Several years ago, I came to the conclusion that "FotL" underwear was not as comfy as Hanes. The last time I was at Wal-Mart, I decided to give 'FotL" a chance again, thinking that maybe the design/comfort level had improved. (At Wal-Mart, you can get a "sample size" with three pairs of undies included in pack.) I discovered that they actually got worse! My daughter, a.k.a. "Twiggy", age 8.5, wore these undies once at the least, twice at the most, and the waist became so stretched out that they have no "stay-put" ability; i.e.they are now loose enough in the waist to fit the future teenage version of her. Should have stuck with Hanes.
