My husband says these run small for a size large. They are too tight and they ride down in the back. The size chart says that a large fits waist 33-36. He has a 34 inch waist, so sizing is not accurate. They are not a size large compared to American brands like Jockey or Hanes that use the same figures on their size chart. He said he could wear them but they are not his favorite. They washed ok and didn't shrink.
