I bought these briefs because I don't like high waisted briefs that roll over.  So by the picture I thought I had found what I was looking for.  I got them in the size all my others are in.  Well first, after opening them I thought they sent me the wrong style.  But after looking at the package, they did say Mid Rise.  I compared them to my other brands and these were at least 2 inches wider.  These are just like regular briefs.  And after putting them on, they could easily fit a 40-42 inch waist.  I sure hope they shrink when I wash them. If they made a low-rise, I would probably try them to see if they were actually mid-rise.  They look nothing like the picture they show. Oh well, I will keep looking.
