Prefect fit, good material, durable. Perfect if you use incontinence guards.
Best fitting briefs I've ever bought. Looking at the other reviews I was tempted to buy a size larger than my normal size, but (in my case) these are absolutely true to size. In fact I was worried (before washing them and trying them out) that they would be too large, but the fit perfectly. The quality is way better than I expected. The material seems and feels durable. They even fit better than my calvin kleins. If you're iffy about the price keep in mind these come seven to a pack (at least with large). Compared with other brands that are usually six or less. Will be buying more in the future. I used to be a boxer-briefs wearer until a car accident a year ago lead me to require incontinence guards; I've noticed with other briefs inserting and removing the guard seemed to wear out the brief prematurely, but these do not seem to have that issue. And they keep the guard in place perfectly (which I've struggled with with other briefs and boxer briefs).

Outstanding Quality. Great Fit and Support. I Explain the Size Chart.
Updated review: I still think very highly of these briefs. Some further insights: Amazon sent the wrong size. I ordered Large. A prominent label on the package said Large. But the small print on the package and the product's tagless label say Medium. The briefs shrank very slightly after washing - maybe 0.5 inch (1.3 cm). That made them a bit tight on my 38 inch waist. I looked at the garment and package more closely and realized they are size Medium. So I returned them - yes - you can return them. Please wash them first! I am now evaluating the Large and XL to see which fits me best. These briefs are really well designed. They are the widest I've found in the crotch and they have plenty of room to provide comfortable support in the crotch. SIZE CHART EXPLAINER: It is telling you the unstretched waist size of the garment. For Extra Large it says 34". If you lay the garment flat on a table and measure the width of the garment it is 17". Double that to get the total width of the garment - 34 inches. The fabric stretches! So XL will fit a person with a 38" waist with a small amount of fabric stretching. I find this gives very comfortable fit and very good support in the crotch. If you prefer more stretch to give a tighter / snugger fit AND SUPPORT then consider the Large (31" in the Size Chart). The Medium (28" in Size Chart) will also fit a 38" waist but a bit too tightly at least for my preference. I highly recommend these briefs. If this review is helpful please give it a vote to let me know. Original review without edits: These are excellent briefs. The fact they are reasonably priced is just a great added plus. Completely ignore the Size Chart and order your regular size. I have a 38 inch waist. According to the size chart I would need a XXXL that does not exist. I ordered my normal size Large. It fits well. The fabric stretches some when putting it on and the fit is comfortably snug. The garment width at the narrowest point in the crotch is slightly more than 5 inches, which is a lot more than other brands I tried. This give a very comfortable "pouch" and great support. I suppose IF it shrinks a lot with wearing it might become too tight; if that happens I will update this review. I have heard from others that if one needs to wear an incontinence pad it works very well with these briefs. Not surprising. The fabric is soft and comfortable. The brief sits at the natural waist. I suppose if you prefer a looser fit or less support then order one size larger than you typically need. Very highly recommended.

A nice fit on my torso; perhaps a bit small
All I really wanted was some white briefs. (I use bleach when washing.) These were the best -- almost only -- option. I wasn't impressed with the Hanes I bought a few years ago. They tended to stretch out around the legs, more like boxers, if you see what I mean. I am hoping these Essentials will hold their shape, but that review is months off. For the present, they are a snug fit. I'm 6'4", 195, and a Large is a bit tight around my waist. Ideally, I'd take a 39" waist, so I'm on the upper end of the Large Size Chart (38.5"). Not sure if an XL would have the same overall fit, which here I prefer. These are not high rise, nor what I feared might be low rise. The top of the elastic waist band sits 3" below my navel, about where I want it. So, height-wise, I am pleased. I'm not crazy about the black waist band stripes, but it's not a big deal. Probably that will bleach out anyway. And the price is nowadays reasonable, $20 / 7. More info later, if warranted. For now, 4 stars, and I'd buy them again. XL maybe.

Not bad.
Wasn’t expecting to like these, but I did. I was a little skeptical when I first put them on but they fit well, kept shape, felt light and kept support through my shift. I have to move around quite a bit at work and at first I thought these might be too low rise or too tight and I’m happy to say I was surprised at how well they wear.

