So cute

Purchased for my bestie. Also got her the base thong. She loved them both but these were her favourite. Perfect size and super comfy

Comfy and breathable

I prefer thongs for everyday underwear. In the past I've used thong-specific pads for when I want no pantylines but have my period. These thongs are nicer. The absorbency is part of the underwear and doesn't move around or go anywhere. The absorbent part is smooth and doesn't stick out compared to the rest of the underwear. I use it with my menstrual cup for medium flow days or by itself for light flow days (at the end of my period).

The only underwear I will wear

I love my boost thongs, I have enough pairs that I can wear them everyday. They are comfortable and breathable and I love the fact that I don’t feel like I have to give up my preferences and still be protected from small leaks or during my period.

FAQ

How do Essential period underwear work?

Essential period underwear feature three types of fabric technology to keep you dry and comfy all day long.

The moisture wicking top layer draws fluid away from the skin and into the super absorbent core. Our leakproof lining stops leaks in their tracks while maintaining breathability, so you can bleed easy.

Do Aisle undies contain PFAS?

We do not add PFAS to any of our products. In addition to using OEKO-TEX certified materials, which are tested for the presence of PFAS, we also conduct additional third-party tests. No detectable levels of PFAS have been found in our underwear, based on a detectable limit of one part per million.

Do I need to wear a pad or tampon with Essential period underwear?

No need to double up for light days and minor leaks, but we do recommend pairing your thong with a cup or tampon for moderate-heavy periods.

Can I wear the Essential Thong for heavy flow?

Essential Thongs can absorb one tampon worth of flow. We recommend using them on light flow days, during workouts, or as back-up to a tampon or menstrual cup. For heavy flow options, check out Super period underwear, or adjustable-absorbency Boost period underwear.
