I'll start with saying these are super comfortable. They're soft and have remained that way through a few washes. I buy a large in most other underwear/shorts and these also fit according to size. I would compare the feel to a new pair of ExOfficio quick dry underwear. They're nearly half the price though.

I do however have an issue with the waist band. It seems to have already lost a little of its integrity from those few washes. I tend to wash my underwear with my workout gear so it's not being subject to high heat in the dryer. I worry that over time, the waist will be a bit too stretched. They're still holding up but they do have the look of an older pair of underwear just by looking at the elastic; they look kinda wavy when held loosely. It's hard to explain. A guy just knows by looking at his boxers. Time will tell how they hold up.

Some other reviewers also mentioned them riding up. I've noticed this on a few occasions but mostly with tighter jeans. It's really not that bad. There are definitely much worse underwear that ride up.

I like to leave products that I'm on the fence with at 4 stars. If the waist holds up, I'll leave it at 4. If the elasticity gets worse, I'll update.
