I'm only going to address fit here because I only bought these to wear at night to deal with occasional pee leaks while sleeping. As of yet, thankfully, I've not had any "accidents" so cannot speak to absorbency.
I am pear shaped and have much bigger thighs than average so keep that in mind. I'd like to say that I really appreciate the extended sizes. It's hard to find bigger sizes in period underwear.
So, on the plus side, there is no tightness around my thighs which is always a consideration for me and the waist does not roll down. They are truly high waisted (at least belly button). I ordered according to the size chart using my measurements and over all they fit fine. Maybe a bit large.
They unfortunately feel bulky and warm. The crotch extends for some reason all the way up the front which just adds to the feeling. The biggest issue is they just do not stay put. They just live in my butt crack. Pull them out, rearrange myself and minutes later they crawl back. They wash fine but attract lint like crazy in the dryer.
I bought both the microfiber and cotton of this style and I 1000% prefer the microfiber. The cotton is thicker than the microfiber and is therefore warmer and heavier feeling. Also, most importantly, the microfiber stay put for the majority of the time. There is also no weird extra fabric running all the way up the front either.
I have another brand of period underwear and much prefer their fit, however, they are quite a bit more expensive and are…

A bit diaper-ish and doesn’t seem to be designed for plus sized women. The absorbent part is incredibly thick and the rest of the underwear is very thin. The waistband is also weirdly thin and not very stretchy or comfortable. I’m not saying these are useless, I just don’t think they are made for everyone! Glad someone is trying to make periods more environmentally friendly.

These do the job but don't fit as nicely as the microfiber version.

The material of these underwear do not stretch at all. The coverage is fine, but they are the same size as my other period underwear, but do not fit the same. This is why I only gave 2 stars.

the fit was comfortable. i truly could have sized down as the 2x was more roomy than expected. i wore it about 5 hours on what i considered a my medium flow, and the spaciousness of the fit likely contributed to the leakage i experienced. the bleed through wet the seat i was sitting on, so i had to do some damage control. since my pants were dark, the bleed through wasn't as glaringly obvious. that leak/bleed through moment was my only complaint. the under garments are easy to clean and i feel great about making the sustainable switch and minimizing my waste! i would definitely recommend.
