Women's Ridge Boy Short Underwear by Ridge Merino

Favorite backpacking underwear

I wore these for my entire 5 month Appalachian Trail thru-hike and loved them. I would make sure to use the size chart as they are true to size. They provided complete coverage and great double for swimming. I swam in them at least 10 times on my thru-hike. I did have the black which may have made them less see-through. They never wore down or got any holes and I am excited to wear them for years to come.

Best hiking underwear all around.

My first pair lasted me hundreds of miles and years. They don’t smell even after a few days; have great moisture wicking properties, and dry quickly in all seasons. My “go to” underwear for outdoor activities: even walking around Disney World in the heat!

Great shorts

They fit well, light but not too thin. The fabric is comfortable and not itchy at all. I got them for backpacking but so far have only worn them on some day hikes. They are very comfortable .
