Stride Everyday Panties Review and Giveaway

Bladder leakage isn't a topic that a lot of women (& men too!) like to talk about.   But it happens to quite a few people as they age, as a result of medications or treatments, or to a lot of women after pregnancy and delivery.   I delivered two children who weighted 10# each, so I'll let you guess about the condition of my bladder.   

In the past women had to rely on wearing sanitary pads, or incontinence products, or else worry if they coughed or sneezed or even strained or laughed unexpectedly, they could lose urine.   But now there's a panty that's taking that worry away.    The new Stride Everyday Panties have a special lining with OQUOS technology that can hold up to 1 oz of liquid, and retains it's absorption abilities up to 100 washes.    Just throw them in with your normal laundry and they're good to go again.   More cost effective and easier than buying multiple packages of pads.    Plus the lining is so thin you can't really tell you're wearing protection.   Sounds good to me!

 Their site describes the OQUOS technology as this:

OQUOS™ Technology The first layer of the OQUOS™ technology wicks away moisture 8 times more effectively than cotton for superior dryness. It is designed to maintain its shape to improve body contact during normal activity (such as walking, running or sneezing) and will continue to provide comfort and protection for up to 100 washes. Plus, it’s so discreet no one will know you’re wearing it!
The patented OQUOS™ sub-layers rapidly disperse light leaks, naturally deodorizing while the super-absorbent fibers contained in the liner absorb up to an ounce of moisture.

They have numerous styles from the lacy thong shown at top to the mid rise briefs shown to the right and several other styles.   They also have sizes ranging from Xsmall to XXlarge.   They come in a variety of colors also.  

They've even been featured in Shape Magazine in the Sept. 2010 issue as an Editor's Pick!  They recommend them for runners.



Stride has an online quiz you can take to see if they're right for you.   They aren't really recommended for people with extreme leakage
