Flatulence Filtering Women's Hi-Waist Briefs

Update on review: After having these for more than a month I can find no diminution in effectiveness. I had to take a long flight just a few days after receiving these. I had the worst most flatulence ever and these dissolved it. Not a whiff of odor. I wear them over underwear and only when I'm going to be around people, to make them last. [I live alone.] I wash them in cold water with a pinch of baking soda and a good swish, rinse in cold running water, pat dry in a towel [never wring] and then hang indoors to finish drying. I would have become a recluse without these. They're worth every penny and I plan to lay in a stock in case Shreddies runs out of my size.Many months later I am still satisfied. I don't know what I would do without Shreddies since there's nothing like them. What with the plague I've been buying as many pairs as I can afford since I can't go out or have company without them.

I love this underwear. I brought the XL for comfort. I am a size 12 US. I recommend hand washing with no perfume soap. My first pair, I followed the instructions and used baking soda in cold water but the charcoal quit working. I brought a second and it still works after two months. I also wear them over other underwear at night. Would like to build up a supply but cannot get them on Amazon right now in anything but small. I am concerned about ordering from the company direct because of overseas location and delays.

Opening the box, I was expecting more because let's face it, this is an expensive pair of underwear. I was hoping it would have a better wrapping. Instead of a clear plastic box and a plain purple paper explaining this underwear.I took it out the box and it is hideous. It looked like an underwear with built in padding: like an overnight pad. The materials listed are modal jersey fabric sandwiching the "activated carbon cloth" for the middle which also makes up the rest of the underwear. Seriously for an expensive pair, why couldn't they use something else that's much more durable and breathable like I don't know- COTTON material?I am a vegan with ibs so I was desperate and succumbed to this. The reviews online with the videos on YouTube, heck! Even the reviews on here gave me hope that perhaps this is the answer to my prayers- well it's not!Bought two shreddies and I've worn each underwear the whole day and let me tell you. They didn't work. The scent of my flatus seeped through and in seconds reached my nose and those who were around me. Mind you, I was also taking chlorophyll and devrom pills so my flatus is supposed to be odorless. I had one of the worst stomach pain episode accompanied by gas and this test of odor was not passed by Shreddies, Chlorophyll, nor Devrom all taken together.After just one day each of the shreddies, because the makers did not use a good quality material and instead used something cheap, the Shreddies after one day had holes on the edge where it holds the activated carbon part to block the odor.The box says "the fabric remains 2-3 years providing the care instructions are followed correctly" , it's funny because it didn't even last a day and it's already falling apart. Seriously don't waste your time, this product is not worth it.

I've been using Shreddies for a couple years and they work great, especially when they're brand new. I have noticed a decrease in effectiveness with each subsequent washing (as recommended in soda crystals aka Sodium Carbonate, cold water, gentle cycle or hand washing; line or hang drying).I wear over disposable underwear due to incontinence caused by colorectal cancer, so I don't wash until absolutely needed.I've found that I need to buy them a little small, otherwise they don't work for me. The odor needs to be "locked in" by snugness around the legs and waist. If the Shreddies are nice and comfy, they won't be as effective.Several folks have mentioned wanting colors other than black, and multi-packs. If you order directly from the company in the U.K., you can order in white or beige as well as black, and in multi-packs of 3 and maybe even 6 (it's been awhile since I ordered mine). With the current exchange rate of GBP (pounds sterling), it might even be cheaper to get them from overseas! You can find their website online.As a final note, due to my cancer I have no sphincter control so don't even know when I've had a BM, and I can tell you that I've come home with a full diaper of doo-doo, but with Shreddies I've had no idea I'd even had an accident. Before I found them I couldn't leave the house or be around anyone other than immediate family, and even they weren't too thrilled with my presence. I have so much more confidence and a brighter outlook since discovering Shreddies. As long as I can afford to, I will buy them at any price!

I’m disappointed that the size was so different than the ones I have bought for years. These are both medium. The top one was the older pair I bought. The new one rides higher on waist and the crotch hangs lower . Before they changed the design I would have given them a five star. I didn’t return them because I had already worn them.

This is the first review I've ever written for Amazon but had to write this because I can not say enough good about this product. These have saved my social life! I had to take a weekend car trip in February and share a room with a woman for the weekend and I was a bit terrified. I got a pair of these and they work. Did follow the suggestion of wearing them over my underwear since they are so expensive. They are worth every penny. I have also machine washed and dried them several times and they did not lose any effectiveness. I have a couple of week long trips coming up this year where I will again spend a lot of time in a car and will share a room, so I just ordered 3 more pair. My only complaint is that they don't come in colors or hipsters.
