WUKA launches new Perform Period Shorts

WUKA, leading pioneers in period-proof sportswear unveils their latest innovation – WUKA Perform Period Cycling Shorts (£48.99, wuka.co.uk) – designed to empower women to stay active, comfortable, and confident during their workouts—no matter the time of the month.

A staggering number of women and girls are still being sidelined from sports due to their period:

78% of girls report avoiding sports and physical activities entirely during their period
69% of women say they’ve had to change their exercise routine due to menstrual symptoms
with 88% saying feel their athletic performance suffers across their cycle.

This can be in part due to discomfort from traditional products used – fears they won’t hold up under the pressure, they might leak, show through clothing, or simply not offer the protection needed to move and perform with confidence.

Determined to break this cycle of exclusion, WUKA’s new Perform Period Cycling Shorts (£48.99) fuse high-performance activewear with award-winning leak-proof technology – offering maximum period protection without having to compromise on comfort, performance or style!

Designed to help keep women and girls moving on their period – whether you’re running, riding, stretching or lifting, these sleek shorts are designed to support you every step of the way! The built-in gusset, made with WUKA’s award-winning absorbent technology, will keep you dry and protected from periods, pee, light leaks, and sweat – from warm-up to cooldown

Key Features:

Medium Absorbency: integrated, ultra-absorbent gusset holds up to 15ml (2–3 regular tampons or 4 pads)
