I love modern wool underwear, and these are functionally great, but really ugly. They look sorta like y-fronts, but sorta not. And I'm not crazy about the brand name in big letters on the waistband. Functionally, they do all that wool should do--tame odor, wick moisture, be soft on the skin. These should look nicer for the price.
Women's Wickerino Wool Modern Briefs
Have you any wool? In your underwear drawer, that is. If you haven’t tried the supremely soft, naturally wicking and thermoregulating comfort of merino undies, you don’t know what you’re missing! Wickerino Wool Modern Briefs are crafted from a sumptuous blend of premium fibers that’s cozy, resilient and feels smooth against skin. A wider-than-most brushed elastic waistband won’t cut in, while flat-set stitching keeps a low profile under clothing. They’re our most premium line of unders on offer – and once you’ve tried them for yourself, you’ll understand why.
Size
I purchased this in the same size that I purchase for all of my Duluth clothing, including the cotton underwear. But when I put them on, they were absolutely enormous. They go all the way up beyond my belly button. I'm not sure if this is what they mean by "modern fit," but I was very disappointed. I will be returning my unopened pair. However, I will say that they are comfortable and soft. The wool is not scratchy at all. I also really like the color choices.
I have the Wickerino bras and underwear, and I wear them daily. If they offered neutral color options, I could wear it for every occasion! I size down in the bra and also size down in the underwear. They're so comfortable that you forget you are wearing dreaded undergarments! When I do wear a different bra, ya know... because I need something that isn't hot pink, I notice sweat, which is 100% not a problem with the Wickerino line at all. THANK YOU DULUTH! More NEUTRAL colors please!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Very comfortable, and yes, very large. I have them in two sizes- the usual L, and a better fit M. I tried, unsuccessfully to shrink the L with hot water and hot dryer settings. Soft, dry, and stink free. Plan to purchase more, hoping for an expansion in color selection.
I get all my underwear from Duluth, and ordered the same size as usual. They are HUGE. They are about 2" waistband larger than the same size in Barenaked. They are also the highest cut I've ever seen, they come up nearly to my bra line. The fabric is divine, I'd be madly in love if they weren't also comically giant. My husband burst out laughing when I took them out of the package. So I'd recommend downsizing at least 1 size, maybe 2. I tore the cardboard taking them out or I'd return.
