The large gusset combines TENCEL and SMARTCEL lyocell infused with zinc oxide, which is formulated for its antibacterial and odour-reducing properties, though user reviews note mixed evidence on these benefits. Designed in Canada, this thong is commonly used for everyday comfort, breathable wear, and minimal visibility under fitted clothing, with some users reporting durability concerns such as holes after repeated washing.","url":"https://www.simons.ca/en/women-underwear/panties/high-waist/plain-high-waist-mineral-thong-tencel-modal--21752-65547?colourId=1","brand":"Huha","condition":"new","product_category":"women underwear > panties > high waist","material":"Body: 90% TENCEL™ modal, 10% spandex; Lining: 88% TENCEL™ lyocell, 10% SMARTCEL lyocell, 2% spandex","age_group":"adult","image_url":"https://imagescdn.simons.ca/images/21752/65547/1/A1_2.jpg","additional_image_urls":["https://imagescdn.simons.ca/images/21752/65547/1/A2_2.jpg","https://imagescdn.simons.ca/images/21752/65547/1/A3_2.jpg"],"images":[{"id":"img-1784702784507-0","url":"https://imagescdn.simons.ca/images/21752/65547/1/A1_2.jpg","alt_text":"Plain high-waist mineral thong TENCEL™ modal product image (primary)","position":1,"attributes":{"other":{"summary":"Studio-style flat-lay product photograph on a light neutral background with even diffuse lighting and soft shadowing beneath the garment.","observations":[{"key":"Background","kind":"feature","value":"Uniform light gray background filling the frame.","regions":[],"evidence_status":"direct"},{"key":"Lighting and shadow","kind":"feature","value":"Even, diffuse lighting with a soft shadow visible beneath and slightly to the left of the garment, indicating overhead light.","regions":[{"x":0.18,"y":0.54,"width":0.64,"height":0.28,"confidence":"medium"}],"evidence_status":"direct"},{"key":"Shot composition","kind":"feature","value":"Centered flat-lay composition with the thong occupying most of the horizontal frame and clear margins of background around the product.","regions":[],"evidence_status":"direct"}]},"colors":[{"name":"solid black","part":"main fabric","regions":[{"x":0.05,"y":0.08,"width":0.45,"height":0.18,"confidence":"high"},{"x":0.5,"y":0.08,"width":0.45,"height":0.18,"confidence":"high"},{"x":0.38,"y":0.26,"width":0.24,"height":0.6,"confidence":"high"}],"subject":"product","description":"Uniform solid black knit fabric with a matte finish across the waistband, front panel, and crotch strip.","sampled_hex":"#1B1A16","estimated_hex":"#0F0F0F"}],"product":{"summary":"Flat-lay view of a black high-cut thong shown from the front, laid flat on a neutral background.
