I tried to love them. I really wanted to love them.

I didn't.

Thought I'd written a review, but I guess I didn't. They smell funny for a couple months (preservative from the factory in Turkey?). They ride up terribly for a year or so, then as soon as that stops they develop holes.

Mine are sitting on a shelf waiting for me to fix a hole or two. They've been sitting for 6 or 7 months now.

Next time I'm ordering the wool shorts from Joneswares. http://www.joneswares.com/item/Women..._Short/317/c71 I'm not gonna bother giving the Ibex Runner a second chance.

(oh, and the Ibex don't look like underwear, and you can wear them as shorts, though they aren't nearly as nice looking as the no-longer-made Ibex Roaster.)
