Organic Day Pad Plus

Organic cottonStainless steel

An 11-inch reusable cloth pad in GOTS-certified organic cotton flannel and terry. A winged holder snaps around underwear and takes two removable inserts, and GladRags says it has no plastic or waterproof layer.

Good to know: $24 for one pad or $67 for a 3-pack. GladRags also makes a longer Night Pad Plus ($27–$29.50) and a Cloth Pad Starter Kit Plus ($132–$150) with liners, day pads and a night pad. The snaps are metal in GladRags' photos; take them off before composting a worn-out pad.

Why we picked it

The Day Pad Plus is the longer and wider version of its original day pad. The organic one is GOTS-certified cotton flannel and terry. A holder with snapping wings takes one insert on light days and two on heavy ones, which GladRags says matches a standard maxi pad. There is no plastic or waterproof layer in it. GladRags argues a waterproof backing traps moisture. The pads lean on absorbency alone, so anyone with a heavy flow may want to change them more often. GladRags guarantees them for five years.
