Contrast cotton brief - briefs discontinued by Fantasy Lingerie - review by butts

As a whole, the only complaint I have about these is that they didn't come in a smaller size, and the silver stitching in the tag is itchy. They're really a sexy, comfortable and decently priced pair of underwear! I've honestly seen $25 pairs of underwear similar to this that are lower quality, and not as good looking. They're quite stretchy, easily forming to your shape without feeling constrictive. The material is a soft mix of cotton and spandex, they're not thin or cheap feeling at all, nor are they thick and hot like a few pairs I've owned. They seem to be built to last, with durable but soft material and well sewn seams that don't show any signs of weak spots when you stretch them out.

When worn all day, even brand new, I had no issues with discomfort except an easily removable little tag in the back. The band never rolled up or felt tight, the seams never got itchy, and there were no spots that chafed. In the past I've had issues with cheap "form fitting" underwear where the leg holes were a bit tight while the waist fit fine, and the cheap material ends up chafing my thighs a bit. That definitely won't happen with this pair. They fit my partner well, he definitely has a much larger hips and butt than I do, but he says they're not too tight or uncomfortable at all. I should warn that the size chart for Fantasy Lingerie says the M size fits 28 1/2 - 30 1/2in waists (https://www.edenfantasys.com/productcontrols/lingerie-size-charts/), they feel a bit large if you're on the smaller side. After examining the tags, I found out that they are actually 32-34in. They fit perfectly fine on my partner who's about a 30in waist but could easily fit someone a bit larger.

There's "EXCITE" written on the front of the waistband, and a small tag in the back with "EXCITE" on it in silver threading, which does get slightly itchy. Below the "EXCITE" tag is a small white tag with some general information on it:

front:
95% cotton/ 5% spandex
made in china
M (32-34) (This is not the same as what's listed on the fantasy lingerie size chart; keep this in mind when ordering!)

back:
hand wash
cold wash
darks seperately
line dry
do not twist or wring

Even though this is a sturdy pair of underwear, it's best to wash them like delicates to ensure that they'll last. I didn't notice any color bleeding from the black band or orange trim, but do keep dark fabrics and possible bleeding colors away, it will easily stain the light grey cotton. The itchy silver tag is only held on by a few stitches on either side, it's easily removable if it becomes annoying. The other tag isn't noticeable when worn.

This is a really sexy pair of underwear, one of my favorites honestly, but it doesn't come in a size S! On my boyfriend, who has a wider hips than me, they look super hot. They fit his form quite well. On me, they're a little baggy around the butt. Not bad, not enough to not wear them, but they're definitely a better fit on him. After discovering the "real size" of these, it makes sense. If you're a small waisted guy like myself, you might need to look somewhere else for a good pair of fitted briefs, and don't trust Fantasy Lingerie's size charts!

This is still an awesome pair of underwear; it gets regular use by both of us! There is no sign of wear and tear yet, even on the band, which is usually the first place my underwear starts to look worn. They've been washed multiple times and haven't noticeably shrunken at all, so don't be concerned about that. No bleeding or discoloration, no fraying seams, no stretched out band. I have absolutely no complaints about these!
