemade underwear held up by a drawstring.
