What are you guys using that’s durable, fits well and doesn’t ride up on your legs? Merino or something else? Sitka, first lite, Kuiu, Saxx, off brands......

I like the First Lite merino. I think they are called Red Desert or something like that. They are long, go almost to my knee and never ride up.

How’s the fit on them in the waist? Baggy like some of their stuff or does it fit pretty well

 

[huntcoop]

Saxx black sheep merino

 

[MedicineMan]

Saxx or Patagonia, neither ride up and both help prevent chafing

The fist lite one fit great. I have tried a bunch and those are what I prefer.

Jinshi. Once you try bamboo, you’ll never wear anything else.

I have not tried bamboo, but I read that it was comparable to cotton as far as moisture retention. Do you find that to be true. I was considering the bamboo base layers that Badlands used to make.

I don’t think they’re even close. I used to wear Hanes boxer briefs and then tried UA, kuiu and then Jinshi. Bamboo tops them all IMO

Always go commando when Im hiking a lot. I think its the way to go for faster drying etc

Bow hunting means most of my time in the field is in hot weather, the FL Aero Wool line is ideal for this.

Spent 12 days in a single pair in Albertas, Canada and zero funk! Impressive.

For colder weather I prefer Kuiu's heavier blends.

Saxx Blacksheep (merino) or FL merino. No synthetics.

If you don't wear any pants you'll dry even faster

I have worn one pair of these for over 1K miles of hiking. I'd say they're pretty durable. They dry quickly too.

ExOfficio give and go sport in various lengths depending on time of year.

Calvin Klein Micro stretch. Get them on sale at TJ max or Marshall’s. They’re great, I tried the bamboo and wasn’t impressed.
