Why Period Pants?
Period pants have become one of the most popular sustainable alternatives to disposable pads and tampons in the UK — and for good reason. They're reusable, comfortable, and designed to be worn just like regular underwear. No wings. No strings. No fuss.
But with so many styles on the market, how do you choose? We've put together this guide to help you find your perfect pair.
What to Look for in Period Pants
Before diving into our picks, here's what matters most when choosing period underwear:
- Absorbency: Look for pants rated by how many tampons' worth of flow they can hold.
- Fit: A snug (not tight) waistband and gusset seal are key to leak prevention.
- Style: From briefs to boxers to thongs — there's a cut for every preference.
- Fabric: Breathable, moisture-wicking layers keep you feeling fresh all day.
