Original Lightning Bolt vs Hipster Plain Peach: Which Fit?

Quick answer

Choose the Original Lightning Bolt if you love unique tie-dye patterns and don't mind extra care; pick the Hipster Plain Peach for a reliable low-rise fit that works under light clothing.

Trade-offs at a glance

• Unique look vs. wardrobe versatility: The Original Lightning Bolt gives you a one-of-a-kind tie-dye pattern, but requires careful washing and can't be worn under light clothing until the dye sets. The Hipster Plain Peach is a solid color that works under anything, including white.
• Waist height preference: The Original Lightning Bolt sits at the natural waist, offering more coverage. The Hipster Plain Peach sits lower, making it ideal for low-rise pants or skirts.
• Care effort: The Original Lightning Bolt needs separate washing for the first few washes. The Hipster Plain Peach has no special care requirements, so it's easier to maintain. If you prefer low-maintenance care, the Hipster Plain Peach is the simpler choice.

Product facts

• Original Lightning Bolt: These Yellow Thunderpants have been tie-dyed in an indigo dye bath, with a unique lightning bolt pattern on each pair. You get a one-of-a-kind look, but you must wash separately for the first few washes and avoid wearing under light-colored clothing to prevent dye transfer.

  

• Hipster Plain Peach: The Hipster Thunderpants sit lower at the waist, have a flat front, and a soft gusset made from the same fabric as the outer garment. This low-rise fit works well under light-colored or low-rise clothing, and the solid peach color won't show through.
