Extremely comfortable
Color: 02-multicolour (4-pack), Size: X-Large
These are by far the softest and most comfortable underwear I have ever owned. The leg portion absolutely does roll up as so many others have mentioned, however, I did not find that to be uncomfortable at all just annoying that they don’t stay in place. I bought these specific underwear to see if it would help alleviate HS symptoms at all. They have definitely helped with wicking moisture away from the skin. More time will tell if it’s truly helpful for HS. For now, I will recommend these. They are thin, breathable, butter soft, wick moisture comfortable and I would buy again…maybe in a different style next time. I have washed them several times and they seem to be holding up rather well so that is also of supreme importance given the cost of the item. Again, I would recommend this item and plan on purchasing more in a different style very soon.

Eaten by my Thighs
Color: 04-multicolour (4-pack), Size: X-Large
I wanted to love them. Sadly they have let me down. Pros: natural breathable fabric , super soft and comfortable, cotton panty gussets for feminine health and panty liners will stick!! Yay:). And the colors! They are great! But here’s the Con. And it’s the con of all cons. THEY RIDE UP!! Eaten by my thighs. I’m 5’6” and in the general area of 175. I fluctuate depending on how many times I visit the bakery! :) I don’t have a thigh gap but it is not a super tight thigh squeeze. I seldom have thigh climb but these do. I tried two different sizes to see if that made a difference. Nope. I was miserable at a recent theme park in these. I was wearing long heavy dresses and it was quite awkward to yank these legs down non stop. They feel amazing and they have all the requirements 1. Soft 2. Comfortable and stretches with you 3. Breathable with nice thin fabric. Not bulky 4. Natural fibers 5. Great colors If you are a person that is not blessed with Thunder Thighs, please order these. They are great! I wear them at home and to locations that I will not be doing a lot of walking at. I have washed them so many times and they look like new still.

Best Boxer Briefs for Women!
Color: 09-multicolour (4-pack), Size: Large
I rarely give 5⭐️’s but these deserve it! Hands down, the most comfortable material, stitching, waistband, moisture wicking and overall comfort. They sit right beneath my bellybutton, they wash and dry well and they’re sturdy. I have tried 3 styles and these are the best.

Boy have I bought A Lot of Underwear
Size: Medium, Color: Black,navy,melange,london Blue,burgandy
These are my favorite boyshorts so far. The little stripes kill me, they're so cute. I am now an expert on boyshorts. You should know, I always buy the color packs with boyshorts with a make-up that look like static on the tv. Not sure how else to describe that but they tend to be the same across the board and I think they're super cute, personally. The solid colors may be a different story. SO-Here's what I've learned: They're all basically the same, minus the material and how you like them to fit. You want to look at what the exact material content is. Do you like super soft, almost gauzy and you're not concerned with possibly snagging them? Then you'll want to find boyshorts with a high percentage of polyamide. These are not them. These are about 50/50 polyamide and polyester, which is firmer and has less stretch. Not gonna snag them in regualr situations. Still lots of stretch, though. Just more support and more excercisey material feel. But, there is enough polyamide in them to still feel soft. I prefer less plush and more support. There is a dash of spandex in there and that's good to accommodate many bodies and to hold their shape over time. I know some gals are looking for a softer, stretchier, plushy boyshort. They're easy to find. Look at the material listed. Okay, about sizing: These are stretchy. Not SUPER stretchy, like the gauzier underwear, but stretchy, and you'll fit in most of the sizes. The fit will just be different, obviously. I'm a large in regular pants typically. Size 12. Ten in a good month. I'm 48, 5'5 and 165 pounds. I've got a booty, but not super-duper bangin. Just big. Anyways, I've gotten my "true" size (L), sized up (XL) and sized down (M). Sizing up (XL) is too "poochy" feeling and just mildy wads up around where my legs meet my bits. Comfortable, and stay on but saggy feeling to me. The true-to-size, size large, are less "waddy" and fit fine! Loose enough to almost forget they're on. I've sized down to medium, and that's where my preference is. They fit like I have work out shorts on, just very short ones. More support but don't look ridiculous. I don't look like a sausage in them. Size small would be that on me-the sausage shorts. I mean, I'm wearing these around the house in the summer so I don't have to crank my A/C., and for bed. They aren't gonna be seen my many. Either way these are going to roll up (super skinny gals without thigh gap...do boyshorts roll up on you too? Always wondered that) but the smaller size on me seems to roll less, and that roll doesn't bother me. A roll is different from a "wad". Actually I wouldn't even call it a roll, I'd call it a "fold over". Ha ha I hope this helps and you understand my lingo. FYI I have found personally that most of these brands are the same exact thing from China, packaged and branded differently. The material is the big factor. But these are the only ones I've found with little pinstripes. CUUUTE. Good luck out there!

Great product
Size: Medium, Color: Black,navy,melange,london Blue,burgandy
I adore these! They're so comfy. When they first arrived they felt a little snug in the waist and leg holes, but I gently stretched them out before putting on and have had no problems since, even after washing/drying, i just put on delicates cycles. The slight snugness normally wouldn't bother me at all and most of my other undies are tighter, but I had surgery for endometriosis back several months ago so I need/needed something comfortable. I'm used to wearing hip huggers or bikini briefs. I was concerned that boyshorts would ride up or that the legs would roll-which they do roll up slightly, but it's easy enough to adjust when putting on clothing and then I have no issues!-Once I tried these, they've become my favorite underwear. They're very soft and "seamless" and I like the fact they have no elastic. I have pain down my inner thighs that makes seams or elastic leg holes uncomfortable, but these undies are long enough and soft enough to provide coverage/protection in that area when wearing pants or leggings with inner seams, and makes it so much better to deal with. I just ordered another package and I'm excited to have more pairs to replace my old undies with! Really happy with this purchase.
