        Comments about SmartWool Microweight Bikini Briefs - Wool - Women's:

        Purchased two pairs and I absolutely love them! I've worn them in weather from 30-85 – comfortable no matter what. Half of the time I can't even tell I'm wearing underwear, it's lovely.

        These are by far the nicest and most enjoyable under-garments I have ever owned. I'd recommend them for everyday use as well as serious outdoor endeavors.

          Comments about SmartWool Microweight Bikini Briefs - Wool - Women's:

          I was excited to see wool underwear thinking that my skin might appreciate the fact that wool retains its warmth when wet during my long winter runs. However, these are too light to provide any warmth; they would likely work better in the summer than on my long winter runs. Maybe SmartWool can make a mid or heavier weight version for winter use? As far as comfort goes, I liked that they have no elastic but found them less comfy than my favorite Patagonia undies (the active hipster brief). These microbriefs are so lightweight that they don't stay in place when I'm running so they really aren't well-suited for heavy activity.

            soft, but not for curvy girls

                Comments about SmartWool Microweight Bikini Briefs - Wool - Women's:

                I bought these because I love Smartwool products and liked that the elastic on these is delicate and won't cut in. However, I'm 5 feet tall and curvy (37-29-38) and found that these ride up when I squat or bend over. There just isn't enough coverage on the backside. I ordered a medium, but think that if I get a large, they will be too big at the hip. Still, they are soft and lightweight, so I would recommend them to someone with a different body shape than mine.
