Elastic?

No, I don't recommend this

The elastic around the leg has next to no elasticity! Have been buying these for years without problem, albeit accepting the trade off for the price means replacing them at reasonably regular intervals. Four packs, washed once, are now in the bin!

Snug for the size and lightweight

Smaller, generally very snug for a XXL and quite lightweight, feels made to a budget but I fell for the five pack for economy.

Great fit, nice price

Yes, I recommend this

I've worn these since the turn of the century when we lived in London. Now, whenever I travel through town I pick up some more. The work for me, fit properly and last a long time. Not much more needs be said. Recommended!

This product hasn't changed in years thank goodness and is a regular buy for me as they do eventually wear out. I blame the washing machine though;)
