Mormon Underwear

Yes, there is such a thing as “Mormon underwear” although Mormons refer to them as “garments” or “temple garments”. Only Mormons who have “gone through” a Mormon temple (“temples” are different than “churches”), meaning they’ve participated in certain religious ordinances, wear religious clothing as underwear which is called “garments”. The clothes serve as a reminder of the promises Mormons make in the temples and Mormons believe wearing the garments afford them a certain level of physical protection. Mormons consider the clothing sacred and therefore don’t like to show them off or let them be seen for fear of someone making fun of what something that is very meaningful to them.

Of course this may all sound ridiculous to someone who isn’t familiar with the practice, but many other religions also have dress codes wherein the members of that faith wear certain things as symbols of their beliefs.
