Exploring Period Underwear Brands

Let’s face it — periods are already enough of a hassle without having to worry about leaks and stains. That’s where period underwear comes in, offering a comfortable alternative to menstrual pads and tampons. But with so many brands on the market, how do you know which one is right for you?  

Thinx period underwear  

Thinx is all about innovation. We offer leakproof period underwear in a variety of styles, including a special line for Thinx Teens. Their products look and feel like your regular underwear but with the added benefit of helping you stay dry and confident. 

Now, you might be wondering, what is special about Thinx period underwear? First off, we’ve developed our own LeakSafe™ barrier, which is a game-changer for anyone dealing with a heavy flow or who just wants peace of mind. This barrier is designed to be leakproof for up to 12 hours, meaning you can go about your day without worry.  

Thinx also offers a variety of styles, from Hi-Waist to Hiphugger, so you can find the perfect fit for your body type and flow.

So, how does Thinx period underwear compare with 3 others brands, Hanes, Saalt, and The Period Company, on leakage?  

In a lab test, we put a replica of a real menstruating human in period underwear and yoga pants to see which brand could handle up to 12 hours of heavy flow. 

We designed the replica, named Sam, to be as close of a representation of the human body as possible. We even made her legs “walk” for 5 miles to account for the movements a person might go through during a day on their period. 

For 12 hours each, Sam wore period underwear from different brands (Thinx, Hanes, Saalt, and The Period Company) with a pair of yoga pants. Afterward, we recorded the stains and saw that each of the other brands leaked through to the yoga pants. Only Thinx came out stain-free.
