Where do you buy your everyday pants?

My pants/ knicker drawer is looking rather empty after chucking anything that was too big/ old/ saggy/ grim. Blush

Where's best for buying simple, cotton, everyday pants?
I used to do M&S but the last set were rubbish- poor quality, thin and not-very-elastic elastic! Hmm

Thanks! :)

Gap pants last forever, fit really well and are comfy (my 35 years old parameters - how things have changed). Calvin Klein at outlet stores are also great at lasting forever (the cottony ones). I've also had a few pairs from Primark that have been surprisingly nice and long lasting but I have had to hunt carefully. H and M can be ok too.

But I second m and s are just not what they were. They've gone flimsier and not as fitting.

Right as sainsburys will be the closest I get to a shop this week I'll have a squiz there. I did have some from there a while back but 2 pregnancies and a LOT of wear knackered them! Blush

Gap, M&S are just shite now, for everything, shitesters.

carrie74 · 30/09/2012 17:15

Yes, used to buy from M&S, but last time I bought, they were shocking. Quite frankly, if I want Primark quality (and pricing), I'll go to Primark.

Gap have been excellent since (been about 4-5 years now). Victoria's Secret good too, but less available.

I have John Lewis multipack ones which have lasted really well, much better than M&S. Just bought some Victoria's Secret which are nice - can mix and match from lots of colours and styles.

It used to be M&S but now I find Debenhams are better quality.

HappyAsEyeAm · 30/09/2012 20:28

M&S brazilian all the way for me. Usually 3 for £10 too.

Asda high-legs every time. Warm and comfy

Sloggi pants always work well, they used to do bras for the smaller chested of us...

Floralnomad · 04/10/2012 00:28

Sloggi here as well , and I don't find that they come up small, last for ages and really comfortable.

MarysBeard · 04/10/2012 04:05

Sainsbury's also. Also get bras from there - £6, fit really well.

PerryCombover · 04/10/2012 07:30

Magic and sparkle
Brazilians or midis depending

Jaeme · 04/10/2012 15:03

Victoria's Secret cotton lingerie for everyday stuff.

minipie · 04/10/2012 15:24

Gap all the way. Their low rise bikinis are comfy and stay put without having harsh elastic. And they bring out new colours/patterns all the time.

Most other knickers seem to ride up (could just be my ample behind though!)

Just bought mine out of M&S yesterday. Have been needing new pants for ages! Decided to get on and buy them when I was running a few other errands in the town.
