More about our Cyclist Louison

Our Louison cyclist is our most versatile model: both designed to be worn under your clothes, it also has a mid-thigh length for wearing alone or in homewear. Dedicated to very heavy flows, it's perfect for post-partum bleeding or hemorrhagic menstrual flows, as its lined absorbent zone rises sufficiently and falls to the top of the thighs. Its light lace elastic waistband adds a delicate finishing touch.

Louison is perfect for all new postpartum mothers, whether in the last days of maternity or at home. A healthy protection that can absorb all the young mother's lochia. The softness of organic cotton and the breathability of eucalyptus fiber will help heal any pain gently (episiotomy, tear, C-section). Over the caesarean scar, with an elastic band that doesn't tighten, Louison sadapts to your shape as a mother-to-be or young mother.

For all those who want to combine sport and periods, Louison is the ideal ally. Worn with or without pants, Louison offers the comfort of organic cotton against perspiration and ideal absorption equivalent to 100ml of blood. Its absorption capacity also makes it ideal for light bladder weakness.

Perfect for securing under a dress or skirt, it will also accompany you on long days, thanks to a maximum wearing time of 12 hours.

Please note that this model has a wide waistband for optimum comfort after childbirth or during bloating periods.

Not suitable for very heavy periods

I ordered 3 cycling shorties, 2 for my 13 year old daughter and 1 for me.
Me: very heavy period, shorty doesn't come on after 2h30.
My daughter: doesn't like the permanent wet and cold effect.
Ps: VERY VERY long drying time.
I wouldn't recommend it, too bad, I had high hopes for this new product.

Hello Laura,

Thank you for choosing our Louison cyclist.

Have you ever used menstrual pants before cycling?

We suggest that you make an appointment with Marine, our expert, to discuss this matter.

Central flow

The cyclist is comfortable to wear and fits well. But with a central flow, leaks arrive relatively easily from the sides, despite all the absorbent surface. To be tested with petals that redirect the flow...

Perfect!

Beautiful shorty! I'm so happy. My nights are so much more restful!
Thanks Elia, it's perfect!

Very good but small

Comfortable and doesn't give too much of the "diaper" feeling you get with other periods pants. I was worried it would be too low but it doesn't irritate the scar in the event of a C-section. Good absorption as far as I can tell, as I haven't had a very heavy flow. Only downside: size small, I took L, I'm 65 kg for 1m60 and it's just right, especially around the thigh, and leaves red marks around the thigh and waist, which is a shame for a product you'd like to wear 24/24 for some time.

The best investment!

It's simple, I use it all the time! In summer in shorts under skirts or long tee-shirts, at night in pyjamas and when it's cold, under jeans! It absorbs perfectly and for a very long time! I recommend

Leaks

Does not absorb immediately, having a very heavy flow, I had leaks. After comparing several brands, this is the one I am least satisfied with. What's more, I never got a reply to my e-mail from customer service. I would not recommend

Hello Florence,

Thank you for your order,

To optimize the absorption of your panties, we recommend several washes before use.

Please note that our after-sales service responds within 48 hours to all e-mails received. If you have not received a reply, this means that we have not received your message. [email protected]

We look forward to hearing from you,

Beautiful day,

Our prices

Why are there no sales?

At Elia, we've opted for 100% French manufacturing, valuing every link in the
production chain: from the cotton manufacturer, to the seamstress who will make your panties, to the order picker.

Sales and fast-fashion are often the result of overproduction of textile products, at the cost of a disastrous ecological footprint and a waste of polluting raw materials during manufacture. So at Elia, we prefer to produce exactly what we need, with natural, high-quality raw materials. Our pricing policy is to offer you the best quality at the fairest price. We have chosen to produce everything in France to ensure traceability and maximum comfort of our panties, without compromise. 

As part of our referral and loyalty program, however, you can quickly benefit from advantages that enable you to acquire our beautiful lingerie at a more attractive price.

Is a pair of underpants from periods a saving?

Absolutely! If you use disposable sanitary protection, that's just as much money and waste going into the garbage can every cycle. In the long term, periods panties are more economical. But beyond the cost savings you make with
menstrual underwear, using periods underwear is above all a commitment to the planet (zero waste, fewer pollutants...) and to your body
(100% organic cotton, no risk of toxic shock syndrome...).

Take the test and find out how much you could save with our savings calculator.
