    Comments about Patagonia Capilene 2 Bottoms - Men's:

    These are obviously well-made and well-purposed for outdoor wear.

    I like them for that, but also for pajamas, both at home and on the road.

    Nothing as well made and comfortable. Last forever.

    Patagonia's lifetime warranty means if they have any defect in materials (as I once had on a pair of their shorts) that doesn't show up for a long time, you can get a replacement.

    With the new Gladiodor treatment, you can wear these for days on end (like on a business trip or holiday, when you are too lazy to wash them) without them getting funky. Having to take only 1 pair helps keep travel packing light! (Think, Rick Steves Europe.)

    Since they are made of synthetic as opposed to wool or cotton, one pair is enough for travel, since you can sink wash in the morning them using hotel soap bars or shampoo, ring them out (final ring in a hotel towel), hang them up, and they will be dry enough to wear that same night. Try that with wool or cotton, which take days to dry! Even if they are damp, they still insulate and will dry out on you quickly.

    Be sure to choose the right weight - Capilene 2 for summer, Capilene 3 for winter.

      Great as a warm baselayer. Very durable and soft against the skin. If you wear these and shell pants you will be warm well below freezing temps.

        I would recommend spending a little extra and getting Capilene. I have tried other cheaper synthetic underwear, and though initially the cheaper stuff performed about the same, it didn't take many trips and it was coming apart at the seams and pilling quite a bit.

          Comments about Patagonia Capilene 2 Bottoms - Men's:

          These Long Underwear are great. I spent the summer taking teens on a canoeing trip and these were both my pj's and rainy/cold weather camp pants. I was in Northern Ontario and these were more than enough. The only thing I would say is pay attention when you put them on, I put a few holes in the butt of mine when I was sitting on a rock and pulling them up after a nice dip in the cold lake. However, they have not started to frey more after 2 months.

            The only problem with these pants is that they are to durable. That's good for me but bad for Patagonia :) actually I guess it good for Patagonia because I always recommend it to all my friends. and I now own over 5 pairs for myself :)
