Menstruation. Periods. Leaks. We’re comfortable saying the words, and our designers have obsessed how to help address the common problem — bleed-through — that periods can bring. Leak Protection: Period, our new Nike innovation, can help people feel safer, more confident, and better able to focus on the movement they love — including our Nike athletes on the pitch in Australia and New Zealand, who are wearing the innovation integrated into their Nike Pro short.
“Professional footballers play two 45-minute halves without breaks or time-outs, and many told us they can spend several minutes on-pitch concerned that they may experience leakage from their period,” says Jordana Katcher, VP Women’s Global Sport Apparel. “When we showed them this innovation, they told us how grateful they were to have this short to help provide confidence when they can’t leave the pitch.”
