I loved these so much when I tried them on in the store that I purchased 2 pairs (solid teal and solid black). I normally wear a Large in swim bottoms, but the Medium fit so I went with those. I loved how flattering they are since they don't dig into your waist. The issues started within the second use for each pair. I was on spring break in Mexico and attempted an aqua aerobics class, but the bottoms ballooned out in the water with each move. OK, fine, maybe they're not meant for this sort of activity. But they're also not meant for just sitting on a beach chair. As the day went along, the backside stretched out horribly on both pairs. My husband said it looked like I was wearing a diaper. Upon returning home, I washed and dried them hoping that would help to shrink them back into place but it didn't. So now I have 2 expensive swim bottoms that are basically useless to me, as they are large and misshapen. I won't purchase Calia swim ever again.
