MERIWOOL Mens Boxer Briefs Merino Wool Underwear Base Layer for Men

I tried these about a year ago. I originally just ordered one pair but shortly after I ordered 3 more. At this point it’s the only underwear that I wear. They fit snug almost like compression shorts but not as binding, but are super comfortable like soft cotton briefs. Very moisture wicking and breathable.

I've been looking for boxers that could last for several days of straight wear, comfy, don't get stankified, wash and dry quick, durable, etc.. These are 5 star across the board! Wore them for 3 days straight hiking and biking with little stinkage and still fit tight without to much sag around my buns and bits and pieces. Wool is really nice on the skin like a velvet glove on a cool spring morning. When taking a shower just rinse them out right there with a little soap and dry the next morning! Cannot say enough good things about these! The front gives your boys room to breath and don't try to bag the package up with an oddly sewn pouch as some of the other recommended versions do. Plenty of room to swing without discomfort. If you are into super light travel, you really only need 2 pairs for a good 2 week trip. Just switch them out every 2 days. I ended up purchasing 2 packs of 2. Great price and got a 10% discount card in the purchase!

Unfortunately, these are not available in my size at the moment. Hopefully, they're not discontinued!! You simply can't beat Marino wool - not cotton, not any blend, not any synthetic, not even silk can match the blend of durability, comfort, temperature regulation, moisture control, quick drying, ease of washing, and long-term odor control for extended hikes / camping, etc. I have heard every argument, tried every other type of fiber. High end synthetics match or exceed in some areas, but fabric treatments and other such trickery eventually wears off. Marino wool starts, continues, and stays as good as the day you got it, until it literally wears to the point that it falls off your body. The stuff is relatively expensive on a per pair basis. Just hand wash with something like Woolite when necessary, hang dry and they'll last a very long time.

Most comfortable and least durable clothing I've ever bought. I had these in a drawer and just started using them. Two months into wearing them, they started stretching and literally pulling apart. They're literally unusable. I don't know if they're defective or they're just too fragile. I think if they were 10% cotton or something, maybe it would be more durable. Update is that they made it right by sending me new pairs. I will see how these hold up. I hope they do because they're the most comfortable and healthy from a chemical standpoint underwear that I've owned. Try a pair out and see how they do.

I got these in preparation to walk the Camino de Santiago from Seville. I received and trained with them for a few weeks before I set off to Spain. There was a deformity in the elastic band that caused it to crease in the center and fold inwards as I wore them. A little inconvenient but otherwise harmless. They had and always did a very good job of wicking moisture and not collecting any scent even when I wore them for weeks. Yet, within two weeks of my trip they began to fall apart. What started as a dime sized hole grew to the size of a tennis ball within a matter of days. Part of the preparation for thru hiking is packing light, using dependable and versatile gear that can accommodate a variety of circumstances. I was essentially in the middle of nowhere as I dealt with issues I am describing above and had little recourse otherwise. The hole caused intense chafing that was unavoidable as I had to walk upwards of 10 miles daily to get from stop to stop. What was already a difficult trip had been compounded by the default of this product. I’ve returned them, I’ve received my refund, but I can not receive any retribution for my experience with this product. I trusted in this brand, I depended on this product, and I dealt with significant and quite literal pain for doing so. I strongly do not recommend these.

Pros - Eliminated chafing on >45 min runs - Great cooling, feels like synthetics without the drawbacks - Doesn’t smell, even with minimal washing Caveats - Needs careful washing (hand rinse or delicate/cold only) - Price is high, but cost-per-wear is better than cheap synthetics (Detailed) I bought these for long distance running where running times will exceed 45 mins. I had an issue with chaffing. This fixed it. No more Vasoline, Squirrel's Nut Butter...NOTHING. I just put these on and run. They also had the additional effect of being top tier for cooling. They are literally equivalent to generic synthetic fiber running shorts without the chaffing. Ok, so if you are buying these, you need to shape your expectations about what you can do to them. Particularly in regards to care. Most of us are used to just throwing crap in the washer and dryer and just expecting things to be fine. This is not the case with these. IMO, I don't even cold wash these in the washer. I literally hand rinse these in cold water after usage and let them air dry 90% of the time. If I use detergent, it will be very light. If you think this is unhygienic, /shrug. The boxers don't really retain any real smell or stains. In general, it seems that while merino wool is not fragile, it is sensitive to normal washing conditions. I treat these like equipment rather than just some random piece of clothing I can just throw around. Consider this, merino wool is kind of a magic material for a natural fiber. It keeps you warm, cools, doesn't chafe, is stretchy, is durable. There has to be a cost somewhere right? It seems in the washing department is where that cost is

Seemed great at first, lightweight, well constructed. Then holes appeared from no-wear. Don’t waste your money. Didn’t even last a year. See pics

very comfortable ad helps keep the smell and moisture down on the warmer days hunting. I would recommend for sure
