I loved these underwear. Have been using them for years. Would always wear a Large. Then I ordered a new set and they are smaller and rougher. I sized up to an XL and they were still a bit snug. No give. Then I noticed they started running like stockings. I checked the tags. The old pair is: Body: 93% Nylon, 7% Spandex. Gusset: 61% Nylon, 34% cotton, 5% Spandex. The new pair are: Body: 92% Nylon, 8% Spandex. Gusset: 64% Nylon, 31% Cotton, 5% Spandex

I bought a package of these and liked them. So I bought another package this time colors and they were a size too large. I dropped a size and bought a size smaller. It fit. Then I bought a second package (colors) and it was a size too large. I assume underwear cannot be returned so I didn’t try. I now need a size smaller. Logic says just stay away from the colors. But I have now read many reviews that have convinced that all the sizes are more or less random. Since two of the four previous packages I bought were missized I won’t be buying more even though I like them. How many packages would I have to buy to end up with medium sized underwear!

I have 2 sets now, have had them a year or so and they wash and wear wonderfully. I do NOT have panty lines with these, even in my leggings, so that's why I will stick with them. I like the way the material doesn't age in a way that it looses it's softness. They still few new longer.

I ordered my usual size. Something was off - none of them fit. They kept riding up the middle or they felt extremely restrictive and uncomfortable. The color and fabric seem to be the difference with the discomfort level/issue. Regardless, they are not comfortable. I have "issues" with clothing that will not give me freedom of movement. Based on my height and weight, I wear an XL. The first time, I ordered a XXL (which is the size that I have previously purchased - based on my comfort preference). However, the panty rode up in such an uncomfortable way. I waited for the XXXL to become available thinking that the 5 pounds or so that I gained over the holidays was the problem. That is not the case. What I realized (as did other reviewers), is that the leg opening design has changed. There is no structure. The crotch wants to ride up and everything is just "wrong." Even two sizes up, wearing these panties for two hours at church was torture. I could not wait to get home and take them off.

I first purchased Ellen Tracy briefs 5-6 years ago at Sam's. They were super comfy, flattering, truly seamless, soft and very breathable. Literally my FAVORITE undies of all time. I picked up a package earlier this year and man am I disappointed. While the overall shape and coverage area is very similar, the material is NOT soft, breathable or comfy. If this is a permanent material change I will not be purchasing again.

I am surprised by the negative reviews but I never bought Elen Tracy briefs until these ones two months ago. I really like them. They're like really comfy Spanx briefs! I wear them when I don't feel like wearing Spanx but still need a little tummy control to feel more confident, or even to the gym! They seem to be decent at moisture wicking. I will buy more.

What a shock! I bought these panties maybe 3 years ago . Loved them. I bought them couple weeks ago and what a shock. Number 1: they barely stretch. Number 2: They are too small even though I am same size and purchased same size. So, I had unused pair from previous time I bought it and I compared them. Yes I am right they are 2 inches smaller than my previous buy and yes they used to stretch . Not buying this again.

I always bought these and loved them, but now they changed the material and they are nothing like they were before. Much thicker and not as comfortable as the older version. Will keep checking at the store to see if they go back to the older material. Won't purchase these newer version again.

The sizing and material changed after COVID these were the best on the market but I now have several that I purchased after the resizing and different material change that cannot wear they were so tight in the legs caused rashes such a shame the best quality went to poor quality to save a little and discredited the Ellen Tracy reputation

Be aware that crotch is not cotton and there is a seam at rear of crotch that might show when wearing leggings or tight fit pants. Purchased the black multi pack and very pleased with the fit. They are comfortable, the legs do not bind and stay in place when moving throughout the day. I will purchase the other colors also.
