ABOUT US
Est. 2019
We are Paxsies, a team with diverse backgrounds and identities dedicated to making underwear products for everyone, all around the world. The world is changing rapidly, and more people worldwide have finally found the words to describe who they are and the freedom to openly express themselves. We believe that feeling comfortable and complete in your own skin is extremely important, and that simple things, like putting on a pair of underwear, can have more of a positive impact than one might think.
From both personal experience and listening to people’s stories, we understand the struggles and challenges that many people face and believe that to create a world in which everybody feels welcome and represented, we need change.
We constantly seek more ways to drive that change by listening to our community to provide what they need and improve what we already offer. Our dream is to have equality in the world in every possible way. To normalise different. Our dream product wise is to provide accessible, high-quality products that help people express themselves, no matter who they are.
To us, Paxsies is more than just a brand - it’s a movement towards inclusion, equality, and self-expression. A movement that starts from the simplest things, just like underwear.
Much Love, The Team

Kris - Social Media Manager
Kris is the newest member of the Paxsies team. Kris found Paxsies while trying to find himself and learn to be comfortable in his own skin. Inspired by this he wanted to use his passion to help others like him - and assist them with navigating their own journey. Deciding he wanted to do more he finally found his place and a home on the Paxsies team.
When not busy with work Kris can be found out on an adventure with his two beautiful daughters and dog, exploring a new park or camping. Kris loves making new creations in the kitchen and trying not to injure himself from spending the summer months on the softball field.
