Doesn't ride up
If you are looking for full coverage underwear that doesn't ride up then get these. They will show a slight pantyliner but sometimes it's worth it when you don’t want them to ride up.

Très bien

Je n’hésiterais pas à m’en procurer d’autres
Very nice!
I’ve worn the same brand of underwear for over a decade. The last few pairs I bought were a slightly different cut and I didn’t like them as much. I bought one pair of these to try out and then immediately bought five more and then three more a couple of weeks later. They are very comfortable in all ways - fit and fabric feel. The panty is a generous cut and covers my backside well. The waist and legs are not tight so no visible pantie line and I like the fact that the crotch is partially made of cotton and is breathable. A winner for me!
