As expected but fabric looks thinner than purchases made several years ago.

Why aren't these available in the Salisbury store?

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

Yes, I recommend this

I bought these online as they are the style that has fitted me best for years. The ones offered in the store, but still referred to as briefs are completely different and are an uncomfortable style. I showed the pack to the sales assistant but he had no idea why two different types are offered and the ones j wanted are not available in the Salisbury store. Why not?

Soft and really comfortable

Item is really good, only downside is the material over the elastic waist band tears quite quickly

Good fit and reasonable quality fabric. Hopefully the elastic and casing will last longer than previous similar purchase.

Inconsistent sizing - again!

Originally posted on marksandspencer.com (UK)

No, I don't recommend this

My husband has worn M&S size small slips for over 30 years and about 3/4 years ago they became too big, even though he is the same size he has always been! The first time I sent them back and complained. After a year or so I tried ordering them again and they were exactly right again. I have just ordered and am now returning again as they are again too big. I have had similar problems myself - and tbh - not only with M&S. Sizing generally seems badly inconsistent!

Quality slipping

Comfortable, favoured shape, but they don't seem to be as good quality as would previously be expected from M&S.

Good quality and fit but not as good as the ones M&S used to stock '21185304 5 PART SET'.

Very good quality - as always from M&S. Long lasting, and keep their shape after repeated washses
