With its library of leak-proof period underwear, Modibodi has been capturing the attention of women worldwide this year – and no doubt, our Hypebae editors too. Advocating for comfortable and reusable protection, its mission is focused on providing an array of alternative solutions for that time of the month.

For those not yet acquainted with period underwear, Modibodi makes the process of finding the right pair simple. Starting at protection, you can select from a range of absorbencies with each pair featuring the brand’s built-in 3mm lining to ensure all levels of flow are covered. Then comes the fun part – browsing styles.

Over the past few months, Modibodi has expanded its offering, most recently adding the Intimates line to its new arrivals. Comprised of the Renaissance lingerie collection and the delicate Boudoir range, the new line shows how period products are entering a more fun and playful era, of which the brand is confidently in the driving seat. A wide array of basic briefs, active shorts, and bikini bottoms also punctuate its everyday collections in various tones and patterns, covering all bases for every user.

Delving into the library of styles, Hypebae shares the five must-have products you should keep in your drawer to feel your best during your period.

BOUDOIR TANGA BRIEF

Where sustainability meets cute design.

The Tanga briefs get my vote on any day of the week. As someone who is always trying to find the more environmentally friendly option, I’ve often struggled to find leak-proof period protection that isn’t harming the planet, and this pair delivers in its entirety. They feature natural and recycled fabrics (from the multi-layered protection to the mesh outer layer), can be washed in a low-temperature setting, and therefore, can be reused every single month.

Not only are they a waste-free option, but they’re super cute too. They have a scalloped edge, a polka dot pattern and bows, and this particular pair also features a green and pink color palette – at first look, anyone would think they’re just regular underwear. If you’re looking for period pants that are cute, sustainable, and comfortable, I couldn’t recommend the Tanga briefs more!

BASIC CHEEKY BIKINI

All the essentials packed in one must-have staple.

I’m not someone who gets overly excited about underwear or lingerie – I usually stick to my tried-and-true basics. But when my period hits, I’m all about comfort and reliability, and that’s exactly what Modibodi’s Basic Cheeky Bikini delivers. It’s cute, super comfortable, and has completely replaced the need for pads or tampons. It’s now my go-to during that time of the month. The black polybrush liner feels incredibly silky on the skin which is a game changer, especially since some other undies can cause serious chafing when worn with pads. With these, I never have to worry about layering anything extra; it’s all I need.

RENAISSANCE THONG

Sexy styles don’t have to stop on your period.

When you’re on your period, oftentimes you’re faced with two options: your granny panties or a cuter pair at the risk of leaks. So, when I was told a thong could offer leak-proof support, admittedly, I was skeptical. But, with the Camille Thong, you really do get the best of both worlds – beautiful design and peace of mind.

It truly exceeded my expectations in both design and function. It seamlessly combines sensuality and practicality in an elegant two-tone colorway of “Peach” and “Bordeaux Red.” Modibodi didn’t miss on the details – this underwear is woven with intricate scalloped lace and comfortably hugs the hips with an elastic waistband. It feels as comfortable as my go-to, everyday underwear, yet includes a cleverly discreet, absorbent lining – ideal for lighter period days. The Camille Thong looks great and feels great, period. The best part? You can pair this underwear with the brand’s V-neck plunge Sylvie Bralette.

BOUDOIR HIGH WAIST BRIEF

Reliability for those on the go.

When that time of the month hits, all I care about is comfort. These briefs are all about comfort without being frumpy and I’ll be honest, it’s a combination that’s pretty hard to come by! The high-leg cut and subtle sheer fabric feel that little bit sensual while the high waist and scalloped elastic sit comfortably on my skin, providing a flattering fit when I need it the most. The patented lining (which honestly feels invisible) protects me from any leakage and guarantees I’m chafe-free while still looking great. It’s a win-win situation.

- Navi Ahluwalia, Editor

PUMA ACTIVE CYCLE SHORT

Passing the test of any demanding workout… or coffee-shop run!

Exercising while on your period can be hit or miss, but as someone who has an active lifestyle and doesn’t like to be stopped by anything (much less by my own body) the PUMA x Modibodi Active Cycle Shorts are a dream come true. Not only are they beyond comfortable and reliable, but they also have pockets! (And who doesn’t love a pocket?)

In part, one of the reasons why I love these shorts is because they double up as my weekend go-tos. Perfect for those days when I’m running around between cleaning, coffee shop runs, and workouts. The super-soft recycled fabric is flexible enough for yoga, while also being supportive enough for running, boxing, and met-con too. Made for moderate to heavy period days, they feel snug and secure. They’ve never once let me down when it comes to leaks either. The mesh interior dries quickly without feeling like I’m wearing a nappy, while the merino wool layer controls odor, meaning the only thing I need to worry about during my workouts is properly breaking a sweat.
