Munsing Union Suits are so thoroughly satisfactory because there's no slipping nor
sliding to them-they always stay in place. . They can't ride up nor slip down.
They are shaped so as not to bind anywhere, yet fit perfectly in every part. The web
is very elastic and yields freely to any motion. As to washing, a Munsing Fit
never washes out In fact, each tubbing, if properly done, only serves to improve the
fit and appearance of the garment. Being carefully knit of soft fine grade yarns,
they cannot irritate even a supersensitive skin. You'll never scratch in Munsingwear.
