Feminine Absorbent
The Feminine Absorbent Garment is a snug-fitting knee-length bottom that has a soft bonded waistband at the natural waist and bonded hems at the knees. Bonding helps create a smooth profile under clothing and relaxes slightly with wear.
The reusable absorbent gusset absorbs menstrual flow, holding up to 50ml of fluid, the equivalent of 6 pads or 8 regular tampons.
It features a three-layer gusset:
- The top wicking layer pulls moisture away from your body.
- The middle absorbent core holds moisture.
- The bottom barrier prevents leaks.
Care Instructions
For best results, rinse the garment in cold water immediately after use to help prevent staining. Then, hand wash or machine wash using cold water with the delicate cycle. To maintain garment function and longevity, do not use fabric softener or bleach, and avoid ironing or machine drying.
Fit
The fabric is designed to stretch up to twice its size for a contoured fit. If you are between sizes, we recommend sizing down.
FAQ on Feminine Absorbent Garment
How many hours can I wear this absorbent garment?
This will vary from person to person, depending on flow. When the absorbent layer is full, you will start to see fluid seep into the seams, which will help you establish your personal timeframe. Try the product at home first to see what works best for you.
Can I wear the garment on its own, without additional feminine hygiene products?
Yes, the garment is made to be worn on its own without the need for additional menstrual products. It has the equivalent absorbency of 6 pads or 8 regular tampons (8–10 teaspoons of fluid). This product can be used as a backup for other feminine hygiene products, though it is not recommended for use with pads, as adhesives may ruin the barrier layer.
How long will the garment last?
The industry standard for replacing everyday underwear is typically about 12-18 months. With proper care and rotation, your garment should meet this time frame. If the garment begins to sag or stretch out, it is time to replace it.
Can these garments be returned?
Unlike other garment styles, these garments cannot be returned in stores. Please contact the Global Services Department regarding returns.
Is the garment reusable?

Is the garment treated with PFAS or forever chemicals?

Does it contain latex?
No, the garment is completely latex-free.
