Way too $ for the material, Don't last

These were given to me as a gift. Normally for my hiking or any outdoor adventures I wear merino wool underwear. I wore these a few times on long haul hikes and I was miserable. That's when I looked these up and couldn't believe the cost for what they are made from.. They also started falling apart after 2 washes. I think you're just paying a high premium for the brand name.

These were comfortable but the material is very thin. Developed holes from normal wear and ended up throwing away within a year.

Comfortable but pills easily

Comfortable and was going to be the new go to but it pills super easily, within 2 wearings there was significant pilling. Not the end of the world but would hope for better long term wear.

Essential for a reason!

Familiarity:
I've put it through the wringer

Very breathable but warm when needed. Goes with just about any pant besides skinny jeans sadly but worth a look into

Tag & packaging is bad. Boxer is good.

I received 10 pairs of these recently. In order to remove the tag and packaging I damaged two of them. The tag is extremely big and it makes no sense why in the world they would sew a massive tag into an item that directly contacts the body. This ABSOLUTELY takes the premium product feel out of this item. When I have bought boxers from the company with a dead bird logo they sew in a little piece of fabric between the tag and the boxer to make it easy to remove. That is a premium product. This is not. Of the 10 I received, half of them had a different packaging style that included four separate plastic tags into the boxer. I ended up with holes in two of the boxers while trying to remove these. In total I spent 30 minutes removing tags on 10 pairs of boxers and damaged two in the process. With the complaining done, I would like to say that I do find these to be very comfortable and lightweight.

Underwear has a hole in it

I got these as a present for my boyfriend because he loves his other pair of these underwear. Unfortunately when he opened this pair there's a hole ripped in them, and now we have to pay $7 for shipping to return them! Seems like they should cover shipping for defective items. Definitely not happy with this purchase.

I've owned 2 of these since late September (so about a month). They are surprisingly comfortable for daily wear. I've also rotated them into my athletic use and they have held up very well alongside my Exofficio boxers. Would recommend these. Sizing: I typically wear 33/34", and the Medium feels just right.
