When shopping for period underwear it can be tricky choosing the perfect pair, which is why we were excited to hear about WUKA’s world first, Stretch Seamless Period Pants. WUKA is an acronym for Wake Up Kick Ass, and this is the pioneering period pant brand’s latest taboo-busting launch.
Plus, WUKA is passionate about periods not costing the earth and estimates that purchasing one pair of the affordably priced underwear could save 200 single-use disposable sanitary pads or tampons containing plastic from ending up in landfill. It’s worth knowing the sustainability-focused brand also has accreditations from the Better Cotton Initiative, uses Global Organic Textile Standard organic cotton, is registered by The Vegan Society and approved by PETA too.
Discover a comfortable, flattering full-coverage fit
From supporting teens starting their periods to providing protection against leaks, the Stretch Seamless Period Pants also offer everyday comfort perfect for bloating and post-birth, while the two multi-size variations suit a woman’s changing body shape. WUKA has engineered a specially patented Stretch™ technology, meaning the pants are made to last, retain their stretch and mould comfortably. The super absorbent gusset ensures full coverage, ideal for those heavy flow days. Meanwhile, the figure flattering seamless construction serves up a streamline silhouette without a VPL in sight. Made from soft, breathable cotton, the hypoallergenic material is kind to skin too.
What we love about WUKA is the importance placed on period pants being a lifestyle choice to see you through different life stages, embracing the power of a woman’s body. With this seamless pair removing the fear of pants digging in and instead hugging your contours to offer period peace of mind, the leak-proof protection provides up to 12 hours’ wear.
