I have no idea why companies cannot keep to industry standards.  When you order something that says xl, then you expect the product to fit as expected, no matter the brand.  I ordered xl, which would have and should have been a little loose, but these are tighter than the briefs I bought these to replace.  Also for the price you pay for these I would have expected a heavier material to be used.  This is my first and last order for this brand, not just this product.

For a basic brief these seem to be good, thus why I was generous and gave these 3 stars. For a premium brief I expected better.
