Elastic wears out within months making these Hanes underwear unwearable
I've purchased Hanes briefs for 40 years; historically I wouldn't wear anything else (hated Fruit of the Loom or Jockey growing up). Hanes used to be great. They looked great, fit great and lasted a long time. No problems. However, since 2013 I've purchased 4 packages (some large packages) because, within months, the elastic in the waistband (and to a lesser extent around the leg openings) wears out. It's almost like they designed them to wear out in 2-3 months! It's a shame because the rest of the underwear is fine; but the elastic in the waist stretches out to almost twice the size and...they fall down. It's almost like going commando in your pants. If I'm in the bedroom wearing just the underwear and walk to the bathroom they literally fall down to my ankle if I don't hold them up. I've written 2 letters and sent emails to Hanes customer service and even the CEO of the company. Not even the courtesy of a response. Hanes, pay attention to all these reviews; they are almost all poor reviews. If you are outsourcing your manufacturing or elastic; find a better supplier or you will go from an American icon to...out of business. I'm not buying Hanes any more and will tell everybody I can they shouldn't either. Don't waste your money.
