Frequently Asked Questions
How effective and reliable is the drying technology?
Wildhawks are designed to do 3 things:
- Feel dry on your skin ultra-fast
- Block the moisture showing up on the outside of your pants
- Do both #1 and #2 while still feeling like normal, ultra-comfortable underwear - no bulky, awkward fitting fabrics
They accomplish all 3 of them:
- They dry drips and dribbles in 15-20 seconds – check out the video.
- They never show wet spots, thanks to a breathable waterproof barrier.
- They don’t feel bulky. The cup area of the Wildhawks is only 2mm thick - that’s about as thick as a nickel.
How much moisture can they hold?
Wildhawks are designed to hold drips and dribbles. If you are experiencing heavier leaks, we strongly recommend you check out our other product line, Freewill guard pouch underwear and guards.

Are Wildhawks bulky?
No.
Our underwear is designed to be so comfortable you won't even notice you're wearing them.
The cup area fabrics (the fabrics that absorb the moisture) are about the thickness of a nickel (2mm). You'll find that other incontinence underwear brands are as much as 10mm thick in the absorbent section.
The rest of the fabrics in the underwear are as lightweight and breathable as the best premium underwear brands on the market.
Are they breathable?
Yes.
Because we use technical fabrics that are thin and light, the absorbent section of the underwear is only 2mm thick. That's about the thickness of a nickel and only 1mm thicker than our ultra-comfortable body fabric.
You'll find that other incontinence underwear brands are as much as 10mm thick in the absorbent section.
Where does the moisture go?
Wildhawks wick moisture away from the skin into an absorbent 2nd layer of our TurboDry fabrics. From there, the liquid gradually evaporates.
Will they smell like urine?
All of the absorbent fabrics are treated with HeiQ Fresh technology that blocks odors before they start. The HeiQ fresh technology is environmentally friendly - it contains no harmful biocidal ingredients. (It “eats” smelly molecules rather than killing them.) So even after a full day of leaks, your Wildhawks will smell fresher than you expect.
Will these really be as comfortable as my current underwear brand?
We are underwear fanatics. The whole reason we started Wildhawk was that we couldn’t find incontinence underwear that met our standards for comfort and style.
That’s why Wildhawks are crafted by designers we poached from the best-known ultra-premium underwear brands. And they are manufactured by the best underwear factory in the world.
They have gone through numerous rounds of testing by expert fit models. We are not messing around when it comes to comfort :)
Can I try before I buy?
If you’re not happy with your purchase, you can get a refund on your first pair of Wildhawk absorbent underwear. No questions asked, no need to return them to us.
Why should I choose Wildhawks over other incontinence underwear brands?
If you are experiencing drips and dribbles, the biggest difference is very simple: Wildhawks dry immediately; other incontinence underwear brands do not. It’s because our absorbent fabrics are technologically superior to theirs.
When you put on another brand’s incontinence underwear, you’ll see immediately that they don’t have our level of fanaticism about comfort and fit.
- Wildhawks have luxurious, ultra-soft, stretchy fabrics. Other incontinence brands use the cheapest cloth they can find.
- Wildhawks are designed, manufactured, and tested by experts from the best premium underwear brands. Other incontinence brands are designed by medical device people.
- Wildhawks feel like regular underwear. Other incontinence underwear brands are bulky and stiff.
You will see other incontinence brands claiming impressive absorbency statistics - 150mL, 300mL, etc. If that’s the level of protection we need, then we strongly recommend you check out our companion product, Freewill guard pouch underwear and guards. They hold 600+ mL and unlike other incontinence brands, they also dry virtually instantly.
If you’re trying to figure out what level of absorbency you need, we strongly recommend you take our 30-second product finder quiz, which uses real world examples to help you decide which of our products (if any) is the right fit for you.
