simply a question of how long it will be before you
find it out for yourself. MUNSING UNDERWEAR
is made to fittailored as it were to fit the form
and finished as no other underwear is finished. There
are no bunglesome seams, no clumsily worked button
holes, no loosely knit ankles or cuffs, and best of all
they're always just the same shape and retain their
elasticity until they're worn out, doesn't matter how
often they have been to the laundry.
