My son has eczema and sensitive skin, and the elastic band (which 99% of boys undies have) was irritating his skin and making his eczema flair up around the waistband area - so I found these! A cotton wrapped waistband - genius!! And voila - no more irritation and hes so much more comfortable. The only minor thing - scratchy tags. But I cut them out, so it was easy fix. So Im back to buy all the colors!! (Which are all so cute!! Not everyone likes to have characters on their skivs..!)
