Of these shorts I was - especially at this price.! - Immediately enthusiastic and have the same added myself several copies. I like against the likewise offered here predecessor the wider waistband made of strong elastic band (which then probably not 100% merino wool), which carries significantly more convenient because it does not fold over. The laundry is easy, does not scratch, is airy and can, if necessary, be worn for days without being disagreeable. The washing is carried out easily in the washing machine. This makes it superior to comparable products made of artificial fibers far as those particular to aerobic activity, tend to unpleasant odors due to severe bacterial activity.
