Q:Why have you changed your Depend® underwear products?
A:

Men and women are different and have different needs. The Depend® brand recognizes and values these differences, so we're providing better protection by offering customized underwear.

Q:What are the changes?
A:

New Depend® Underwear for Men now have a masculine waistband and leg openings that fit a man's body just like men's underwear,
and New Depend® Underwear for Women now have a feminine waistband and leg openings that fit a woman's body just like women's underwear. Additionally, we have put Depend® absorbent protection where you need it most! This underwear is designed with you in mind so it fits just right and protects you better!

Q:How will my package change?
A:

At-shelf shopping should be simplified with the new colors on the new packages. Vibrant blue and pink color bars on the same green Depend® packages quickly tell you which is for men and which is for women. From there, you simply choose which size and absorbency you desire.

Q:How do I know what size is right for me?
A:

Selecting your package on this website is the easiest, most discreet way to find your package. Simply click on the "Find Your Package" link in the top navigation and answer a few simple questions, and we'll help you print out a wallet-sized ID card to keep with you until new packages hit the shelves in April.

For at-shelf shopping using your waist size is the easiest way to select your underwear size. But if you don't know your waist size, you can use hips or weight as a guideline by checking the sizing chart on the back of the package.

Q:Are Extra and Super Plus absorbency the same as current products?
A:

Yes.

Q:How do I read the new absorbency "dot" scale?
A:

The scale is intended to show different absorbency levels for all Depend® products. The larger the colored dot, the higher the absorbency. For underwear, the third, or middle dot, denotes Extra absorbency and the fourth dot denotes Super Plus absorbency.

Q:When and where can I find the new Depend® Underwear for Women and Men?
A:

Products will be available at most retailers that currently carry Depend® underwear by April 1st, 2009.

Q:Will Depend® Adjustable Underwear, Belted Shields, Fitted Maximum Protection, Guards for Men, and Boost still be available?
A:

Yes, all other Depend® products will still be available.

Q:What if I have other questions about the new products?
