Like I said in a  previous review, I have hips and I have a butt. I didn’t want a high waist underwear or anything  that looked granny. I wanted full coverage and something that I could run, jump and play in and not worry. These bottoms are just that. I like the mid waist because I can pull it up just enough over my tummy and yet it still looks sexy. I cant go wrong with these. Cant wait to wear them in Dominican Republic  in a few weeks.
