I gave this 3 stars because there are other brands at this price point that are better made. For underwear over $40 I expect it to be near perfect.  I sized up one size, but the pouch is a little too small. otherwise the size is as expected.  the fabric is very smooth and comfortable maybe a little thinner that I expected.  They hold there shape well, but could use a little more spandex for fit/compression. Overall a great pair of underwear. if they were $25 a pair I would by 10 of them.  Just not worth current price.
