Anyone tried the shreddies fart absorbing pants?

I’m thinking of buying some of these for my boyfriend for Christmas (more of a present to myself than him). I hate when he farts in bed, and it seems to be only smelling worse as he’s getting older.

Only thing is they are really expensive, so I don’t want to waste my money if they don’t work, if anyone knows any cheaper alternatives I’m all ears?

So anyone tried them? Do they work? And how long do they last? Do they only work for so many washes or will they last a long time?

I thought I'd seen it all! Plus I thought it was something to do with shredded wheat 😂

Sorry never heard or tested them. But thanks for giving me a laugh.

This is hilarious, got wear they underwear on plane as Will have issues getting through security. Instead stick this banana shape object up your bum instead!

Like that they do gift boxes too! Imagine your other half giving you a pair off these be like getting a moustache razor, anti ageing cream!

Also @justcantgetenough I didn’t realise they couldn’t be worn on planes, why is this? The link isn’t working for me …

Get a Cork for your bf's arse.
If that doesn't work, get a new bf 🤣

Looked at the site... the pants can't be scanned through at security, so will lead to problems. So they sell a banana shaped thing to stick between your buttocks for air travel.

Yes, really.

Jampage · 28/10/2022 08:28

Ffs, get him to sort his diet out & the problem will go away.

JanglyBeads · 28/10/2022 08:30

Wow

Omg just seen this wtf 😳 are people wearing these on planes 😮

… And I think it’s a problem he has regardless of diet, I suspect he has irritable bowel or something

Had to resurface this for those that missed it. You can’t wear the pants at airport due to scanning issues. Instead stick this banana shaped object up your bum which you can easily explain to check in staff! Comes with handy instructions on how to use. See pics!

Well I can safely say I was not aware this product existed!

I only came on here to say it is Oatibix rather than Shreddies which cause the problem, in my experience.

Oh my giddy aunt! Can just imagine the person behind you in the security queue casually glancing at your tray and going WTF 😳

If you do buy, please use this gift box! But he may have something different in mind!

What would be more embarrassing explaining what it is or just say it’s a vibrator!

OMFG, you put it in the scanning tray. So you stick it up your arse, the take it out at the airport, pop it i the test for the unsuspecting security staff to inspect then “simply” pop it back in.

Thats it, I’ve officially seen and heard it all.

Try asking him to take charcoal tablets instead

blobby10 · 28/10/2022 13:48

I bought some for my son a few years ago as a joke gift - he had some digestive disturbances at the time and was often a bit flatulent! He said they did dissipate the smell somewhat. I don't think he wore them on a plane 😁

LondonQueen · 28/10/2022 13:48

Ffs I've seen it all now! Flatulence is often a case of poor diet so if he's eating shit he'll l smell like shit!

Soubriquet · 28/10/2022 13:51

Why did I just picture shredded wheat biscuits knitted into pants…?

and the banana?!

Come on now, behave. You don't stick the banana "up your bum", you place it in your bum crack!

EmilyGilmoresSass · 28/10/2022 13:56

OP, please tell me this is a rather expensive joke present and not an actual serious one... though your OP gives me the impression it's not for a joke...

DomingoinLittleOakley · 28/10/2022 14:00

I bought some of these for my brother a couple of years ago as a joke and his girlfriend reported that they were surprisingly effective.

It does say only wash with soda crystals though, and I doubt he's bothered with that, so I don't know how long they'd last being washed 'normally'.
