    I cannot imagine wearing a wool bra. I get hot enough as it is when I'm working out.

    The patagonia briefs I have are high waisted like that. More like a French cut than a hipster. I don't know if this is it, cuz I bought them a couple years ago: http://www.patagonia.com/usa/product...AR.WOMENS.BODY The waistband sits just about where my pants waistband is, so I don't have the dreaded "upper panty line". One of the things I like so much about my Patagonias is that the waist isn't low!

    sounds like they may have changed the pattern since I bought mine. Bummer, cuz I'd really like a couple more pair.

    Betcha they have. This summer I bought a Patagonia bikini (swimsuit) online and though I actually do like it, boy it has teeny bottoms! Just short of showing cleavage, and I am just old enough that I don't think that's an attractive look on anyone in public...

    (actually, does ANYONE think that's an attractive look????).

    They are not indecent but I'm always worried that they will become so one way or another if I'm not constantly vigilant about where they are .

    No, mine look like the picture you linked to, but they are WAY below the belly button. Not great.

    Just dug my undies out of the dirty laundry. They are definitely a French Cut kind of style. Tag says, " Cut 5425 Style 32401 Spring 07"

    I'll be very sad if I can't find more.

    Sandra, I could start a whole thread on Le Mystere... I don't buy their bras, but I do buy their undies. Yes, I buy thongs, ladies because I like pants that are below the waist and I can't stand the dreaded panty line. So, I went to a real lingerie store and they steered me to the Le Mystere line. They don't show through anything! I do buy Wacoal bras, which are just as expensive. And they make what are so nicely called "petite" sized bras!

    I've tried a lot of bras in my lifetime, and believe me, with 34DD's I have to have a bra that is good. Won't wear any other kind now than Le Mystere. I wish they made a sports bra!

    Wacoal has a sports line with a completely different name: CWX. And TE sells it: http://www.teamestrogen.com/brands.asp?brandID=119

    Susan O might know if Le Mystere has a sports line under a different name.
