Care Instructions

After use, rinse your Saalt Wear leakproof underwear in cold water to help avoid staining. Then, hand wash or machine wash on cold, preferably in a Saalt Mesh Laundry Bag intended for delicates. You can use detergent but pass on the fabric softener, bleach, or iron to protect the tech. Proudly hang dry—energy efficient and free. We recommend avoiding putting Saalt Wear in the dryer, as high temperatures can degrade the elastics and fabric over time.

    I bought myself a few pairs and I'm not kidding when I say they are so comfortable and fit perfect, I would wear them every single day!!! I feel so good about replacing all the pantyliners I use when I am on my period. Thank you Saalt!

  • Euna

    I wanted to avoid panty lines and the bulk of pads while still wearing leggings at the gym. My solution was Saalt's seamless underwear. I was skeptical at first, but honestly they're very thin and comfortable making it the perfect thing to wear under leggings.

  • Michelle C.

    These are great! The period panties I've ordered from other brands feel like thin diapers mixed with granny panties. These are cute, they work, and I'm definitely going to buy more!

nice design

These high waist panties get the job done. A medium fits a bit too snug, so I think I will size up next time. I'm 5 ft 5 in and 155 pounds.

I love saalt. These run a little tighter. I use them usually day 3ish when bloating starts to decrease. Paired with the bralette i feel put together again.

I LOVE this pair of underwear. I have no others in this cut, but for some reason this particular pair makes me feel so empowered and attractive during a time of month where I'm just feeling gross otherwise. I love the way it breathes on the sides and the peak coverage is good, just like all of salts products I've tried so far.

LOVED the style and length of these! They fit perfect and so comfy!

This is my first Saalt purchase and I will never go back to pads! I am so happy with their leakproof underwear and I love their humanitarian mission! Not only are these underwear leakproof as promised, they are also comfortable for all day wear...not to mention beautiful. Treat yourself to a pair!

I bought this underwear because you promise to have enough cover, in the front and in the back, but I never imagined that the gusset was the half of the normal underwear gussets, there is no point on having cover the front but in the middle of my legs the panty gets inserted into the lavia. . . I could even wear them. so disappointed

Not bulky and clumpy like some of the less expensive brands. My daughters are very happy with their Saalt Wear!

These fit great and i love the French cut with sheer sides.

I thought I was purchasing urine leak proof underwear, which I didn't get, The painties have never been out of their package, and I want to return them, and get my money back -- how is this done?

Hope you reconsider. All it needed to make it perfect was a one inch drop in the waist height. The full front to back gusset coverage is perfect.

Most attractive period underwear I've ever owned! They don't have as much stretch as other Saalt fabrics. I am a 4/6 normally, and I ordered a medium. For this style, I wish I had sized up to a size large. Otherwise I love them! Hard to find PFAs-free period underwear - I'm grateful for this option.

I ordered these after tiring of wearing adult diapers and bulky pads. I am a male who has incontinence due to prostate cancer surgery. These under wear are perfect for the male anatomy because the gusset goes all the way up front to the waste band. I would recommend any man who is going through the same condition as myself to give these panties a try, you'll be glad you did! They are light, not hot or bulky, and you forget you have them on. I'm 5' 9'' and 185 and the XL fit perfectly.

High waisted which I like, high french leg opening, the complete front and back gusset leaves no pad lines, which is wonderful! Older women using for light urinary leaks, have leaking 1-3X a day, about the size of a quarter, These underwear has worked beautifully. Notice no odors Wear a size 14-16, ordered a 3XL, because my waist is large 42 inches. Could probably go down a size but was able to wear these fine.

These were my second pair i purchased from Saalt. I bought these to wear overnight. They were perfect. No leaks, very comfortable, and very cute. I like the style. Just wish there were more fun colors

Just as advertised. Full coverage for greater confidence. Comes in pretty colors. Quite feminine.

