"Awesome for strenuous activity where you'll be sweating"

I wore these on a 2 day backpacking trip and they dry up quickly I barely noticed I was sweating, super comfy. I felt like I didn't need to change these when we made camp but I did anyway. My only caveat is that being a brief they chafed, a boy short with this fabric would have been better. Trying out Isis's boyshorts next.
I went on a week long hiking trip and well... no showering. And so everyone on the trip was told that if you were going to splurge on something, it should be this! The material that these underwear are made from keeps moisture away which you really want. They also were very easy to move in and very comfortable. Even now, I still wear these on a regular basis and I really enjoy them!
I bought two pairs of these briefs to wear while hiking and camping in the Grand Canyon. This was our first venture hiking the Canyon, and so I was a little nervous on selecting the appropriate clothing - particularly underwear - to help make our trek a success. I made the right selection in these panties. Not only did they wick away moisture but they stayed put! Picking underwear out of the cheeks with hiking poles would not have been favorable...Actually, I love these briefs so much I now wear them to work under my business casual pants and skirts. They provide a smooth, flattering look and are super comfortable. I am now adding to my supply. Good by thongs, hello Patagonia briefs! :)
I got them as a gift, and I thought it was unnecessary to spend a lot on underwear but it really does make a difference. They dont fall apart like cotton, and they provide some moisture wicking to prevent them from getting damp when you sweat. They are also thin so they dont feel bulky under multiple layers. Definitely very comfortable for normal wear, a must for high activity.
My mom bought this underwear for me, and it IS pretty comfy. But it’s underwear…not really anything special and certainly not worth 4X the price I usually pay for underwear. I think that pretty much sums it up.
