Party In My Pants (also known as PIMPS) are not your mother’s reusable menstrual pads. In fact, this sister-run business generates more of a hipster buzz than a hippie vibe. One sister is a sewing whiz and the other an art school graduate, and it shows.
They offer their pads in a thrilling-to-the-fashionista assortment of trendy, quirky prints, including the much-coveted galaxy print and an unexpected line of dinosaur themed pads (at the time of this writing). The pads come in 11 different sizes to cover all phases of the menstrual cycle.

Special Features |
In addition to their large assortment of beautiful, funny and unique fabric patterns (unicorns, kitty cats or leopard print, anyone?) Party in My Pants is different from other companies in a few ways. Their pads are:
- Top-stitched, rather than surge stitched, for extra comfort
- Designed as an all-in-one unit; there’s no need to add inserts
- Backed by a breathable nylonleak-resistant shield
- Made with wings that have nickel-free plated snaps for a secure fit
Estimated to last for five years

Benefits & Positive Feedbacks: |
Part of the company’s mission statement is to make that time of the month more fun, and from what customers have to say, I think they’ve done it. They offer a kaleidoscope of prints in each size, and their print selection regularly changes as they update with their newest fabrics; one of their new offerings is a print of the periodic table! Get it?
Party in My Pants (PIMPs):
- Come in a large selection of fun prints
- The pads are some of the thinnest cloth pads on the market
- The double snaps make the pads highly adjustable
- Machine washable and dryer safe
“The price point is a bit higher than other cloth pads on the market, but the quality really makes up for it.” (PartyPantsPads.com)
“What isn’t to love? They come in colorful, cute designs, have organic cotton pads available, and last for ages. I think I first bought mine about four years ago, and haven’t needed to replace a single one.” (GreenOptions.com)

Downsides & Negative Feedbacks: |
My personal complaint about PIMPs is that there are too many beautiful designs to choose from. After doing a little digging, here are some other negatives I’ve found based on customer reviews. Party In My Pants products:
- Are not the cheapest
- May slide when in place due to nylon backing
- May have minor bunching possibly due to nylon backing
- Are not as breathable as flannel-backed pads
“They only downside is that they are always making more cute pads, and I keep wanting to buy more and more!” (GreenOptions.com)
“I don’t find them as pretty as some of the other pads I bought (like from yurtcraft) and they are quite pricey compared to pads I found on Etsy.com, but they occasionally have sales where you can get older colors for much cheaper.” (GreenOptions.com)

About the Company |
Sisters Luci and Lydia Daum own and run this mini-business based out of Ashland, Wisconsin. The dynamic designing and sewing duo make all of their products by hand. Their visual flair is apparent in the appealing designs they use for their pads. In addition to menstrual pads, they also make warming pillows with images of kitties on them, so adorable they look like they just popped off your Pinterest feed and into your lap.
I’ve been using this brand for about a year or so now. I absolutely love them. They’re my favorite brand so far.
I inquired about the sample patterns and got a curt response form the owner. It’s odd that they would treat a potential new customer rudely but I got to save my coins. From that interaction alone, I can’t recommend the company. Cute patterns tho.
So pretty and soft
I agree,they lost my business the first time for me too but I lost 50 $ in my learning this…not to mention iv found Sc much better online , the material,fabric,deals,& made to order…& good people !! so I’m glad I didn’t Continue,as I become a loyal customer…
I’m a very heavy bleeder who can’t use tampons or menstrual cups, and I was afraid to switch over to cloth/reusable pads because I bleed through everything. This company makes a “Queen” sized pad, which is admittedly huge but works so very well for the first day or two of my very heavy, super messy periods. I can sleep with one on and not worry about my pajamas, my sheets, or my spouse getting bled on throughout the night.
Their other sizes are great for the rest of my period too… I have both flannel and cotton pads from them, my one issue was using the flannel one in August in the southeastern US (which was a stupid me thing and nothing to do with them… flannel in hot, humid weather is just a bad idea). In colder weather it’s been fine, I don’t think I need to explain why flannel + period + heat & humidity is a really bad combination.
The only thing I did not like, and do not use, is the free pantyliner I received with my first order… It slides forward, backward, and flips around as I move throughout the day.
They slide a lot. I bought one and didn’t like it. It bunched up and just didn’t feel comfortable. The buttons were really stiff too.
Eh, not my fav and probably wouldn’t buy again. The nylon top isn’t so comfortable for me and it slides around. Plus they run pretty small. They’re not kidding when they say mini. When I snap the liner closed it makes my underpants bunch. They’re that small. I guess the upside is that it’s very thin.
I received a free panty liner from Party In My Pants and really like the fun prints they have available! The texture is smooth and comfortable. The liner is very thin and I didn’t have a problem with seeing it through my clothing. The snaps are easy and don’t come undone. I used it as a backup to my menstrual cup. The only problem I have is the nylon backing caused the liner to move around quite a bit so I had spotting on my underwear instead of the panty liner. Overall, I really liked my first experience using reusable pads!
Love these, I don’t have to worry about getting a rash like with disposable pads and they are very quiet.
