Meet the Boxer Brief - Your Period, Your Style

This post was written by Madeleine and Lisa.

M: For over two decades, Lunapads (now Aisle) has been all about making awesome natural, body- and planet-friendly alternatives to disposable pads and tampons. Specifically, we’ve been making washable cloth pads and period underwear since 1993, because I was getting infections from using tampons.

For me, the best part of making the switch to reusable products turned out to be about way more than freedom from irritation: I discovered an amazing new way to feel at home in my body. It was this feeling of comfort and liberation that inspired me to start a business in order to share this feeling with others.

BOXER Brief Luna Undies for Periods

There has been a lot happening in the period underwear space in the last few years: new high-tech fabrics, provocative marketing campaigns, and sporty functionality, to name just a few. Which is awesome!

Meanwhile, we have continued to do what we have always done: stick as much as possible to natural fabrics and local manufacturing while delivering first-rate performance, talking about periods respectfully & inclusively and listening to our customers.

Our new Boxer Briefs have been designed to reflect all of these values, with attention to a few particular areas of feedback.


L: We've received lots of positive messages over the years in response to our efforts to position periods within a trans-inclusive and gender-diverse framework.

We've also heard that our product line isn't bringing the same energy.

We know traditionally feminine cuts of underwear don't work for everyone, and that our collection has lacked options for trans men and other folks with masculine gender identities and/or expressions. 

We heard the call to add a boxer brief and were moved to do so because we knew it offered opportunities for more people to feel comfortable, confident, and affirmed: exactly the experience we aim to deliver to all of our customers.

Our new boxer brief looks, fits and feels like a classic boxer brief — with topstitching details and a wide, comfy waistband — and was designed specifically to meet the needs of trans/masculine people with periods.
