Fruit of the Loom Women's Breathable Micro-Mesh Underwear, 6-Pack

There are a lot of kinds of underwear out there. Cute ones, itchy ones, ones so tall they keep creeping above your waist band, ones that roll down, ones that dig in around your legs, and every once in a while, you find those rare goldilocks ones that you simply put on and forget you're even wearing. These are in the latter, very rare, category. Wide enough not to cause wedgies in the back, not too tight around the legs, not so high they show above most clothes, but not low enough to roll down, just a comfortable, everyday functional cut. While I love natural fabrics for almost everything else in my wardrobe, the mesh these are made of is really functional. It packs small, doesn't stain, and most importantly, in hot weather it doesn't become soggy with sweat like cotton briefs do. It's also slippery enough that clothes won't cling to it and the elastic is smooth enough not to show under most normal clothes. These have been my daily wear staples for years now. For some reason it seems like they are frequently out of stock, and I wish there were more curated color options (lime green?! Hot pink?!) but overall, these are amazing.

I love the material of these undies. As an avid backpacker/hiker who trains 6 days a week and hikes over 2,000 miles a year, having mesh undies is crucial. The material of all your clothes determines how hot you get, how cold, how much you sweat, etc. And these undies are perfect for all conditions. The colors are nice, but I love the mesh material!
