Period-Proof Undergarments

The Knixteen Undergarments Aim to Destigmatize Menstruation

— July 12, 2017 — Life-Stages
Knixteen's period-proof undergarments introduce a collection of leak-preventing underwear designed specifically for teens.

Knixteen's parent company, 'Knixwear,' is a Toronto-based startup that has expanded its range to include products specifically developed for teens. According to Knixwear's founder and CEO Joanna Griffiths, "The decision to expand into a youth-based line came from listening to our customers and hearing repeatedly that they wished that leak-proof underwear existed when they were young."

The Knixteen period-proof undergarments are made out a soft, performance fabric and feature the patented leak-proof technology that distinguishes Knixwear from other products. A carbon cotton layer has been added inside the fabric that makes the panties quick-drying and moisture-wicking. Available in bikini or boy-cut styles, the Knixteen panties come in a zipped case that can be re-purposed however the users likes.
