I've been using these undies for a couple years now and hope they never stop making them. I love the comfort, how they dont' bind, how they are gentle on "less than perfect" figures. I lost 115 pounds, and have lots of loose skin and an "apron" or "panni", if'n ya know what I mean. I hate wearng uncomfy, binding underwear/shapewear, but these are so falttering. It's not like they make you look skinny, but they have enough "hold" without the cutting waist-thing, that if you buy the right size, you get NO muffin top and a very discreet amount of "lower belly hold-in".

I have gotten them in mocha and black to go with my bras, which are almost all black and latte/capuccino/mocha type colors. I wash them in the gentle cycle and air-dry to maintain the elasticity a while.

I buy them in a couple sizes. My "right" size for looser use, for exercising (I do Pilates, and I can't have binding undies". I buy ONE size down fore more control. These stretch enough that two sizes work well for all my uses.

If only they made one that goes to mid-thigh to wear with clingy dresses, that would be lovely.

Great undies for those of us who want comfort and a little gentle care for our body imperfections/excess skin/muffin top-prone middles.

My only criticisms are echoed by another reviewer:
1. I hate the fricken glued stickers. Such a pain to remove 2/3rd of the time (sometimes, they come right off; most times, it's a chore.)

2. The crotch lining is not sewed down in the front part. I have no idea why the design is that way (maybe to minimize friction?), but it's weird and after repeated washings, it tends to lift up a bit.

The downsides don't keep me from rebuying them, mind you. My fave, fave panties. BUT...if they could get rid of that annoying superglue sticker and reconsider the crotch, it might just be utterly perfect.
