When I first opened the package, I thought the pants were great. They are thick, stretchy, and nice looking. I put them on and they did fit a little loose, but not to the point where I couldn't wear them. That is a different story. When I wore the to work, with every step I took, they started sliding off of me. After fighting with them for a day, I washed them and wore them with a belt another time. Did not help. They basically lost their shape and sagged at the butt, which is very attractive. I'm sure everyone loved seeing my diaper looking bottom.
