No longer has 100% cotton crotch
Reviewed in the United States on March 9, 2015
Have worn these for many years. They have been durable. I like the seam in the back as this makes for a custom-like fit. Used to hang to dry, but after having an infection now dry them on low. This may have reduced the longevity but they do seem to hold up even with the dryer.Really like the wide waistband of elastic lace as it prevents the panty-line and gives a smooth appearance. At 5' 6" and 130 lbs the size 6 fits well.The leg elastic seems a little tight but will probaby loosen some.My only complaint is the 100% cotton crotch is no more. Would not have ordered so many if I had known. The listing states clearly 100% cotton crotch. This needs to be corrected as the fabric used is the same cotton-spandex as the rest of the panty. DIsappointed that even Wacoal is taking shortcuts in quality these days. Did you think we wouldn't notice? The all cotton crotch is a very important feature to many women. Many doctors recommend it to their patients for health reasons.
Nice, but shows VPL

I'm a curvy size 14, size 8 fit me well. These are nicely made, but the leg elastic is too thick & gave me panty lines at the base of my rear end. I feel like that is a little less obvious now that I have worn/ stretched them, but if the elastic were thinner - these would be perfect. I had no idea finding cotton underwear with no VPL was so difficult.
Not for me.

I usually love Wacoal, especially their bras, but unfortunately these panties were not my favorite. There is a back seam that to me, feels very uncomfortable. I know that it is good for support but I prefer the seams to be on the side. This underwear also gives me visible panty lines. I prefer Warner's cotton hi-cut briefs, although they are not available on Amazon.
Great quality, run a little large
Reviewed in the United States on October 14, 2017
I like the style of these panties a lot and they seem like nice quality, but they do run a little large, particularly in the waist. They aren't so big that I can't wear them, but one size lower than usually would have probably fit better. I always wear a 7 and these are definitely the loosest underwear I own. I would have exchanged them but I didn't notice until I had already washed and wore them once. Other than that, they are really nice. They have worn well over the several months I've had them- no issues with stretching out or elastic fraying and no issues with them riding up. I will definitely repurchase in the future in a smaller size.
Loved so much I just ordered more

Love these! Wear a size 6 in them and fit perfect (I wear clothes size 8/10). No panty lines. Comfortable. Have worn very frequently for a year and have held up well except a little with the lace but that doesn't affect wearing them. I have put them in the washer and dryer despite tag saying to handwash (maybe that is why the lace had some issues. Oh well!). Highly recommend--Just ordered some more myself so I have plenty on hand.
Feeling secure wqith the light control and soft cotton.

These panties act as a light control with the quality stretch cotton fabric. I know the back seam is good for support but I don't like the feel of the seam next to my skin. if there's a way to keep the support and eliminate that feeling, that would be great. I wash them in cold water and line dry them with travel clothespins, and they dry quickly. They'll be good for travel for that reason. If they last, the price will be well worth it.
Worth the money

Good quality, fits well, very comfortable. I took one star off because the care instructions say to hand wash in warm water. Well, that's not going to happen! But I think it wouuld be fine in a front-loading machine or in a lingerie bag in a top loader. But I like to wash underwear on the steam setting, which would probably wreck these underpants because of the Lycra content.
Nice pair of undies!
Reviewed in the United States on August 4, 2016
These are great! In fact, they've become my favorite pair of undies.I dunno why they describe these as "suede" cotton. They're a nice medium weight cotton, but there's nothing sueded feeling about them.They fit high on the waiste and snug around the legs. There is no uncomfortable binding at the waist because of the lace.Overall, these are a great solid pair of plain old fashioned undies.

These are great panties, my only issue is they very tall. So the lace top can be seen above your waistline.
