These were such a RELIEF during a shingles outbreak!
I developed shingles on my abdomen and spent a few days commando because I was in so much pain and couldn’t stand anything against my skin but a nightgown. I had a drs appointment and was agonizing about showing up in a nightgown and bathrobe at the office. Then I I remembered my grandma used to wear boy leg high waisted undies so looked for something similar. These underpants by Fruit of the Loom were inexpensive and seemed to be similar to what I thought might work, so I ordered a four pack. They were very reasonably priced and when they arrived were of very good quality and well made. They were snugger fitting than I had hoped but were very very soft for tender areas on my abdomen. As it was, the snugness was comforting as they stay in place and act as a barrier between the sore rash areas and light clothing. I’ve never experienced the discomfort of nerve pain from wearing clothes andI’m so glad I happened on to these. I’m on the mend now but still wearing these as I’ve developed some neuralgia and these continue to keep me comfortable.

My Search is Over
Several years ago, my favorite Fruit of the Loom briefs were no longer available. I had been happily wearing the microfiber version for 10+ years, so this was a crisis. I polled all of my friends for recommendations (briefs, not thongs, cheeky pants, high cut or bikinis). I spent a ton of money on fancy brands as well as department store brands. The best I could find was ExOfficio and they were not entirely comfortable. I tried Hanes Just my Size, being a big girl, and they were better, but within six months, the elastic at both waist and leg openings was failing. By accident,I stumbled on a new Fruit of the Loom product on Amazon: Fit for Me Nylon Mesh Briefs. They are perfect, fit great, don’t stick to clothes, flexible elastic. I am in heaven. Inexpensive and just what I wanted. Be careful when you order - look for nylon mesh not cotton mesh (unless you prefer cotton). Thank you Fruit if the Loom!

If you haven't switched to boxer briefs, you're missing out :)
I figured I ought to provide a review, something I'm not prone to doing even though I often/always bank my purchases on item reviews, since I just bought me a second set of these underwear because they're just that good!I bought my 1st set of these 2 months ago because I was on the hunt for some new comfortable underwear and omfort was my main criteria. Wasn't aware that I was dealing with some health issues that was causing a fair bit of internal inflammation, just knew that I had had enough of basically everything I had at the time because they were old, ratty looking and even my all-time favorites had begun feeling too... something... not exactly too tight, yet they just weren't very comfortable anymore either and I didn't need that kind of extra stress in my life. But. I'm a barely-makin-it domestic violence survivor.Sure, I'm super proud to have gotten as far as I have in this world (considering that post-separation psychological terrorism and torture continue to thus day, 5 years after I broke free) but, by rights and family-rearing, I should be living in a whole different world right now... which is my way of saying that money is extra, EXTRA tight in my house...and yet, I still have "caviar tastes", ifykwim. Lol. And, frankly, neither I nor anyone else should have to scrimp on comfortable, classy-feeling, fashionable clothing no matter how small our clothing budget may be.I was spurred to check out boxer briefs for women after reading about a few different women's favorite brands in the comments on soneones IG post (that must have been in regards to underwear, but heck if I can remember the details). So, off I went to scout around on Amazon to see what this "boxer briefs" business was about... desperately hoping that the term was not just a rebranding of those "hipsters" things.I am 46yo, 5'10" (potentially closer to 5'11"... not something I care enough about to know for certain, lol) and, clothing size-wise, my whole adult life I have consistently been a 16-18/18-20, top to bottom, with a shape that seems some what apple-ish at the moment but has, in general, always been more hourglass than apple. Also it seems as if I might have rather freakishly high hips, lol... not really, but for reference, when it comes to pants or jeans what generally passes as "tall", usually a 33"-34" inseem, fit like ankle or cigar length pants on me. But evidently I don't just have long legs, no, this momma's body seems to also have one heck of a long, tall pelvis which I did finally measure to figure out for sure but, prior to that, I could tell based on the way that low cut underwear like bikini & hipsters, and any form of low rise pants, barely make it north of my low lying c-section scar location which, for those who can't relate, is basically at the top of my hooha or just at the point where my belly and my hooha meet. And because that point on my body is not even remotely close to my "hip" area such items basically fall right off my body unless they're super stretchy and I deliberately hike them up to my hip area which I put up with in my 20s and 30s, for the sake of fashion I suppose, but which was and is quite ungodly uncomfortable, and... basically... I am so over with "uncomfortable" anything (men included, lol.)In both cases I bought size 11, though, if I'm being honest, I am certain that a 10 would have fit well, too. And who knows, a 10 might have been just as comfortable or even more comfortable than the 11... but, I didn't take bother taking the chance to find out when I ordered my second set because the first set (size 11) made me so unbelievably happy that they literally changed my views about underwear for life.This whole "pants come off after work" thing or the memes about people working from home (due to covid restrictions) and not wearing pants never jived with me prior to having these boxer briefs, but now... omg... these things are super inexpensive and somehow still suit my somewhat "caviar taste" perfectly (have a good handfeel and are just so unbelievably super comfortable), PLUS... they're opaque and they basically fit (and look) like I'm wearing a loungy pair of bike shorts, so... yeah, I've spent some time over the last 2 months actually chillin in my house in my freaking underwear!!!!Life. Changing. :D

Make sure you order the right size
I ordered the wrong size in these unknowingly and they started tearing up on me even though they were a snug fit. I had previously purchased this same underwear from somewhere else in the boxer brief/boyshort panties and they were so comfortable I had to buy some more.I should have bought a size up when I ordered these in November but I didn't and I went ahead and did so recently.This style and brand are the most comfortable panties I can remember buying.I was having issues with some of my older pairs of panties twisting around on me when I was trying to get some rest but this style and brand are so comfy and they stay in place and they are longer like a pair of shorts which I love.If you are purchasing bigger sizes male sure you go by the pant sizes you wear and the corresponding panty sizes and go up a size if you are almost in a bigger size in pants to prevent the panties from coming apart at the seams.I purchased two packs in the wrong size and lost money doing so.

A little smaller than I'd like
I'm hoping it's just because they're new but I find these feel ever so slightly tight in the leg, resulting in panty lines. Hopefully once they stretch a bit, they'll fit better. I like the fabric.

So soft and comfortable
I like this brand but I love this style the best. They are so comfortable. They will shrink if you don't put them on a delicate cycle. They fit me perfectly after they shrunk. I am a size 9 in underwear. Amazon suggested the 2xl. I think they shrunk to a 1xl, which is perfect for me.
