Pad undies that keep your pad where you put it
If your pad shifts, folds over, or peels off halfway through the day, the problem usually isn't the pad. It's what's underneath it. Smooth, seamless underwear gives a disposable pad's adhesive nothing to grip, and a reusable pad with no adhesive slides around even more. PadStay fixes that.
How the gusset holds your pad
Every PadStay style has a soft organic cotton floating gusset. Your pad wraps naturally underneath it, or a reusable pad snaps its wings around it, so it's held snug from both sides instead of relying on sticky tape alone. No shifting, no bunching, no folding, and no adhesive residue wrecking your favourite undies.
One honest thing to know first
PadStay undies hold a pad. They don't absorb on their own. That's the whole point: you choose the protection, from a light liner to an overnight pad, and the gusset keeps it in place. If you'd rather have absorbency built in, with no pad needed, see our period and leakproof underwear instead.
Works with disposable pads and reusable cloth pads
Use whatever you already reach for. A winged disposable pad tucks under the gusset and holds far better than it would on bare fabric. A reusable cloth pad with poppers snaps neatly around it. If you're switching to cloth pads to cut down on waste, this is the easiest way to make them stay put. Our own reusable pads and liners are made to pair with them.
Seamless, soft, no VPL
The rest is pure Pure Snug. Buttery TENCEL Micro Modal, a hot-pressed waistband and hems that don't dig in or roll down, and no visible line under your clothes. The gusset does its job without any bulk you can feel or see.
