I have tried a bunch of different types of cotton underwear trying to find something that is comfy but not too granny-ish.  This is it!  I usually wear bikinis, but sometimes I want something with a bit more coverage - first, I tried low-rise briefs, but the leg elastic hit right at the widest part of my thighs and created an unpleasant bulge (plus they were pretty granny-like!).  Then I tried the Hanes stretch boy-briefs with lace at the top, thinking the lace would pretty them up.  It was pretty, but the leg stitching didn't stretch, of all ridiculous things, so they were really uncomfotable.  These don't have either problem - the waist and legs have a lot of soft stretch to them, so they really conform and move with you (perfect for yoga), and most important they don't show under even close-fitting clothes.  Cute design and GREAT fit - true to size.