Please wash before wearing to get rid of the odor of the padding. I like that the panty was high rise but not the fact that they kept getting into my but cheek. I ware boy shorts and I gave these a try. That was my only issue. If it fit in the back like it does in the front, it would be a winner for me. This is my preference and has nothing to do with the garment. I like wearing a garment and going about my day without having to tend to it every few minutes.

I love saalt, but wanted the pad to be longer. These are amazing. I am so happy and feel so comfortable and confident in them.

Enjoy feeling dry and fresh while use a non toxic product

Love these but order up at least one size in this style, two if you want comfort.

Not only are these adorable, but they work. I did initially purchase a small, but they were a bit too snug for me (especially on my cycle!) so they sent me a new pair in a bigger size and I am in love.

This is a very nice product. It's comfortable and I probably could have sized down 1 size. There is plenty of coverage where it's needed most. The one thing I am not crazy about is the mesh sides. I would prefer a full coverage panty vs this mesh, but it would not stop me from buying this again.

I have only worn my new underwear for a short period of time . They are a little tighter than what I was expecting to get in a size medium . Also the leg of the underwear around the back top of my leg is gapping and not flush with my leg . It's not super comfortable. I'm a very particular consumer , and especially about the comfort of my undergarments. Your customer service was especially excellent to address my initial comments about the first pair that I bought. You were so gracious to send me another style and color , at no additional charge , as a replacement . I thank you so much for that. . I hope that you take this review as constructive criticism and it doesn't mean that I still may try another style and size . If you have any suggestions, please let me know .

48 years old and took the plunge. Trying something new. I'm mad at myself for not switching sooner.

Perfect protection. Had to size up from bikini style (xl to xxl) I'm a petite proportion so it comes up a little higher in the back and has gaps in the back but wearable and does was it's supposed to. Would purchase again

Runs small, but great otherwise. Make sure you size up! The full gusset and fit is great, just one size larger than I usually get from saalt.

I used this product overnight on a spotting day. It worked as intended and was super cute! It is on the tighter side of a large, but fits well still. I like the tight feel to ensure the panties don’t shift in my sleep and that there is protective material from the very top of the front to the very top of the back. I’m happy with this and will likely buy more for overnight disc insurance and spotting protection!

I wore these on a midweek period day and did not notice any wetness at all, totally dry and comfortable I'm 5'6", 140 and usually wear a size 4. They are a tiny bit tight but not so much that it was uncomfortable for me, but probably depends on your preference

Size up for comfort! These are awesome ✨

I recently switched birth controls and have had my first two periods in seven years. I was really skeptical that these would help, especially since I typically have heavier periods. Let me tell you, I am sold! The overnight shorts are like miracle workers. They protect and help me stay clean. Do yourself a favor get period underwear!

These best part about how amazing these are, is the fact that I can wear them under tighter clothes and you can't tell I'm wearing period underwear . Other ones I've tried totally look obvious under leggings or tight dresses. Not these! Very comfortable too and get the job done.

I normally wear a small (US size 5), and had to go up a size; mediums fit perfectly. The full gussets is perfect for my needs. The high-cut and mesh sides are very comfortable.

I now wear Saalt products every single day. They allow me to feel confident that no matter what, whether period days or not, I will stay dry!

They are so beautiful and so functional! As someone who counts on these alone for period care and has tried lots of brands, I am impressed!!

I am mind-blown at how good these are. I have been on the perfect underwear to bleed in for years and nothing compares to Saalt...truly. I feel so dry and so hugged in comfortably and they don't feel like a diaper! I am sooo glad I am finally connected with the winner of all bleeding panties ❤️

I love this cut and it woks like a charm <3

I got a pair of seamless underwear that I really love but these were tight even though they were the same size as the other pair I bought and the stitching on the band started to come undone after the first wear. I want to like them more than I do and i would not repurchase due to the quality of the stitching.

These are some of the best period underwear I have ever used! I was amazed at how much they absorbed, how thin and sleek they are, and how dry I felt. But the biggest bonus was that I feel so feminine and beautiful when I wear them - which is not something I often feel when on my period. I loved them so much I bought more. I'm a Saalt user for life. Don't walk - RUN to buy these. You won't regret it.
