Ok

No, I don't recommend this

Not as good as they used to be. Material is thinner and they are slightly smaller, so husband says.

Good for a low plastic lifestyle, love them

Yes, I recommend this

From what I can tell, the only plastic is the elastic but it's fully enclosed in cotton, so not touching my skin and not shedding any microplastics. Otherwise, all cotton. Really happy with them, good value

Disappointing quality and sizing problems

No, I don't recommend this

Having purchased my underwear from M&S for many years it is sad to find that these are of much lesser quality than previous items, particularly the coarseness of the stitching. Plus the sizing is all over the place - I am a slim(ish) 34" waist, and would usually take a medium size - but had to take an XL in this style to get a comfortable fit. So in summary: OK for the price but don't think I will be purchasing them again.

Comfortable and long lasting

Yes, I recommend this

Have worn these button fly shorts for many years and find them very comfortable and durable. The button fly front is so much more convenient.

Yes, I recommend this

These are the only fabric covered waist elastic boxers hubby can where, uncovered elastic causes a rash, these are comfortable, keep shape, wear well, excellent value for money

It's a no from me.

No, I don't recommend this

Very disappointed with these pants. They have a single button fly and I found them very difficult to button up. In comparison I bought a five pack from a competitor with a simple 'keyhole' fly and they are far superior. Sorry M&S but these fell well below the standard I have come to expect from you.
