NipEaze Value Packs stir up Controversy

Mar 11, 2016

This year, 34-Count Packs of NipEaze have stirred up critics who accuse the company of waging a war on Third-Nipple Patrons.

NipEaze said it has sold the “34-Packs” in the past, which have included (1) 15 Pairs Packet of Regular Size NipEaze plus a Bonus (2 pairs) Trial Pack, in favor of a lower-cost solution for frequent-use customers.

When the new 34-Count Combinations rolled out in January, NipEaze owner Pat Ward said the company “wanted to usher in the New Year with a concise description of quantity in order to show the precise value of the packaging.”

Dr. Mango, a runner and Amazon shopper who was born with a third nipple, took exception.
He posted a review to Amazon that went viral. Mango criticizes NipEaze for causing third-nipple patrons to “have to split up a pair every time.”

Mango encouraged customers to use “Duct Tape” instead of NipEaze in order to combat what he considers ‘cost’. He further said that NipEaze caused him to be “bummed.” In a small survey generated from Amazon.com, it was noted that his review was found to be helpful by only 2 out of 6 Amazon shoppers.

“I was born with a third nipple and am bummed I have to split up a pair every time I run. Anyway, at this cost I’m considering switching back to duct tape,” he wrote.

In response to Mango’s review, NipEaze said in a recent statement that it tries “to create packs that are divisible by 3 as well as 2; the bonus pack was supposed to be a freebie but unfortunately threw the mathematics off a bit.”

Choosing the rights size of NipEAZE for your body type

For Concealment:

Choose the NEW Sport+Fashion Full Size (1.25") if your primary use will be for fashion or to help conceal the nips under clothing.

For Endurance Athletics and Nipple Chafing Prevention:

Place a clean penny on one of your bare nipples. Does it cover most of the areola? If so, choose Size Regular (fits most).

The NipEAZE should not be larger than the outside diameter of the areola unless your primary objective is to help conceal your nipples.

Regular – 3/4” – Fits most (about the size of a US Penny)
Extra – 1” – For larger nipples (slightly larger than a US Quarter)

Endurance Athletes and Runners: Why Measure?

For the adhesive to be most effective against moisture & friction, NipEAZE should fit so that it comes in contact with the areola only; not the skin around it. If your measurement is between two sizes, choose the smaller size.
