    WUKA Re-Purpose High Waist Period Pants - Heavy Flow

    Feel comfortable and confident during menstruation with these RE-PURPOSE™ High waist period pants with heavy flow absorbency by WUKA® in black. These super period undies are made from re-purposed fabric - fast fashion offcuts are transformed into reusable, washable period pants that will last 2+ years.

    Super absorbent, these period pants hold approximately 4 tampons worth of period flow - at least 20 ml. WUKA are designed to be worn for up to 8 hours on light days and 4-6 hours on heavy days, and all through the night.

    This period proof High Waist Brief is black with a lower leg cut and full coverage on the gusset. High waisted, hugging you in all the right places to enhance your natural curves for the ultimate fit for comfort. With an absorbent suspended pad on the gusset, giving a comfortable, breathable and odour-free period, and a wide, velvet stripe mesh waistband for a luxurious feel. This is a super soft, comfortable, and reusable menstrual high waist brief which has the same feel as your regular underwear.

    Made from recycled nylon and a cotton gusset, using excess fabric diverted from landfill and fast fashion supply chains. These breathable briefs are perfect for sports activities and for school period wear. These period proof pants are a high waist style with full coverage at the back, and wide area of absorption, giving you piece of mind whatever your day or night brings. Choose zero waste period pants you WUKA for a comfortable and leak free period.

    • A high waist style for the ultimate comfort
    • Repurpose High Waist period pants enhance your natural curves
    • Suspended pad on the gusset, for a breathable and odour-free period
    • Designed to absorb 20ml of blood (up to 4 tampons worth)
    • Wash before your first wear

    Washing: rinse in cold water after use, then machine wash at 40° and line dry. Do not add fabric softener as this will affect absorbency. Not suitable for tumble drying.

    Every WUKA prevents over 200 disposables from going to landfill with every pair. Wear, wash, reuse.

    WUKA pants should withstand 20-30 washes, approximately 2 years of periods. When they have reached the end of their usefulness, the absorbent pad can be cut out and put in the bin, while the rest of the pants are certified compostable and biodegradable.

    WUKA period pants are designed in the UK using Austrian Lenzing® MicroModal fabric, sustainably made from beech tree fibres especially for WUKA. This innovative fabric is 3.5x softer than fine cotton and feels incredible against the skin. Some of the great benefits of using this fabric:

    • there is no wastage from offcuts as the fabric is made to exact requirements
    • energy is offset to be CO2 neutral
    • 99% of greywater produced during manufacturing is recaptured and recycled
    • resistant to shrinkage and colour fading, with antibacterial properties.
    • This soft, breathable and moisture wicking fabric forms the outer layers of these pants. A central layer of highly absorbent fabric absorbs blood and holds it, while a breathable but leak proof layer makes these period pants reliably period proof, with no need for additional period wear.

Disappointing

I’m a big fan of other wuka pants, and big pants so these seemed promising.

The absorbent bit is only at the gusset (not all the way up the back as the description kind of implies). It’s very thick, and I’m sure great for heavy flow if your body has really good aim. If your heavy flow isn’t targeted at centre or gusset then you’re likely to get leaks.

The main pants fabric is super soft and silky. Combine that with super thick ‘suspended’ gusset and you get a really odd combination of a thick pad only sewn in at the ends and not sides, in slinky pants.l

The elastic is pretty, but goes funny in the wash and the stripes bunch up so you have to rearrange them after each wash if want them to look ok.

Not bad as cycling pants. Pretty poor as period pants and definitely not suitable for untidy heavy flow. Check out the basics ones instead.

(Would be lovely normal pants without the pads and I’d forgive the elastic issue given how soft they are).

Silky soft

These felt really nice and soft but the gusset bit is quite padded at the back and felt fairly noticeable when wearing. Only my 2nd pair of period pants but they are good for lighter days :)

So soft.

I have a few different pairs of WUKA and was excited to tried these ones. They’re so soft and comfortable but my only issue is there isn’t a lot of protection on the front. They’re be good for lighter days but for heavier days I’d use a different pair or would use a pad as well.

Super soft and light feeling, but still great protection

Loved the feel of these when I opened my parcel, so soft and light. I have used these for a few months now and they still offer the great protection you expect from wuka. My only suggestion would be that they didn't have the writing on the front and that they could come in some different colours. Highly Recommend
