Product Information

Full details

Vivactive Absorbent Incontinence Cotton Trunks are designed for adult males experiencing light leaks who need discreet and comfortable protection. The key benefit is their indistinguishable appearance from regular underwear, offering confidence and superior absorbency compared to disposable pads. A potential caveat is that they are most effective for light leaks and may not be sufficient for heavier incontinence. These trunks feature a lab-tested absorbent zone within a plush, cotton blend material, making them a stylish, durable, and cost-effective alternative to disposable options.

FAQs

Are these trunks suitable for heavy incontinence?

These trunks are designed for light leaks, drips, and dribbles. For moderate to heavy incontinence, they may not provide sufficient protection.

How often should I wash these trunks?

It is recommended to wash the trunks after each use to maintain hygiene and optimal performance.

Can I use bleach or fabric softener when washing?

No, avoid using bleach or fabric softener. These products can damage the absorbent material and reduce the effectiveness and lifespan of the trunks.

How do they compare in price to disposable pads?

While the initial purchase price may be higher than disposable pads, Vivactive trunks are significantly more cost-effective over time due to their reusability. They are also noted as being almost 40% cheaper than some other washable incontinence pants on the market.

What material are the trunks made from?

They are made from a plush, cotton blend material combined with a lab-tested absorbent zone.

What sizes and colors are available?

Currently, they are available in Black and Medium size.

How long do these washable trunks typically last?

With proper care and regular washing according to instructions, these durable trunks are designed to last for a considerable period, offering long-term value compared to disposable products.

Troubleshooting

Trunks do not feel absorbent

Ensure the absorbent zone is facing the correct direction (typically towards the body). Check if fabric softener or bleach was used during washing, as this can impede absorbency. Wash again with mild detergent and no additives.

Discomfort or irritation

Ensure the correct size is being worn. If irritation persists, try a different laundry detergent or ensure the trunks are thoroughly rinsed after washing. Air drying may also help.

Trunks are not drying properly

Reduce the heat setting on your dryer or opt for air drying. Ensure the absorbent layer is not overly saturated before placing in the dryer. Consider a second, shorter drying cycle if needed.

Loss of shape after washing

Avoid high heat drying and excessive agitation during washing. Follow the care instructions carefully, using cool water and a gentle cycle. Air drying is often best for preserving shape.
