I have bought Hanes for years. Lately, they have not been sized as stated. They are junk. I tried a size larger. They were smaller than the smaller size. I acually thought if I ordered the plus size, it was sure to work. The plus size is longer, which I didn't need, but the waistband was smaller. I am forever through with Hanes. Hanes has switched me to Fruit of the Loom. Hanes used to be the best. P.S. I could buy 2 packages of Hanes in identical packages and get different sizes lately.
