Gifts for her ~ STRIDE Everyday panties {giveaway}

It's Day 12 of my Holiday Gift Guide!
Today it's all about the ladies.

Wendy Spencer is the passion behind the brand. A busy working mom who also likes to run, ski and socialize with her friends, Wendy is as comfortable running the Boston Marathon (twice) as she is relaxing on the sofa with a cup of tea and a magazine on a Sunday afternoon. Her mantra? Find the time to find your passion. As a result, she's always on the lookout for ways to make life less complicated.

While training during and after her pregnancy Wendy was surprised, like many women, to realize that she had developed light incontinence. She was even more surprised to discover that there really weren't any discreet, comfortable or stylish solutions to cope with light leaks. This was extraordinary given that roughly 1 in 4 women suffer from light incontinence -- small urinary leaks when one coughs, laughs or jumps.

It's embarrassing, and it is a tad shocking when it happens to you. I am talking about incontinence. A lot of ladies experience it while pregnant or after childbirth, and I can still remember the first time it happened to me. I have to share, that it also happens to people who suffer with back injuries. Being a person with a back injury, I know. Luckily, for me, it is occasional, but, I am aware that it has the possibility of becoming a full-blown problem.


Until then, I am incredibly thankful to Wendy Spencer and her desire to create a product to help with light incontinence. STRIDE Everyday panties are functional, yet very stylish, not to mention affordable, and comfortable. Yes, they do cost more than a package of underwear at the local discount store, but, you must consider that these are specialty panties. I know, personally (in the past) I have spent $20+ on fancy panties. The magic behind STRIDE Everyday panties is something called OQUOS technology. OQUOS, patented fabric technology is revolutionary in its ability to wick moisture from the surface, and convert it to a gel that is dry to the touch. It also deodorizes and it stays waterproof.

STRIDE Everyday panties are available in five designs, so no matter your fashion sense or style, if you need to wear Stride panties there is a discrete style just for you. These panties are super cute and you can still feel sexy when wearing them!

For review purposes I choose the Mid Rise Brief. I love the feel of these panties! The are so comfortable, they stay in place and best of all the provide the peace of mind that I was looking for. The OQUOS does what it is intended to do, without the wearer even knowing it. There is no need for wearing uncomfortable panty lines, which shift and bunch and can cause odour. Wearing the STRIDE pantie is a perfectly natural extension of my every day wardrobe.

These panties wash up like a dream. I don't do anything special when it comes to laundering, I just throw them in the washer and dryer as I would anything else. You may be wondering if the gusset of these panties would be awkward and uncomfortable, but, honestly you don't even know anything is different that other panties.

STRIDE Everyday panties is available in a wide range of sizes, XS - XXL! The Mid Rise Brief is cotton with some spandex, helping them to move effortlessly with my body. Therefore, keeping the coverage right where you need it most.

Thank you to STRIDE Everyday panties for making an appearance here on my Holiday Gift Guide. They do make a fabulous gift! Mild incontinence is a very real problem for women and with sobering stats, we come to realize many, many women are suffering with it, so the chances are that someone you know could be living with this problem. I am sharing the following money saving code with my hubby, because I for one would sure love another pair or two this Christmas.
