I cannot say enough about this product! I am in love! The fabric is very soft yet feels very durable. If you choose colors opposite your skin tone, you will get a nice color contrast in the little cutaway area (I am fair skinned and the beige pair doesn't highlight this sexy feature like the black and navy colors do). The double bikini strap lays flat and doesn't itch or scratch. There is a cotton lining in the crotch which elevates this product above cheaper varieties. I am normally between a 6 and a 7 size, and I bought both in these--the 7 fits much better. I would say they are true to size--and probably run slightly smaller than larger so if you are between sizes, I would go with the larger size in these.
