Product Information

Full details

This Modibodi Hi-Waist Bikini period pant is designed for adult females seeking a comfortable, discreet, and sustainable alternative to traditional period products. Its key benefit is providing moderate absorbency (up to 30ml, equivalent to 6 light tampons) with leak-proof protection, all while feeling like regular underwear. A potential caveat is the need to wash before first use to activate its full absorbency. Key features include a breathable bamboo outer layer, a multi-layer absorbent gusset with merino wool and waterproof technology, and a comfortable high-waist, high-leg design with a lace waistband.

FAQs

How do I activate the absorbency of my Modibodi pants?

You must wash your Modibodi period pants before their first wear. This initial wash activates the absorbent technology within the gusset.

What is the absorbency level of these Hi-Waist Bikini pants?

These pants offer moderate absorbency, capable of holding up to 30ml of liquid, which is equivalent to approximately six light tampons.

Can I wear these pants overnight?

While designed for moderate to heavy flows, for very heavy overnight flow, you might consider using them as a backup with another product for maximum protection, or opting for Modibodi's overnight styles if available.

How often should I change them?

This depends on your flow. On moderate days, they can be worn for up to 8-10 hours. You may need to change them sooner if your flow is heavier.

How do I clean my Modibodi period pants?

Rinse in cold water after use, then machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle with mild detergent. Hang to dry. Avoid fabric softeners, tumble dryers, and soaking.

What material are the gusset layers made of?

The gusset features a 3-layer system: the top is 100% Merino Wool, the middle is 80% Polyester / 20% Polyamide, and the bottom layer is 100% polyester for waterproofing.

Are these pants bulky like a pad?

No, they are designed to be discreet and feel like regular underwear, without any bulkiness.

Troubleshooting

Pants are not absorbing as expected.

Ensure the pants were washed before the first use to activate the absorbent layers. Re-wash following care instructions, ensuring no fabric softener or harsh detergents were used.

Leaks occurring.

Check that the size is correct and the gusset is properly positioned. For heavier flows, consider wearing them during lighter days or as a backup to another product.

Pants feel uncomfortable or scratchy.

This may occur if fabric softener was used during washing. Wash again with a mild detergent and rinse thoroughly. Ensure they are fully dry before wearing.

Odour is present.

Rinse the pants in cold water immediately after use before washing. Ensure they are thoroughly washed and dried completely. Avoid leaving them damp for extended periods.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Before your first use, it is essential to wash your Modibodi period pants. This step is crucial for activating the absorbent technology within the gusset.

Compatibility: These period pants are designed for adult females and are compatible with various menstrual flow levels, particularly moderate to heavy. They can be worn alone or as a backup to other menstrual products.

Care Instructions: To maintain the integrity and performance of your Modibodi pants:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using cold water. Avoid using fabric softeners or strong detergents, as these can degrade the absorbent materials.
  2. Drying: Hang the pants to dry naturally. Avoid tumble-drying or exposing them to high temperatures, as heat can damage the waterproof layer and absorbent fibers.
  3. Soaking: Do not soak the period pants.
  4. Storage: Once completely dry, store them in a dry laundry bag or drawer.
