The Cloth Nappy Co.
Cheeky Pants - Feeling CONFIDENT - High-waisted Shapewear Period Pants
✨ Great for: When you want to feel confident and streamlined under your clothing. Tried and tested in a cocktail dress, on a first date and on the sofa!
We know that sometimes you want to wear pants with just a bit more control, defining your shape, with sleek lines under fitted clothing. High-waisted control top, means you're sleek and super comfortable plus leak-free with confidence. The perfect eco alternative to tampons or sanitary pads.
The inner absorbent sections runs from front to back waistband and features our usual 4 layers, which are absorbent and moisture wicking, keeping you dry and comfy all day - or night long.
As with any sanitary option, if you're using these as your only means of protection, on your heaviest days we recommend that you change them during the day, just like you would a pad or tampon, or wear a cloth san pad that can we whipped out at lunchtime without any faff.
The Cheeky Period Pants range do not have any logos or labels on the outside of the pants anywhere making them very discrete! They are sold without fancy packaging to keep the price down and saving on unnecessary waste.
Fabric & Care
Body: Nylon/Elastane (75%/25%),
Lining: Cotton/Elastane (95%/5%)
Middle Layer: polyester/nylon (80%/20%).
Inner body 87% Nylon 13% Elastane
Waterproof outer layer of Oeko-Tex certified TPU
With a waterproofed outer layer, you've got maximum protection but also keeping you comfortable:
-
moisture wicking
-
highly absorbent
-
never leak
-
breathable fabric
Machine wash cold (maximum 30 degrees) and then hang dry. Do not use bleach or fabric softener or put them in the tumble dryer. This will affect the absorbency and can cause the elastic to fray.
Can putting period blood in the washing machine contaminate my other washing?
An average period is just 30ml to 72ml of blood over the course of 5 days (= 5-12 teaspoons worth) so there is only a small amount on the pad anyway! For best results, we recommend cold soaking before washing. But even if you put your soiled items in the washing straight away there is NO risk of 'contaminating' anything else in the wash... so chuck em in!
Sizing
Sizes are true to UK sizes.
The cut of the style means they are snug around the leg. If you feel this will be an issue for you then we would recommend ordering the next size up from your normal size.
