I Tried Period Leggings
Safiya Nygaard・15 minutes read
Safiya tested period leggings by PantyProp with built-in pad replacement, finding them bulky but secure, requiring adjustments to conceal the pad. Despite being absorbent and comfortable for walking, the leggings had aesthetic issues with visible seams and a bulky pad, making them more suitable for those who prefer longer tops to cover them.

Period leggings: absorbent but lacking in discretion
- The period leggings were tested during a trip to Disneyland, where they were found to be absorbent and comfortable for walking extensively. However, the stitching on the side caused slight chafing after prolonged use.
- The leggings were praised for providing a good place for a pad to stick, making them suitable for those who prefer pads during their period without wearing underwear. They were comfortable for exercising but had aesthetic issues with a visible gusset that wrinkled up, affecting the overall look.
- While the leggings were decently comfortable and functional for certain activities, the main complaint centered around their aesthetics. The company did not fully commit to the design, leaving a bulky pad visible and lacking in discretion, making them more suitable for those who wear long tunics rather than crop tops.
