I was looking for high-waist underwear that would flatten my belly area without creating the dreaded "muffin top.” These did exactly that and they are super comfortable throughout the day. My only complaint is that they don’t move with me when I sleep. I sleep on my stomach and want to be able to comfortably raise one knee at a time. I understand this is an extreme movement and I am still looking for underwear that accommodates this angle. Overall these are great undies!
