NOT QUITE WHAT WAS EXPECTED

No, I don't recommend this

There was a label indicating that these were the same as the previously called 'midis'. I think they are not the same. They are much bigger with more fabric. I am underwhelmed.

Perfect

Yes, I recommend this

Ordinary high leg briefs are cut too high for me, these are perfect. Don't be confused by the shorts in the description, they are not shorts

Disappointing style

No, I don't recommend this

I have worn the same style full knickers from Marks for years but the ones I bought recently are not high rise as stated and only come halfway up my backside. Very disappointed

Cotton Lycra (High Rise) Pants

Yes, I recommend this

I have always bought these pants from M&S. These pants are just the right size for a petite 10, I would recommend these for everyday wearing.

Good M&S pants, as expected!

Yes, I recommend this

Excellent quality as ever from M&S. It’s taking a while to figure out the new names for the style/fit, but I muddled through and these pants apparently are the same as the style I’ve always bought before!

Very comfy knickers

Yes, I recommend this

This style was recommended by one of the store assistants as I find the high legs too high now. Appear to fit well and are very comfortable. Hopefully they will wash well too.

Silly name change

Yes, I recommend this

I've been wearing this style of knicker since my twenties and I am now in my seventies. The quality has gone down but is still an adequate piece if comfortable underwear. However why oh why have you changed the name to 'high rise' shorts and dropped the 'midi' description. It took me ages to find them online and without the full title (words in the right order) they were impossible to find. Fortunately I found I'd still got a packet from the last lot I'd bought. I also think you should bring back the lovely lacy version.

High rise shorts

No, I don't recommend this

Material very thin nowadays. Fit a little large. Price ok. They are not shorts but like the old midi pants which is good. Why call them shorts?! Sizing a little smaller these days.

Great everyday underwear

Yes, I recommend this

Great everyday underwear, very comfortable and good quality for a surprisingly good price. Used to be called Midis I think which was a better name as they are nothing like shorts.

Not as thick as before

Yes, I recommend this

I have bought these knickers (M&S cotton lycra) for many years now and agree with other reviewers - the last set didn't last as long as the previous set and these ones seem thinner / lighter again. I'd rather pay a bit more for a heavier cotton. So far, fit well, comfortable and wash well. Only time will tell how well they last.
