...Well actually my 14 year old Daughter. She says they rock! We bought 6 pair this go around. Everyday wear includes nordic ski racing, yoga, cross training. Buy 'em.
These are great except for the tags, which are super annoying. I cut them off, but the remnants are still scratchy, so I wear the underwear inside out. Otherwise, they are extremely comfortable and last forever.
I have worn these for years, doing everything from work to play, and everything in between. I have used them on two through hikes for hundreds of miles, and they have not let me down. They don't ride up, they don't bunch up, and they stay true to form after hundreds of washes. I won't wear anything else.
I have never been disappointed in any of your products, at least until now. The briefs
are uncomfortable, the elastic cuts into the leg.
I don't know the name of the of the prior style but I will continue to use them since they are the my best option.
These undies are lightweight, look great, don't give me wedgies, and did I mention they're comfy comfy comfy?! I'm 5'3" and weight ~140ish lbs and the mediums are perfect.
Patagonia underwear is the only underwear that I will wear forever! Best fit, breathable, durable, quick dry. My only complaint is the little white tag. It is totally annoying and difficult to remove.
After finding these amazing undies at one of the stores I tried to find them online. Unfortunately, the first two pair I bought online were not the right ones (W's Barely Bikini) and I returned them and was out more than $10 on shipping (by the way, please look into shipping alternatives as there are some much more reasonable ones out there wh... Read Moreere you get good rates and are able to pass the savings onto your customers).
These undies are the holy grail of comfiness for me! They just fit right (even though I'm thin, I have a very curvy bottom) and are super breathable. And unlike the previously mentioned panties, these ones allow liners and pads to stick. (The unfortunate "side-effect" of the other ones was pads and liners that migrated to my skin instead.)
Please never change a thing with these!
I have been wearing your underwear for over 30 years, maybe a little less. I have repaired the stitch many times, good as new. The issue is that the old underwear was soft, no rubbing, no itching, they were NOT tight. I bought three new pairs recently and returned them. They were elasticized, rough, tight and awful for me. I am an older woman and n... Read Moreeed much more comfort. I have been so disappointed because most of my wardrobe is from Patagonia. I live in Boulder CO and in this town Patagonia rules...I cannot recommend your underwear anymore, but more than that I feel I have lost an underwear friend.

Way too small - not for women with round butts
I am a consistent large in all Patagonia bottoms (my measurements are a curvy-fit 38-32-41). I had high hopes for these underwear as they're my favorite material for traveling/backpacking, but holy moly is this sizing weird. They run 2-3 inches smaller than advertised in the sizing chart at least, are they NOT built for women with round butts.... Read More they cut off at least ~2 inches below my hip. Returning both pairs I purchased and would not recommend for women with my measurements/curves.
The pants seemed small, but I find that they are very comfortable with active wear and move around much less than pants I've been wearing. It is early in my experience, but so far, so good.
I love the design and fit of the Active Hipster, the perfect underwear that I can wear XC and BC skiing, whether on my own adventures or teaching kids of all ages. Quick-drying, never riding up or slipping down, they are the longest lasting underwear I have ever owned!
The only reason I didnt give these 5 stars is the crazy long multi-layer tag!! Why does a pair of underwear need 3 tags that are 2 inches long?? Otherwise I love them. They fit great and after removing the tags I forget Im wearing anything!
We appreciate your feedback, Deanna! Happy to hear you love the product, but our designers will take note of the tag issue. Thanks for submitting a review!

My favorite underwear
These are my favorite underwear. They last long, they hug the curves, and don't creep up into the crack. Highly recommended.
I am an active person. From the work that I do to the after hours playtime... I am loving these Patagonia Seamless Panties. I have a bit of a booty so the Medium gives me a cute, cheeky fit and holds me tight without it wearing me down. As in, I like being able to wear my underwear and not notice them! These are the best Patagonia under-roos that I... Read More enjoy wearing on the daily!
I still have Patagonia undies that are 15+ years old. They are the greatest! Somewhere along the way they got off track & quality really declined. Im excited with this purchase. They fit great & the Patagonia quality we love seems to be back!! Time will tell.
I was gifted a pair of these underwear 3 years ago. I have since splurged on 3 more pairs and was given another. I challenge anyone to tell which pair is older than the other. They fit great, don't ride up, wash like a dream (I air dry) and make me feel younger than my 65 years. Who wants old lady panties?
I love Patagonia underwear. I would love them better if they ditched the sewn-in tag. I bought a pair several years ago and they didn't have the tag. I cut the tag out, but you really can't get it all the way out without cutting the fabric. Love them, but ditch the sewn-in tag.
I'm a big fan of all of Patagonia's panties, and these are no exception. They work great for casual wear, running, climbing, you name it. I own another pair of this style, and while they are both XS, this particular pair (the light blue with floral) is a tad smaller. It still fits well, but I do notice a slight difference between this and... Read More a pair that I purchased about 18 months ago.
Ive worn the active briefs and hipsters for over 15 years. I have pairs still from 10 years ago. The last 3 years not so much. They last one year now, consistently break at the waistband threading, the new material is not as thick and durable as the old material. BOOO Patagonia! This is not sustainable to replace clothing annually

Also, no wedgies!
I've been wearing the active hipsters for years and they have generally held up pretty well for a two to three years at least. the last few pairs i purchased have lasted less than a year. the waistbands are stretching out in strange ways that i've not seen in prior years' models. i love the fit of these, and am so disappointed they a...

I own the Active Hipster and the Barely Thong. I haven't tried the Active Bikini. Despite the reviews, I am really happy with the Active Hipster - sizing, fit, material, weight and overall feel. They are great as active undies when skiing, hiking, running etc. Patagonia - keep on making these please! And would love to see other colors!
I know other reviewers voiced concern about changes to the fit of these activewear hipsters. If there were problems, they have been solved. I love the broad band at the top &the fit feels right.

