Is it just me, or does anyone else hate when even a little bit of their butt isn't covered by underwear? It doesn't seem like to much to ask, especially for underwear meant to be worn during hiking or sports. Going up a size doesn't solve the problem because then the waistband is too loose.

Unfortunately, I have to agree with other reviewers about this redesign. I have worn this underwear for years for everyday and for hiking. I was so bummed about this redesign. The previous version was so great. This new version is off- the elastic is too narrow and the fabric is too thin. I will wear the ones I bought but I will not be purchasing these in the future unless the design is changed. Too bad, they were perfect before they were messed with.

Too big, fits loose. Probably good underwear, I just didn't go through the hassle of exchanging.

After 2 washes and wears, the fabric is already piling and deteriorating. I've use exofficios since 2009 and the quality certainly seems to be not to the standard I was used to. Not so happy about this last purchase.

I have about 25 pairs of these Give and Go bikini briefs, model 1, bought over a period of about 8-10 years. It's all I wear. I add new colors regularly. I've LOVED how comfortable and durable they are. This new model 2.0 has thinner top elastic, much thinner leg elastic that either binds or rides up, and the sizing has changed so I wear a size smaller than before (and holding them up together, the old and new ARE the same size).So do note the new sizing which is in fact more true to true sizing. So. . . they're now nothing special whereas before they were the best bikini briefs I've ever worn (and I'm 70 so I've worn a LOT of kinds). Now I have to be looking for a new brand and am sad that I won't be able to wear these forever.

I was excited to see that LL Bean was carrying Ex Officio bikini briefs, since I have been so happy with two of the same style I bought in 2017. However, the current version is a major downgrade. The material is flimsy, the elastic is significantly looser, and the waist-to-crotch length is a full inch-and-a-half longer even though they are supposedly the same size as my old ones. At first I thought it might be a covid supply chain problem, but the tag indicates one of the two I bought was manufactured in 2019. The waistband is somewhat different as well. If I'd purchased these from another source, I'd suspect counterfeits, but I think LL Bean's buyers are more savvy than that, so I'm suspecting Ex Officio changed suppliers. Not a good look for Ex Officio; I won't be buying any more online.

These are not the ExOfficio briefs of the past. They are thin and not worth the money.

The material is thinner, the leg openings are wider and the fit is generally larger than the ones from 2 years (I think it was 2 years) ago. I have washed and dried them to try to get them to shrink, but no real success. If the old ones fit you too tight, then these might be perfect for you. They are too loose on me - size XS. The give and go sport mesh ones, however, are true to size and fit me perfectly.

Fabric too stretchy, bigger than previous pairs, used to be my absolute favorite underwear (the only ones I wore.) There is something different now. They slide down and don't stay put. I am so disappointed! I thought these would be my forever undies. I have probably 25-30 pairs, all different colors, bought every few years over the past 10-15 years. Decided to buy some new ones and they aren't the same.

This company used to make good underwear but they've gone downhill. They are too loose in back and the material is more flimsy than formerly. Won't buy again.

Fabric has changed since the last time I purchased these. It's much thinner and the seem to ride up more. Not great for hiking or running.

I ordered 6 pairs all the same size & style just in different colors. Many fit differently in the batch. I also do not like the change in material. I've worn these panties for many, many years and am disappointed in the change and inconsistencies. I gave 2 stars vs 1 because of the few in the batch that work; this has happened several times... unfortunately I lose $ in the process for those that don't work. Am actively seeking a different company & product.....

I have had past good experience with ex official underwear noth a
T home and abroad (think wash in sink with quick dry) . This is my first time ordering them on line. I opened one package and wore them. They did not clung to my body. The leg holes were not elasticized as my previous purchases over the year. Have you changed the design? Is it possible they were too large for m? Also how do I return the 3 unopened packages.

I ordered some of the GiveN Go 2.0 bikini briefs because I wanted to replace some of my old Give N Go lacy hi rise bikini briefs. Unfortunately they are not the same fit at all. The leg openings are much looser and the pants "ride up". I don't like them at all. Bring back the old version!

The new style of these briefs is nowhere near as good as the old ones. They are cut more skimpily & have such large leg holes that they hang loose. The fabric is much thinner. Loved the older style.

I have a pair that I purchased a couple years ago and love them. I expected these to be the same but they are not. The elastic around the legs feels different and enough different to not be as comfortable.

I absolutely love the new fabric, however the sizing has seriously changed.
The cut is way larger than the ones I have bought for years. The size small
is too big and with the changes in the elastic, I'm having to readjust the
leg holes all day. Ugh. Not what you want for long days on the trail.

Lovely color. Decent fit. Legs ride up in back. Requires special laundering.

This review was submitted as a sweepstakes or contest entry in exchange for an opportunity to win a prize.
This bralette is made out of really lightweight and comfy material, and also looks really nice. It seems like it would be very comfy if it fit me right, but unfortunately it does not. There isn't really enough room for my boobs, however I wear a 30DD normally so it should work better for someone with a smaller chest. This bralette doesn't give enough support for me and it will just end up riding up. I don't think going up a size would have helped me since the band seems like it would probably be too big if I tried that. It's a really nice-feeling and good-looking bralette but it's best for those with smaller breasts.

These panties felt soft. I loved the material, but Iam a size 16. The panties were an XL 16/18. Unfortunately they did not fit. Hopefully they will be offered in bigger sizes in the future, as I would love to try them out.

The stitching around the legs (several pairs) came apart after just a handful of washes.
