Yes! HidraWear has come up quite a bit among myHSteam members, and the feedback has been really positive. It was actually founded by someone living with HS, so it was designed with real experience in mind.

Here's what makes it popular:

- Garments are made from breathable, skin-friendly materials
- Built-in pockets and fasteners hold wound dressings in place — no tape needed on your skin
- Helps reduce the hassle of frequent dressing changes
- Options include briefs, boxer shorts, crop tops, and T-shirts for different affected areas
- They also make their own absorptive dressings designed to fit their garments

One myHSteam member called it "a game-changer" for their mobility. The cost can be a concern, but here's the good news — many insurance plans cover HidraWear. It's worth asking your dermatologist to help document medical necessity so your insurance may reimburse you. Definitely worth a conversation before paying out of pocket!
