I returned these in favor of the Smart Wool

By srogerslis849578 Ranked #237 - Women's Long Underwear November 26, 2008

I wasn't sure which of the women's wool long underwear bottoms would be the best, so I ordered the Icebreaker, the Marmot, and the Smart Wool. The Icebreaker long underwear bottoms were 1) just a tiny bit scratchy 2) too tight in the elastic waist band, which was both unflattering and uncomfortable and 3) too high up on my torso, with the waist coming far over my belly button. The Marmot had seams in the legs that made them less attractive and less suitable for use as leggings that might show (versus long underwear that would never show), and they were also baggy in the butt and high waisted. In contrast, the Smartwool were much softer, with a different knit, and they have a nice, covered elastic waist band that hits just below my natural waist without binding or creating a muffin top (and I am thin, so the Icebreaker ones had to be really tight in the waist to make that happen).
