Choosing the Right Thinx for You
- Share this article Copy to clipboard

We hear variations of this Q pretty frequently: “Period undies. Got it. So which ones should I buy?”
Thinx period underwear comes in soooo many cute and different underwear styles, it can be overwhelming to choose just one (or three, if you’re trying out one of our Saver Sets). But the truth is, there’s no *right* answer here! Depending on what underwear style you typically feel the most comfortable in, there’s def a perfect pair of Thinx for you.
Thinx is engineered with leakproof technology, so no matter which style you choose, you're sure to get thin and discreet protection for up to 12 hours. Whether you opt for the Brief, Bikini, or any other style, you'll enjoy peace of mind with Thinx, capable of holding the equivalent of 12 tampons' worth of fluid.
Hopefully, this style guide of some of our faves in layman’s terms will help you out:
Hiphugger
- Our best-selling style! Why, you ask? The Hiphugger is great for everyday wear, complete with a comfy lace waistband and a full-coverage fit.
Boyshort
- Leak protection should def be gender neutral. Our Boyshort will have your back (and your front, and your sides) on your heaviest days.
Hi-Waist
- All you need to know about the Hi-Waist is that they look SEXY AF and I don't want to wear anything else, even when I'm not on my period. Seriously, our high waist cut is *that* good.
Sleep Shorts
- Over a thousand 5-star reviews can confirm: these are the holy grail for sleeping on your period. Our Sleep Shorts have built-in period underwear with extra coverage for overnight peace of mind from leaks.
