Comfortable but massive 4 page tag on the inside!
Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2020
I like these.. they are comfortable.Unfortunately all of the calvin Klein underwear comes with this massive tag on the inner front. It's about 4 pages thick and the material is hard. I had to cut mine off but then it itched.
Good underwear, just not "CK" good
Reviewed in the United States on August 11, 2020
The underwear fit as expected and look okay. My biggest issue with these is just that they don't /feel/ like a Calvin Klein product. I've got several pairs of CK thongs that I love for their comfort and quality. The materials of the fabric and the band on this pair aren't anything special. I do recognize that these are CK One and probably aren't meant to be as nice as the regular CK brand, but I still think that you should be getting something elevated at this price point. I feel like you're paying for brand name and not any product quality with these. Don't get me wrong, they're still good underwear, they just don't feel like designer underwear to me - there's nothing setting these apart from any other pair of underwear except what is written on the band.Another issue with these is the tags - there are like three long uncomfortable tags sewn into the seam of these! They are meant to be cut off and removed, and they shouldn't be too itchy or uncomfortable when removed due to a softer tag that is meant to be left in place covering up the "stump" of the removed tags. In general, I just don't like the bulky cheap tags that companies put inside products that are meant to be comfortable, and it seems especially tacky for a pair of underwear from a designer label costing $15/pair.All that being said, I do still think these are decent underwear, and I'm sure that they'll get lots of wear for day-to-day activities. If you are looking to spoil yourself with something luxury, I suggest going all-in on a regular CK pair of underwear.
Lower quality than expected

Iâm taking off a star just because I expected better quality from Calvin Klein, and for this price. The fabric is thin, so I expect it will wear out fast, and the seams have poor quality control, with several loose threads sticking out. This is the kind of quality Iâd expect from some much cheaper brand, sold in a pack of six or so for the cost of one of these.It has many pages of tags sewn into the seam, comprising nearly as much material as the thong itself. Now I can say âMade in Sri Lankaâ in a gazillion different languages. Most of the tags are so long, they have to be cut off so they don't stick out or form a lump, and in fact they have a dotted line with a little picture of scissors to tell you where to cut. However, the top tag, made of a stiff, shiny synthetic fabric, would be hard to cut without leaving an unfinished edge of little bristly threads sticking into your hip.I would call it true-to-size, if that means anything these days. So many brands have inflated their size charts to keep up with the expanding sizes of Americans, which makes sense I suppose, but makes it hard to shop. Iâd call this XS a true, old-fashioned XS, not a modern XS which can be the size of an old-fashioned S or even M.I got the grey, which is yellowish-grey, not the usual cool grey.On the plus side, this is comfortable, and has a truly low-rise fit, so it wonât show over low-rise pants. But overall, if you want something of this quality, you can probably get it cheaper in a different brand.
She says they fit as expected, not much else

A female friend of mine has panties, lots of them. VS, FOL, CK, etc. Cheekie, Thongs, Bikini, etc.After washing this pair of panties, she tried them on, and she said they fit fine, and ask expected. Not rough between the cheeks or anything. Typical CK thong panties, for her. I looked, and yeah, they fit and looked fine. Only other comment she had, was something she has seen before, is that sometimes women who are really size Medium, try to squeeze into a Small. Sometimes, because they were, "Always size Small", and don't think they got any bigger, when, they did. So, she says that is something to keep in mind. It's not always the size shrinking, or getting smaller.Speaking of shrinking, she hangs the panties to dry, and does not use the dryer for them. The elastic lasts longer that way, colors stay more vibrant, less chance for shrinkage, etc. So, she expects the elastic and everything to hold up well, but, if anything changes, I will update this review. As of now, it's just another day, another pair of CK thong panties.
comfortable and looks flattering on with minor fit issues

At first glance, I thought this would be way too small on me. It looked like it would fit really awkward and move around, which I canât stand. I was pleasantly surprised when I tried it on. The material is very breathable and soft. It doesnât move around in the front area or the back. I actually felt like it was covering the parts that I wanted it to. The front is a bit low rise for my taste. The back is perfect. I can barely even feel it. The elastic band is forgiving. The green color is pretty and looks exactly as pictured.For reference, Iâm 5â2 and 125 pounds. I ordered the underwear in a size small. If I could do it over, I would go with a medium.
CK Style but not quite CK Quality

My wife typically loves Calvin Klein tongs, panties, strapless bras and convertible bras. She was excited to try these, and the fit well. She said they are good, but she said they didn't seem to be made with fabric that felt up to her sense of CK quality. The stitching is perfect and the thinner waistband looks good. The fabric is just lighter weight than she expected, and she predicts this will only be good for 30-40 washes before it gets balls and wears thin. She has a high opinion of the CK brand, so these only merit a "Good 4-star" rating in her judgment.
Comfy

I always have to size up in underwear from my normal clothing size of medium to an XL due to having a large God-given booty. The XL fits exactly as expected. The cotton material is soft and comfortable and the "thong" aspect is as comfortable as it can be given that... it's a thong. I was worried that I wouldn't like this thin band but there's not a huge difference in the way that it feels vs the way CK's thick banded underwear feel.
