Pink line - from VS

mysweetpeasWil&Wes wrote: I usually buy the "cheekie" underwear at VS, I think that's what they are called. The silky/lace boy short style. But I was looking for just some simple cotton kind to wear to the gym. So DH and I went into VS last weekend and I picked out five pairs from the Pink line. I washed them and wore my first pair today....And I'm so NOT impressed!!! The cotton feels sorta stiff, not soft at all, and they shrunk a ton too much. AND when I put them on, there is a bit of lace up front and my finger went through the lace and it TORE!!! No kidding. First time wearing them. Five pairs for $25, I can't expect too much, but still. Grrrrrrrrrrrr.

Anyone else try them and have this problem? I'm a little afraid to wear any of the other styles I bought now. Not happy, not happy at all...But I already washed them and took the tags off.

I have to tell you, I was pretty weary about them from the start, but DH insisted I get the boy shorts with "Go Mustangs" on the butt!

A&A'smommy replied: I wear that pink brand and LOVE it.. you may have just gotten a pair that wasn't good to start out with... try your others and see if you like them...

mysweetpeasWil&Wes replied:
That's a good point. I shouldn't knock 'em if I haven't tried the others. But man, a hole in the lace in just one wear?!

Maddie&EthansMom replied: That's what I wear and I've never had a problem w/them. I'm sorry, Rae.

Calimama replied: I love them! Sounds like you got a bad batch.

jcc64 replied: I haven't had any problems with them, either. I usually just get the 100% ones- I'm not a fan of lace- too itchy.

Mommy2BAK replied: Thats what I normally wear and I don't think I've ever had a problem with them. Although, I did tear the lace on my stockings from there the day I bought them... that made me sooo mad, so I kinda know how you feel!

Brias3 replied: Hmm, I LOVE the Pink line and have never had an issue. Maybe you got a bad pair?

If you're looking for comfy pairs, have you tried Gap underwear? I typically don't buy it there, but do have a few pairs I'm quite happy with for everyday undies.

A&A'smommy replied:
Yeah that would make me pretty mad!!! I'm sorry I hope your other ones don't do that!!

Hillbilly Housewife replied: Sorry Rae... my undies are the cheapies from walmart.

mysweetpeasWil&Wes replied:
Oh I have several pairs from Walmart too and actually love them!

Well you all were right... ...Must just be that ONE bad pair. Because the rest seem much more soft and comfy. I'm wearing some now and they are all good.
