After testing these leak-protection pants for weeks, I can confidently say they’re a game-changer for incontinence care—but with a few quirks. Here’s the real deal:

The Good: The waterproof PUL material is no joke. Unlike flimsy plastic covers I’ve tried, these actually prevent leaks when paired with diapers. The high back and contoured thighs kept my mom’s bedding dry overnight—a miracle after years of morning laundry disasters. They’re also surprisingly durable; mine survived 20+ washes without losing elasticity.

The Bad: Sizing is TRICKY. The leg bands run tight—I had to size up twice for my bedbound patient to avoid red marks. And yes, they crinkle like a grocery bag at first (though it lessens with wear). If discretion is key, opt for the beige color—it’s quieter and stains less than white.

Pro Tip: Hand-wash or line-dry to preserve the waterproof layer. For heavy wetters, layer them over tab-style diapers—the combo stopped leaks even during long car rides.

Verdict: Not perfect (that leg tightness!), but worth it for the peace of mind. Just order at least one size up!
