If it wasn't made from wicking and breathable merino wool, the Icebreaker Women's Hipster Brief could be mistaken for lingerie. But unlike the frilly stuff, the Hipster Brief features a double layer gusset for excellent comfort while climbing, backpacking and running. Icebreaker added an exceptionally soft single elastic trim along the waist and leg openings for extra comfort on long hauls. The Hipster features BodyFit150 Ultralight fabric; the lightest and most breathable merino wool blend created by Icebreaker. As with all Icebreaker garments, this special material is completely itch-free and feels exceptionally soft against your skin.

Best underwear purchase!
I've done a ridiculous amount of research trying to find the perfect undies, and these really are quite perfect for me! Comfortable, don't ride up, are true to size, cute, easy to wash & dry. I often hand wash mine in the shower and air dry - they can be dry by the next morning if you towel-roll them. They wick really well, I'm a musician/dancer/performer and can really work up a sweat, these always leave me feeling dry and comfortable. I'm also pleased with Icebreakers efforts to be a sustainable, ecologically sound company. Thanks Icebreaker!

Nice Fabric
These are made out of a very nice, soft, lightweight wool fabric. Nice cut, although I wish they would also make a regular brief. These are very low cut.

comfortable and cute!
This was my first pair of wool underwear. They do wick moisture and they are very soft and comfortable. True to size.

Great for what's out there
I have been searching high and low for a great pair of wool underwear. These are pretty good. Some thoughts: 1. Fabric: I love the wool fabric but am not crazy about the elastic around the waist and legs. It would have been nicer if the elastic was concealed. 2. Fit: They are extremely comfortable and fit well (true to size). 3. Design/Style: I prefer solid (no flower print).
