I've worn these and only these for probably 20 years now, and like them very much. Recently ordered six pair in the ivory (wish they came in a darker skin tone) and I ordered a 6 since some reviewers had said they were tight in the legs. Unfortunately, they're a little large, and now that I've washed them they didn't shrink and I'm finding them very long...which, considering that I have a long torso, isn't good! I'm having a little difficulty keeping them from creeping out from under the top of my summer slacks waist bands, especially with my workout clothes. Next time I would buy a 5.
