I like these panties so much that I've ordered them more than once. They're lightweight, just the right length and have no uncomfortable stays which dig in.

I'd had these before & loved them. I've lost a lot of weight and have extra sags, but these smooth everything out. I like that they are above the waist, as it makes such a smooth line.

perfect fit and no line noticeable. Good for pants and shorts

The butt "cut outs" on these were not large enough and cut into the round portion of my buttocks. Might not be the best choice for women with large bottoms and small waists. The assets by Sarah Blakely fit better.

Many reviewers on this site seemed to like these. I felt that for the added bulk of the "firm control" fabric, they didn't offer more shaping than a more comfortable lighter control version of the garment.

Love this brand. I am between sizes, ordered L instead of M. I find these really comfortable. They don't roll at the waist, and the leg bottoms stay put nicely.

I was delighted to find the Body Wrap Long Leg Panty. I purchased one several years ago and loved it. I have been looking for a new one, but I couldn't find one. Spanx and other products just do not fit as well and have the support that the Body Wrap does. It's comfortable, doesn't ride up, and helps shape so very well. I am happy to have found the Body Wrap again!

These are the best bike-short style support panties made! I recently went looking for them in stores and tried on dozens of alternatives; none fit as well as these, so I ordered them online.
Unlike Spanx and all the others, they aren't too loose at my waist (I'm hour-glass shaped) and the legs are long enough to make it to my knees. In the summer (it gets very hot and humid here), I wear these under every skirt I own to prevent chafing thighs (nylons are too hot). I picked one size smaller than the chart says I should wear, using my waist size as the determining factor. That works best for my shape. These are especially good for women whose hips and waists are very different measurements (hour-glass).

This is so far the best "bike short" shaper I've worn.
I wanted a firm shaper to help with my 40-something bulges and this gives me a nice, smooth shape. It's also incredibly comfortable and I barely knew I was wearing it.
Neutral item: the butt cheek panels. I guess it's supposed to prevent your butt from getting squashed. My butt is pretty flat so didn't make any difference.
Negative (for me) I really wish they had a cotton panel on the crotch. I wear light panty shields and they don't stick to the lighted ridged material the shaper is made of. Not a huge thing. More of a "wish they would..."

I really liked this product. It was very comfortable and had right much support.

Smooths everything and puts it in its proper place.
