Great, forget I’m wearing them

I wear these as backup with a menstrual cup and on their own at the end of my period. They are so great, especially at night because of all of the coverage! I appreciate aisle’s commitment to gender inclusivity and making safe, comfortable products. I would recommend and worth trying!! Combined with the cup, makes my period easy enough to deal with. The sizing chart was accurate for me with an XS - hip measurement 36”

Absolutely fantastic

As an AFAB trans genderfluid person, these are a much more comfortable option, and reduce my gender dysphoria so much when it comes to my period

Excellent dependable product, love the color!

I now have four pair of these boxers (and my 13 yr old has 5 pair!) and they are amazing. No more middle of the night leaks and I love that they can go in the dryer! Best investment ever

Comfy and Breathable

Have been looking for a pair of period boxers just like this for a few years now. 10/10 breathability, true to size and they don't ride up! The waistband is snug enough to not ride up or down but not so tight that inevitable abdominal period bloating presses into the band and causes pain. I'm very sensitive in my abdomen + overheat quickly and sensory-wise this was fine-- felt like I was just wearing comfy boxer briefs. Because I liked these so much, I ended up buying a second pair (and the similar non-absorbent essential boxer) after trialing one pair for a cycle.
