Wish the inside pas was more wide. She. I move I feel like the period strip is smaller than I want it to be and I worry about it become misaligned. Overthough they are very comfy

Perfect and Secure
Great product! Super cozy and you definitely don't have to worry about any leaks. Love the overall fit too I feel like they're cut in a flattering way. My only criticism is the padded area is just a teeny bit bulky (so not something you'd want to wear under skin tight leggings, etc or you would be able to tell). Otherwise they are perfect!

Super comfy, tends to bunch up during sleep
These sleep shorts are amazing, with one minor flaw. I now one two pairs and have been using them for about 6 periods, so I feel like I've got enough experience with them. Pros: Soft and very comfy. Waistband isn't snug or tight (i hover between an L and XL and went with XL for these). The absorbent part is thick and plush, not stiff like I was expecting. WAY more comfortable than using a huge pad for overnight. I don't even bother with pajama bottoms when i wear these bc they're comfy enough on their own. Cons: If you move around a lot in your sleep, these tend to bunch up. For example, the "shorts" portion that goes down your thighs might ride up and bunch around your crotch. This doesn't interfere with the functionality of the short, but if you have sensory issues with clothing, this might be an issue. Furthermore, due to the bunching, you might get leakage on the non-absorbent part of the short. This leakage has only happened twice to me, though, and it was pretty minor.

ehh… meh? . . ?
My disappointment in the sleep shorts surprised me. The other two styles of briefs I purchased were LIBERATING and LOVELY. But the sleep shorts for some bewildering reason have THE NARROWEST strip of fabric RIGHT WHERE MY BODY NEEDS THE MOST SUPPORT. So—despite the ever-widening band of absorbent shielding that goes TO THE WAIST (nope. I do not sleep upside down OR shed period blood through my navel)—I had a fairly immediate “blow-out” of leaks from BOTH SIDES of the maybe 1. 5” strip that is supposed to protect me all night long. I don’t think capillary action can wick a full flow across that narrow band to the distant broader shielding farther up my body fast enough to be useful here. WHY is my sleep short ESSENTIALLY A THONG?!

Gusset on these is entirely too skinny!
First of all, I love all of my other Saalt undies, these are the only exception. I bought these thinking they’d be the same but the gusset lining is so skinny it not only will leak out the sides but almost equally as annoying it constantly gets sucked up into me into the worst front and back wedgie! Idk who designed these or why they differ so wildly from the good ones but they easily could have had the gusset cover the entire crotch. For something marketed as leakproof that would have been ideal. For an almost $50 investment I expected these to be the same quality as the others I have purchased. I do not recommend this specific pair and will be trying to figure out how to get a refund. I still highly recommend all their other undies.

Narrow pad
I loved the idea of these shorts, but the pad narrows down a lot at the crotch, where you would want it to be wide, which led to leakage. It narrows more than other products of theirs I have and I don’t understand the design decision there

Not leak proof and not really a period care item
They don’t fit well and they have more narrow coverage than any period bikini… I personally don’t recommend them and they bleed through very quickly which isn’t worth it for sleep when other brands make absolutely bleed proof shorts for sleeping. They also move a lot so beware if you have light colored sheets.

Nice sleep short
I love the boxer briefs style and how the absorbency panel runs the whole way from waist band to waist band. I just wish the panel was a little wider along my labia

Nice protection for overnight
Nice protection. Overall, don't like how the legs ride up. I would have preferred a longer length.

As someone who hates using
As someone who hates using pads these underware are impossibly comparable. They are very comfortable as well as absorbent. Will be reccomending to all the women in my life who could use them :u1F970::grinning_face_with_star_eyes:

leak from narrow gusset
These are a bit hard to sleep in as the gusset is quite narrow/ thin. I leaked through the side my first night trying them. I do appreciate how high the built in pad goes up the back of the underwear but there isn't enough coverage.

Very comfortable and good absorption
This is my first time purchasing period underwear and I am so impressed! I was skeptical that they would work but these absorbed my flow really well with no leaks, and they are super comfortable. The only reason I said they kept me “mostly dry” and not “completely dry” is because they couldn’t fully absorb clots very well, so if your flow has large clots these may not be the best option. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase and will be a returning customer.

great for sleeping
They're more padded than I expected, but they are very comfortable for sleeping at any time and during menstrual cycle.

Regret.
Why is the leakproof material mostly air your waist, not where the leak is coming from? I can't believe this design - it leaks in an hour - creates huge messes, I hugely regret buying from this company.

Comfy but coverage in the wrong places
Comfortable but the gusset isn’t wide enough in the crotch. Doesn’t really help to have it go up to your belly button if it still stains on the sides
