Modibodi launches all-gender period pants that include a packer pouch

Modibodi is well-known for its comfy period pants and oh-so absorbent leak-proof swimwear and now, the brand has launched an ‘all-gender’ collection that looks pretty revolutionary.

The new items include the Pride Longline Short – the first ever period underpant that can hold a packer, designed to empower trans masculine people who have periods.

The new design is being introduced alongside a limited Pride edition of the brand’s best-selling X brief. 

Through the launch of the underwear, Modibodi is hoping to use its platform to break societal taboos and drive awareness about menstrual inclusion for all bodies and all genders. 

Trans masc model Oscar McGregor is also working with the brand to help describe the breadth of menstrual experiences. Oscar featured in an intimate campaign video designed to educate others and celebrate all people who menstruate. 

For Oscar, being a part of the campaign is helping him too. 

‘To me breaking the taboo that only women menstruate means that all people with periods can feel heard and affirmed in their experience rather than stigmatised by society,’ he said. 

‘As a member of the trans masc. community, navigating my experience of period care can be extremely dysmorphic. 

‘The whole narrative around menstruation is very feminine and as someone who doesn’t recognise themselves in this gendered language it can be a really challenging experience every month. 

‘Working with Modibodi as part of this campaign has enabled me to not only give voice to mine and my community’s experiences, but to also be part of a practical real-world solution in period care.’
