NORA period pants have a hidden absorbent layer to soak away the blood. The stay dry layer keeps it locked away in the corelayer to keep you feeling dry all day or night.
Our wearer trial feedback was unanimous with all the testers saying they were happy to wear overnight and for long periods of time, even during their heaviest flow.
Our reusable period pads and bags have been made in the UK at our factory in Glasgow since 2016, and we're very excited to share that all our period pants made after Jan 2023 proudly bear the "MADE in UK" label too. UK production is something we are really passionate about; it means you can be safe in the knowledge that your reusable period pants are not only planet friendly but they are people friendly too. Ethical manufacturing is core to what we do here at NORA and having our own production facility gives us 100% control, and total peace of mind.
Simply put period pants are specially designed to be worn during your period without the need for a tampon or pad. They look and feel just like your regular underwear but they have a hidden slimline absorbent core with a stay dry top layer next to your skin. No more up to your armpit bum huggers either, they come in a whole range of styles to fit all shapes, flows and sizes.
Nora period pants work in a similar way to period pads, with a hidden absorbent layer to soak away the blood, and the stay dry layer keeping it tucked away in the core layer to keep you feeling dry all day. You just wash and reuse them. They’re designed with different absorbency levels so you can wear them day or night. Our wearer trial feedback was unanimous with all the testers saying they were happy to wear overnight and for long periods of time, even during their heaviest flow.
Just give them a quick rinse in cold water after use, store them in our waterproof reusable bag, then wash them at 30 degrees with non-bio powder and no fabric softener. Remember, wash them within 48 hours of use and don’t let them dry out.
Currently we offer sizes 8 to 20 which can of course be suitable for teens. We have provided a below size guide which allows you to get a better idea of the size you need:
