ExOfficio Give-N-Go Boy Cut Brief - Women's

First of all, these are not a traditional boy short as the picture misconstrues, more of a full coverage panty.
Second of all, they rock! No odors, they dry really fast and are super comfy. These are my 'active' panties for the no-sweat factor. After testing out several pairs of undies, these were my favorite for fit and functionality.

very little ride up. I use these for a ultra light swim/river bath on backpacking trips. I like a little coverage for the front & back and Since I don't carry a razor I don't have to be embarrased to swim/bath w/others around on day 3 or above. (if you get my drift ladies). I also love that it takes very little room, dries in about 2 hours in 80% humidity, and a size large (dry) weighs in at just under 2oz.

For the price I wanted these to not ride up the rear. But they do. Not terribly, but still--- they ride a bit. They are more of low-cut briefs than boy-short style. They are decent; I just expected more for paying so much.

Underwear was the same great quality that you would expect from Ex-Officio: stays in place on body, no lingering odor after 12 hour rigorous hikes, washes perfectly - still look like new. However, it is in my personal opinion that this underwear offers too much coverage between the waist and bum. For myself I ordered a medium (I’m and athletic 5'10.5'' 150lbs) and they are VERY full coverage on the rear - almost more true shorts not boy-cut shorts underwear. I gain all my weight on my lower half and have a very hmm...developed rump shall we say, and these went clear into my thigh- still snug and comfortable but more fabric than I would have desired. Be aware if you have ultra thin legs and a less than round bottom- you may want to order a size down.

My entire underwear collection for last summer consisted of three of these underwear. I was a river guide living out of my vehicle and camping for three months straight, constantly getting wet and not having much access to laundry facilities. These underwear were perfect; they dried fast, didn't acquire an oder as most poly-pro clothing does on the river and pack super light.
