Mixed review

Yes, I recommend this

I bought 2 packs - one for me and one for my daughter. I found the pants to be comfortable and effective. My daughter (age 15) was less keen and said they were not suitable for heavy days.

Not comfortable

No, I don't recommend this

They are really uncomfortable. The lace edging is stiff and scratchy. The gusset is too wide and bulky. I doubt I'll wear them. I ordered my usual size but they come up large. They go almost up to my belly button.

Wife does lots of driving and feels that these give her peace of mind when not close to any services. Am told that they are comfortable to wear and feel like they are of good quality.

Really like the fit of these knickers. They’re flattering on the tummy, and slim on the pad

Better than light incontinence pads

Yes, I recommend this

Catches all the Oooops moments, no odour, nice and warm given it’s colder and look normal. Well cut, remember not to tumble dry them and they really work for any leaks.

Helpful innovation.

I bought these somewhat hesitantly but so far have been impressed. I think they are ideal for the beginning or end and definitely have a place.

Excellent period pants for teens/tweens.

Excellent, work well for medium to heavy flow, comfortable and have lasted well after many washes. Better than various others we’ve tried. Brilliant for tweens/teens instead of pads.

Very well thought out product

Yes, I recommend this

I often wear these for night time during my period and they haven’t even leaked once. Which shows this is a revolutionary development for ladies on periods and a very well thought out product.

No, I don't recommend this

The quality of these knickers has drastically changed I bought some few years back which are still going strong. The place elastic at the top do not feel secure and feel flimsey

Superb!!

Yes, I recommend this

Marks & Spencer’s period pants are outstanding. The fit is excellent, the comfort level is superb, and they provide reliable protection throughout the day. A purposeful, eco-friendly option that doesn’t compromise on quality or performance.

Amazing value and quality

Yes, I recommend this

I wear them at night when I'm on my period. High leg makes them really comfortable. Better quality that Modibodi ones which are much more expensive. They dry a lot quicker too.

crotch too wide

Yes, I recommend this

Liked that available in colours other than black/dark and also reasonable price compared to branded products. Using for bladder leaks rather than periods. As others have said - fit is large. I am 12-14 & 12 fits comfortably except I find crotch too wide for comfort. My local store only had high legs & full briefs - would like to compare with bikini to see if they are better.
