Kevin's review of the new Confitex for Men range
“I have found them most comfortable. Not having a centre front seam allowed me to wear them under my Lycra walking strides. The sheerness of the cloth kept me cool, and I felt very secure even when I did have leakage. They are the bee’s knees when it comes to keeping one dry. I was most impressed. A great product, well worth the cost.”
Tem’s review of the new Confitex for Men range
“I received the new underwear today and they are awesome. They are so good I would like to purchase more. I wore them out walking tonight and I forgot I had them on. I couldn’t do that with the old version as they got too hot. You guys have a cool product. They are fantastic.”
Kal’s story: Embarrassing drips and dribbles
“The reality is that after you hit 50 you realise your body’s not what it was. I don’t have any real health issues and I try to make it to the gym regularly, but things are definitely changing.
“I have to say, no guy ever talks about it. It’s a private thing. There are times during the day, at the gym or maybe at work sitting at my desk, that I notice an involuntary release of urine. It’s not much but you don’t want that happening. It’s a bit embarrassing, but I don’t feel like it’s a medical condition that I need to get help for.
“I was given the Confitex Everyday undies as part of a trial – from a friend of a friend. They wanted normal guys to test them.
“They are just like the trunks that I usually wear – maybe not quite as stylish as, say, Calvin Kleins, but very good quality, soft, light and very comfortable. Being picky you notice that the front has a slightly bigger pouch, but actually I like that you get a bit more support down there, which feels good.
“At the beginning I felt a bit self-conscious wearing them – I mean, who pees in their pants? But I have come to really like them and now I always go for the Confitex when I go to the gym.
“They look a bit techie on the inside and are just a dark grey with no branding – so my wife actually has no idea, which is good because she does our washing. And they can also go in the dryer, so again, she has no idea.
“When my friend’s friend approached me again and asked if I’d trial some more styles for comfort, I naturally said yes. So that gave me a few pairs as a start, and I notice these are now the undies I reach for each morning. I’ve noticed that I feel more psychologically secure when I wear them – that I’m covered against any mishap, it is mentally freeing.
“Leakproof undies are not the sort of thing I would’ve thought about ferreting out and buying for myself – not in a million years – but now I’ve tried them I’m sold. Also, being online, they’re something you can buy privately and no one is ever going to know. So yes, I can absolutely recommend them.”
Confitex for Men Trunks with Everyday Absorbency offer light protection against minor drips and dribbles throughout the day. For many men this occurs when they cough, sneeze, laugh, lift something heavy or exercise.
If you currently don’t use absorbent underwear but you want to safeguard against leaks and odor, or if you use single-use products such as Depend for Men Shields or Tena Men Protective Shields, you may like Confitex for Men Trunks with Everyday Absorbency.
If you have a higher level of leakage and use heavier shields, you may prefer to try our Trunks with Extra Absorbency.
If you have little or no bladder control, we’re sorry our underwear will not meet your needs.
To provide transparency and guidance in a largely unregulated industry characterised by unsubstantiated absorbency claims, we commissioned leading international standards laboratory UL to subject our products to stringent testing. Testing showed that Confitex for Men Trunks with Everyday Absorbency absorb at least 50ml of liquid at a speed of at least 0.52 ml/sec. (In fact, the total absorbency verified by UL was substantially higher than this, but we have chosen to more accurately reflect the volume that can be accommodated without leakage in a real-life situation that allows for gravity, movement and compression.)

To work effectively, it’s important that your underwear fits snugly. We strongly advise that you measure yourself before ordering, rather than just guessing.
Our sizing categories (S, XL etc) are based on the same international standards as Calvin Klein underwear and can be used as a general guide, but actual measurements are more likely to result in the perfect fit.
Many of our new customers like to buy one pair to trial in the privacy of their home, then once they know they’ve got the right size and absorbency they come back to buy multiple pairs.
Measure around your waist, keeping tape parallel with the floor, then consult our chart.

Our leakproof absorbent underwear can be hand or machine washed just like your ordinary underwear – and because they contain our patented leakproof textile instead of the layer of PU plastic used by most other brands, if you don't have the time or inclination to hang them on the washing line you can safely pop them in the tumble dryer instead without impacting their leakproof performance (the plastic layer in other brands tends to shrink and warp in the dryer, leading to leaks). They can also be dried in an airing closet or on an indoor drying rack or heated towel rail. They’ll dry faster if turned inside out, and will take about the same amount of time to dry as a pair of thick sports socks.
Wash and dry before use to activate fibres for full absorbency. Turn inside out to rinse after use, then wash on delicate cycle below 40°C/105°F, or hand wash separately if you prefer. Do not bleach, do not use fabric conditioner, do not dry clean. Dry away from direct sunlight or tumble dry on low heat. For further instructions see our FAQs.
Frequently asked questions
Which level of absorbency do I need?
One man in five lives with unexpected little leaks, often as a result of ageing, injury or health issues such as prostate cancer.
Confitex for Men Trunks with Everyday Absorbency are designed to help men living with light leakage. If you have moderate leakage you may prefer to try our Trunks with Extra Absorbency. Some men like to have a few of each on hand to meet their lifestyle needs, whether at home, exercising, or when they require extra reassurance. If you have little or no bladder control, we’re sorry our underwear will not meet your needs. Please discuss your options with your health professional or carer.
What colors are available?
We currently manufacture Confitex for Men Trunks with Everyday Absorbency in iron grey with a black contrast waistband. Our Confitex for Men Trunks with Extra Absorbency come in black with a grey contrast waistband. This makes it easy to find the level you need in your drawer.
What sizes are available?
We currently manufacture Confitex for Men Trunks in sizes S to 2XL. See our Size Guide for details.
Are they cost-effective?
Designed to be worn again and again, Confitex for Men trunks can be thrown in the washing machine and tumble dryer and have been lab-tested to withstand as many washing and drying cycles as ordinary underwear. They cost about the same as a pair of Calvin Kleins and last just as long!
How long do they take to dry?
Our absorbent underwear can be hand or machine washed just like your ordinary underwear –and because they contain our patented leakproof textile instead of the layer of PU plastic used by most other brands, you can safely pop them in the tumble dryer without impacting their leakproof performance. They can also be dried in an airing closet or on an indoor drying rack. They will take a little longer than ordinary underwear to dry – about the same as a pair of thick cotton sports socks.
Why wouldn’t I use disposable guards or shields instead?
Many men prefer the convenience, comfort and discretion of wearing ordinary fabric underwear with the absorbency built in. They also tell us they’re saving money by not having to buy single-use guards and shields each week, and they prefer the discretion of ordering our underwear online, rather than having to brave the supermarket checkout. It also saves them the inconvenience of having to dispose of used guards and shields in the workplace or public toilets. We know our trunks are life-changing because men tell us so all the time – read some of their stories here. And Confitex for Men trunks are also an environmentally friendly solution to life’s little leaks. You won’t be sending wads of plastic-lined guards and shields to the landfill each week, and when you finally do wear them out, they’ll biodegrade naturally because they contain no plastic. Find out more on our blog.
