Comfortable, well-fitting undies.

The media could not be loaded. Hard to say I really like or dislike these. Give it a solid four because they are first comfortable and the colors are very bright.

First I took several sets of pictures with amazonbasics underwear and Victoria's Secret up against one of these. You can see how big it is. The bright colored is from this set, the blue and white striped is a pair of Amazon Basics extra large and the black and white are a pair of Victoria's Secret large which is what I normally would get. You can see the massive size difference. I also took a picture with the dark purple up against the fuchsia, the dark purple I had put on over a pair of tight leggings and then pulled off. You can see the size difference and then I washed those and it did not return back to the smaller size. So I did Stretch them, but not excessively. It was no more stretch than you would normally do putting on and pulling off of here except mine was over leggings.

Colors did not run at first. I had washed these in cold water hand wash in the sink individually when I first got them. No issues at all. Then I ran them through the washing machine in warm water and halfway through the agitation cycle I checked in the water seemed okay. I then realized that upon the third wash that color magically was starting to run. This was extremely evidence on the bright purple fuchsia magenta colors. I wouldn't wash these normally in with whites so I honestly don't think it would be that big of a deal if you wash these with your towels or your jeans or darks. No color transferred onto my skin but still that is a concern. Since these are not cotton they are not breathable. Do you get super sweaty while sitting around wearing them, no. If you wear them under jeans though in the summer you can definitely tell there's a difference between these and cotton or athletic underwear. They are not the same material and I stress this, as athletic wear. There is no water wicking and I do believe that in circumstances running errands under non breathable shorts, dresses or pants you will get a little bit sweaty.

Because they are stretchy they are very comfortable, but I wouldn't call these so much underwear material as I would spankies (which if you're not familiar or something that cheerleaders or some sports teams used to go over underwear). They're more like a higher cut short then underwear. I honestly think I might have had a bathing suit that was this material before. Again not spandex or really bathing suit material, but I could see these being worn to a beach and nobody would know as long as you just walked around or sunbathed outside the water.

They run very big. I read reviews and went back and forth and decided since I wear a large in Victoria's Secret and put them in the dryer, I would just get the L. That was a mistake. I feel like the large would fit anybody from a size 10 to a size 20. That's not an exaggeration because there is a ton of stretch. I am on the smaller side of that Spectrum so I could have gotten a medium and even with constant where and stretching I think that would have been fine.

They do not shrink in the dryer. I typically would use cold air fluff or hang dry my delicates, but I tested a couple of pairs on first arrival just to see and there was no shrinking. Really there is some shapewear out there that's on the cheaper side that feels like this material. It's not nylon material and it's not spandex or spanx material, but if you bought a couple sizes smaller than you normally would where I bet you you could get away with these for some kind of tightening effect.

There's not really a crotch area , so what other people have said about getting any kind of panty liner to stick I don't think you could. The materials just not going to allow it and it's going to end up bunching off and sticking to itself. These are on the thicker side and almost feel like it's two layers if that makes any sense.

Overall I'm going to keep them, but I won't really wear them under anything tight because it will just look like I'm wearing giant underwear. I think I will more wear these around the house has pajama boy shorts with a tank top.

Soft and stretchy

I absolutely love these underwear!! They are the most comfortable I've ever worn in my life! They don't move, or bunch up and zero underwear lines!! I'll never buy a different kind again.

I'm always suspicious of clothing on Amazon, you never can tell what you'll get, but I gave these a chance and I'm glad I did! The quality is great, they're comfortable, and I found them to be true to size, though your mileage may vary. I have a fairly average body type with curvy hips, so take that into consideration.