It's what I've been missing for years
As the headline says, sometimes you don't really know what you've been missing until you try something better. I needed new underwear, and my wife suggested I check out the Essentials brand. I was reading reviews, and someone mentioned something about other briefs being made "for little boys." I believe they said that these had a wider band of material between the leg openings at the bottom - I didn't really understand what that meant, but most of the reviews were good, so I decided to give them a try. A lot of people were saying to go up a size, but I found that to not be true for me - maybe it mostly works for larger guys. The chart says a Large is good for a 31" waist. I usually wear jeans with a 32-33" waste and the XL were way too big. We sent them back and got Large, and they were a perfect fit. Getting back to the "little boys" comment - yes, these briefs have a larger piece of material between the leg openings at the bottom from other brands I've purchased my ENTIRE life. I never realized that was a "problem" until I tried on a pair with a larger patch of material (these). Like I said, I never knew what I was missing. At first, it felt kinda odd (because it was a different fit from the previous 40-something years) but after a very short while, I began to appreciate that extra bit of material - I can't really explain it - just know that it feels better. As someone else has mentioned recently, after I'd had these briefs for probably 5-6 months, the "ink" that is the tag started to peel - they became unwearable at that time - but I just flipped them inside out, and problem solved. My wife thought that was a bit odd, but honestly, no one else sees them, and they fit & feel exactly the same either way. So, while I'd rather that not happen, even knowing I might have to start wearing them inside out after several months, I would still purchase these again. Very good product - give them a shot! (if you can still get them)

Size guide chart is accurate
I ordered these and am very happy with my purchase. They are of equal quality to the big name brands. I like my underwear on the snug side. My advice is to ignore the others who say they run small and their advice is to order up a size. I found the size chart to be accurate after having ordered and returned the recommended larger size.

Great inexpensive briefs
These are quite good for the money. I wanted multiple pairs of athletic gray, and all the other brands came with mixed colors. So far these fit great, wash beautifully. Very pleased.

a new trick for this old dog
I have loyally bought "Name" brand briefs for many years but they went down the "increasing price, decreasing quality" path. I gave these a try and I like them - good quality ,a comfortable fit, and great value. if they stand the test of time, I would rate them as equal to any, better than most.

Il terzo riacquisto: gli slip definitivi per robustezza e cotone!
Mio marito è molto esigente in fatto di intimo e, dopo aver provato diversi marchi blasonati, è tornato fedelmente a questi slip Amazon Essentials. Siamo ormai al terzo acquisto della confezione multipla, e questo dice tutto sulla nostra soddisfazione: Qualità del Cotone Spesso: A differenza di molti slip moderni che hanno un tessuto quasi trasparente, questi hanno un cotone consistente. Danno una sensazione di robustezza e protezione che si mantiene anche dopo innumerevoli lavaggi intensivi in lavatrice. Non si bucano e non si sfilacciano. Elastico Solido: La fascia in vita è davvero resistente, non si arrotola e non cede col tempo, mantenendo sempre il giusto sostegno senza stringere eccessivamente. Comfort "Tagless": L'assenza dell'etichetta interna è una manna dal cielo per chi ha la pelle sensibile o si irrita facilmente con i bordi fastidiosi. CONSIGLIO SULLA TAGLIA: Fate attenzione perché vestono abbondante. Per un fit perfetto e aderente, consiglio vivamente di acquistare una taglia in meno rispetto a quella che portate abitualmente con altri marchi europei. In sintesi: Un prodotto concreto, senza fronzoli e fatto per durare. Il fatto che le abbiamo comprate già 3 volte è la garanzia che non cambieremo più modello. Rapporto qualità-prezzo imbattibile!

Bonne qualité
C’est un basic pour l’homme : le slip taille haute qui soutient parfaitement sans trop serrer Amazon a produit un slip de bonne qualité. Il semble solide. Le coton est simple mais plutôt agréable. Le slip taille plutôt normalement. Vous pouvez peut être prendre une taille au-dessus si vous êtes habitué au slip taille haute assez ample type Hanes.
