Comments about REI Silk Long Underwear Bottoms - Men's:
I ordered these online and after receiving them was shocked to see how thin they are. They really are a light weight garment but somehow manage to be warm. Granted, I used them for spring skiing but they are much warmer than you'd think by appearance alone.
So the good: lightweight & warm
The bad:
The fly is too high for "easy access"; it takes a bit of work to use the restroom.
Second, I'm concerned about long term durability of these. I was taking off my ski pants and the edge of my suspenders caught on the fabric, leaving a tear similar to what you would see in pantyhose. I'm going to keep an eye on that hole next year and if it grows I plan to return these.
Overall I still recommend, but not without reservation.

I use them everyday that I need to work outdoors.
I place them in my backpack with my work clothes and use them regularly.
Unexpectedly durable, easy to pack and extremely warm when they need to be.
recommended these to family and friends.

Recent CA transplant to MD. This is the perfect match for the colder climate. Very light and comfortable. Probably too light for extreme cold.

They are very comfortable and good for wicking sweat and keeping out the chilly air. Keep them away from velcro as it causes them to fray very easily.

Comments about REI Silk Long Underwear Bottoms - Men's:
I've never used long underwear because I live in the desert. I have a two-year assignment in a Northeastern city and I bought a pair of these to see how it would help me with the cold.
I now have numerous different types, including wool and polartec, but the silk is the most comfortable. It's also tied with polartec for warmest.

Comments about REI Silk Long Underwear Bottoms - Men's:
The good thing about these is the comfortable fit. They can easily be worn under any clothes. And going indoors does not lead to feeling overly warm. That's the great thing about silk.
Earlier models felt a bit smoother still, but these are fine as well, and probably a bit more durable. I tend to have problems finding the opening, thus need to "grope" more than I like. That's the only minor complaint.
Paid a lot of postage to have them sent overseas, as I knew these were what I wanted again.

Comments about REI Silk Long Underwear Bottoms - Men's:
Been wearing these for many years. The product was slightly better a few years ago with multiple colors but remains outstanding. Best part is they provide great warmth when outside but are comfortable inside all day long. Nothing like silk. They wear well and even with constant use about five months a year and daily washing they hold up for two or three years.
