My hubby has always worn (and liked) Hanes Comfortsoft Briefs so when his old ones began to look worn I ordered these w/out hesitation. Right out of the box these were paper thin (transparent) and very rough material. He tried one pair on and immediately complained that the seams were "diggin in" and the fabric scratching his skin. The only positive I could find about these briefs was an imprint v/s a tag however, it does absolutely no good to have tagless briefs if they're made of cheap, paper-thin fabric that irritates the most sensitive parts of your body. There is nothing "comforting or soft" about these but I'll try buying them at Target where we bought them last time and didn't have these issues.  I hope this was just a fluke and that this isn't the new norm. It's discouraging that we can no longer buy tried-and-true products that we've bought for years w/out seeing a negative change in the quality and consistency. I am beyond fed up w/ companies who've cheapened their products and the materials used to make them "overseas" for the same price you used to sell the good stuff made in America.
