Comfortable, stays put, breathable for working out and for wearing under skirts/dresses while biking.

l am always on the lookout for wool clothing for half marathons, long distance hiking with a backpack and canoeing. This is it! I'm sitting here contrasting it with a competitor's merino wool shorts (in my hand): label on the outside--not with the competitor's (no chafing), over 90% percent of wool (no odor after vigorous use) (compared to competitor's shorts with 46% nylon + 38% merino--and it can be called "wool"? good grief!) Panel construction between the legs so that the seams don't rub each other (and chafe) when the inner thighs touch. Thick enough so not see through. I'm 5'1" and weigh 115 lbs. The small fits just right. I received these as a gift. Now I'm going to buy another color before they sell out.

I wear these almost daily for yoga in 90F studio. I swear like mad, but they are almost instantly dry. I lay them out each day to dry and wash them once a week. It’s amazing- no smell. I could probably go longer between washing but the fabric relaxes and gets looser than I want.

These shorts are a great fit and length (I'm 120 lbs, 5'2", and got size S). I like wearing them to workout, as well as under dresses. However, I ordered Charcoal, and my shorts were a slate blue instead of dark grey (luckily, I like slate blue)-- the tag said they were Charcoal, but I'm wondering if there was a blip in the factory and they sent me Deep Sea with incorrect label.

Ran a marathon in these, stayed comfortable throughout. Went to wash them 2 days later and they didn’t smell.
