Depend Shields Incontinence Pads for Men, Light Absorbency, 90 Count (Packaging May Vary)

These are great! Very thin (hence, discrete) and they’re only 20 cents apiece! My wife recently started using them, too!!

These fall right in between a light days pad and a Tena. They stay in place if you put them in correctly, but the glue is really strong. I’ve learned to place them on the garment before putting it on. Works great for long runs in racing shorts, or jockey shorts. Good for everyday use, but on a long bike ride I still need a Tena. Absorbs well. When I dispose of one at night, I can’t usually see that I’ve leaked, but it’s certainly heavier. Note: I’m a 70 yo male with a prostatectomy about 20 yeas ago. I don’t leak a lot except when getting up after sitting for a long time, biking, or drinking. And, the occasional sneeze. But, Everybody is different.

These pads protect my underwear just enough. Each individual wrapped shield remains protected until unwrapped. The unwrapping exposes the sticky bands. I've encountered only two minor issues. At times the wide end is folded tightly in the package causing a crease that won't relax. So, it's difficult to get the shield to lay flat. The adhesive at times sticks tight enough to your underwear to cause the adhesive to pull loose from the shield when removing. This has only happened a few times. Pulling it slowly when removing helps.

Great product. Very prompt shipping

I have been using Tena for years and never had a problem. I switched to these Depends because for a while Tena was not available for some reason. I started getting irritation in a sensitive area so I decided to return this product but could not because after 30 days Amazon ( and I found out Depends) will not take the product back or give me a refund. The case I have I haven't even used yet. I just ordered TENA. If you have never used this style pad from Depends, I suggest order a small quantity and make sure you don't develop irritation/rash like I did.

These pads are very discreet and have an adhesive so it sticks to your underwear but not skin. I'm 57 and never thought I would need these but they work very good. Small enough to fit in your bag or briefcase. They also come in a plain box so if your nervous about someone seeing them don't be. I am really satisfied with these and would recommend.

I bought this Depends brand product because I thought it would be better than the CVS-in-house brand equivalent. That was not the case. The first photo below shows the aftermath of trying to open the Depends brand "Shield." For some dumb reason Depends uses adhesive to attach/connect the outer packing material to the peel off portion of the pad inside. You have to tear and separate the pad from the packaging, and you end up with thin plastic everywhere, including sticking to your hands because of static electricity somehow. Also, the Depends Shield has a narrower adhesive area to stick to your jockey style underwear. The outer peripheral "wings have no adhesive, so they can fold inward on themselves, thus decreasing the surface area available to absorb urine. Please note the second and third photos of the CVS-brand Shield. The Shield comes in a slightly loose package/envelope with a pre-cut overlapping opening. You only have to spread the two piece opening of the packaging to easily reveal and remove the Shield, and...the Shield is NOT stuck to the packaging material like the Depends brand. There is no need to tear it away from the envelope packaging with the CVS brand. And...the adhesive that sticks to your jockey style undershorts is wider with the VCS brand, so you don't have the Shield folding onto itself, decreasing the exposed surface that can absorb urine. There is absolutely no equal comparison..."supposedly" the same product and function, but vastly different in packaging, ease of handling, and adhesive surface to keep it in place. The CVS in-house brand puts the Depends Shield to shame.

As most older men my husband leaks occasionally. He likes the comfort, fit and absorbency of theses without bulk
