Underwear shopping is not fun — especially since you can’t try ’em before you buy ’em. There’s no telling whether they’ll ride up or bunch up, turning your day into an uncomfortable one. In this situation, reviews are golden. Amazon shoppers are a savvy crowd, and they’ve found panties with all the right bells and whistles: Cotton Mid-Waist Panties from Ummiss. You can get a five-pack for as low as $15, down from $20.
Soft, breathable and stretchy with a wide waistband, these popular panties are 95% cotton and 5% spandex for all-day comfort.
Why is it a good deal?
These panties go on sale from time to time, but in the winter, the price tends to go up. We don’t expect it to drop lower than this again for quite awhile, so if you need to stock up on some snuggly underthings, the time is now. After all, nearly 60% off is a pretty sweet deal — and at $15 for a five-pack, you’re getting each pair for just $3 a pop.
Why do I need this?
Made with cotton and spandex, these full-coverage panties offer a smooth, comfortable fit and give you support where you need it most. They have an extra-wide waistband that’s soft, stretchy and keeps your tummy contained without being too restrictive. If you’re working with a disgruntled meno belly, shoppers say this could be your secret weapon against Father Time.
If you’re skeptical about that waistband staying put, don’t fret. The waistband is designed to remain in place all day long and tame that “pesky muffin top.” And you don’t have to worry about them riding up, either. If you do a lot of running around at work, some shoppers rely on these undies to get their job done in comfort.
What reviewers say
Amazon shoppers can’t get enough of these undies — and it’s all about the fit.
Pros
“These are perfect for my work attire. No muffin top and no wedgie!” raved one of them.
They blew the mind of another fan, who gushed: “What amazes me is how they don’t roll down during the day, they are unbelievably soft and they are just cute! I don’t know if I will be able to go back to the ‘big name’ undies again.”
“These are the best underwear I have ever had,” shared an uber-impressed reviewer. “I am curvy yet petite, or slim thick as they say. I work out five days a week and am a vet tech, the cotton material is fantastic for sweat. They fit just right above the hips perfectly — these are not the ‘low rise brief’ style that look like granny panties. Light tummy control and look cute on. Woot woot!”
Another wrote: “I work in a warehouse and have to do a lot of bending, squatting and moving around. These underwear do not budge. They’re really comfortable and fit great.”
“These are great for anyone with a tummy pooch from surgery or having children,” shared a grateful customer. “They don’t have a lot of compression but a good amount of support. The only thing that is a con for me is the seam around the leg is a little tight and rigid. I am hoping over time it will become more flexible. The fabric is soft and thicker than what I have bought from local retail stores.”
Cons
Though these undies largely got a lot of love from shoppers, there were some quibbles.
“Perfect everyday underwear that doesn’t roll down,” began one four-star reviewer, who added, “Definitely not seamless, though.”
They came up short for this petite wearer: “I do like these underwear; they are soft, smooth and breathable. The only downside is they feel high-waisted and not mid. I guess they just not made for 5′ 2″.”
