Have bought Elance Briefs forever, Im 74 years old. However, two years ago I replaced my Elance Briefs, which had gotten too big as I lost over 100 pounds, with Jockey Silks. The waist was way too tight and the legs were way too big and the brief didn't fit well for my body at all. But I kept them. This year they started to have runs. And, as I wanted, not needed, new underwear, I bought 30 pair of the Elance in my smaller size from the weight loss. Boy, am I glad I did. I LOVE the Elance briefs. They last much longer than the Silks, too. The waist fits, the legs fit, the brief fits like it was made for my body, just as before. Should have my head examined for wanting to try something different when I got the Jockey Silks. Cant go wrong with these cotton briefs! I buy just plain white so I can bleach them, not the colored ones. White has none of those dyes that I react to.