Returned it - the tag is obnoxious
I love the design and was looking forward to receiving the same product I had ordered last year. They seem to have changed things around, and now not only use a thinner fabric, but they placed a large tag in the stitch line. It used to be tagless. Ended up returning it
Comfortable and stays in place. Slides over my clothes easily, so basically these are perfect. I like black because it is less noticeable when I change clothes, but black always sells out!

Finally found a pair that doesn't drive me crazy
Since I'm not a "thong" person, I've been trying to find a pair of underwear that I can wear casually and actively that are comfortable and don't ride up . This is the pair! I'll be loading up on these :)
Love these underwear. My only complaint is the label. It is difficult to cut to the seam and it is annoying. Would love it just imprinted into the clothing
No lines when active. Stays in place. Really nice quality fabric this year. Love the Brief but the hipster runs a great second. Quick dry. Nice wider waistband that lays flat. Stays out on the rear when moving too. Love the active line
I am disappointed w/this product. I have worn the Patagonia Hipster daily for years. Because they hold up so well, its been awhile since I have ordered any replacements, maybe 2-3 years. The size that I have worn has always been a Medium. When I ordered 2 mediums, they were way too small. I had to exchange for a large. Even that is a little snug so... Read More potentially, next time I would order an Xlarge to see if that fits more comfortably. Im 52 and weigh 110 lbs., so an XLarge?? Really??

Frankly, although I am a reliable Patagonia customer, Im probably done w/this Hipster product. So, there you go.

My faves
I've been wearing Patagonia undies for years. After a few years I find the stitching tends to wear out where I grab the on the sides and pull them up, but overall I think they are worth the cost and hold up pretty well. These are the only ones I will wear anymore. The fit is perfect for me. They don't ride up and I barely notice them. I h... Read Moreave tried the other styles and don't like them as much. For me the active hipster is the way to go. 100%
The quality isn't worth the money anymore. I bought a few pairs 10 years ago and they are just wearing out. I bought a few pairs over the last 3 years and have thrown them out because of holes and poor quality. What's the deal? Why is the product getting worse over time?
I am curious how the regular Active Briefs compare (to the Active Hipster Briefs I bought) - these sit fairly high (not low at the hips despite the name?) and the cut is not high up the leg. The back is FULL coverage. More than I thought it would be. But for perfect-fitting, full coverage undies for active or casual use - these are high quality mat... Read Moreching the price. They are thicker than I expected too. I thought they would be thin and sheer, but are a lot more robust - which is good! I had zero problems with the tags. Take a pair of sharp (fabric, if you have) scissors, cut carefully as close to stitching as possible. And then gently pull to remove the remaining portion. They are tear-away tags - you just gotta be careful removing them. I wouldn't just yank and tear away the tag. Great undies!
Love the feel and fit of these underwear, perhaps I am doing something wrong because the tags are not fun. This is my second batch of this great product.

Tags Tags Tags - Great fit and great product
I love this product except for the 2 plastic like tags I had to partially remove - which leads to my issue. The 2 plastic like tags on the left back inside are sewn into this lovely garment. You cannot remove the entire tag- Why? The plastic like tag remnants poke me with any movement. The logo is pressed on vs. a tag - Why the 2 plastic like tags?... Read More If you can make this item without the Plastic like tags I would buy many more and give 5 stars.
Followed the size guide for a perfect fit. Super comfortable. Completely non-binding, no VPL. Toss in the wash with similar fabrics, line dries quickly. No snagging. Backpack ready, wear one wash one, 2 pair is all you need.
Agree w other reviews that the fabric in 2020 is different than in the past. I prefer the old fabric but this version breathes well. I was able to completely remove the tag without damaging the stitching. This cut hits me in an odd place and I prefer the bikini cut. I wouldnt mind a higher waist version either.
I have a dozen pairs purchased a long time ago, the most comfortable underwear I've ever owned. They are starting to show some wear so bought two new pairs. Fit has changed, they creep up in the back and are lower waisted than before. Not comfortable. I'd return them but I've already washed them.
My oldest pairs are several years old and have outlasted ALL my other underwear!!! Ive replaced my old, other undies with these because these dont tear, run, stretch, or wear out for years!!!
I love Patagonia. I love the company; I love the products; I love the philosophy behind everything they do and make. But PLEASE, Patagonia, I beg you. STOP sewing labels into your underwear!! They cannot be entirely removed because they are sewn straight into the band, remove the thread from the label and you remove the thread from the band. Cuttin...

Hiking Undies
I'm not familiar with the "old version" people keep referring to, so I'm quite pleased with these! Fit great, felt "clean" for 13 hours of hiking!
I've been buying this style of underwear for years and LOVE IT but the style/fit recently changed to be a tiny piece of underwear with little coverage. Please bring the old fit back!
Hi there, we're sorry to hear that you're unhappy with the coverage of our Women's Active Hipster. If you are looking for a something with more coverage, check out our Patagonia Women's Active Briefs, https://www.patagonia.com/product/womens-active-briefs-underwear/32396.html?dwvar_32396_color=SSPP&cgid=womens-socks-underwear-underwear#tile-2=&start=1&sz=24.
Not as durable as before, but still the best-fitting undies
I have to agree with Chelsea L's review below. I went through the process of ordering my normal size, finding out it was way too small, and then ordering the next size up. Although I lament that the undies are not as durable as the previous iterations (I've been ordering this style the last 15 years), I appreciate that they're made o... Read Moref recycled materials.
The sizing is still good (order up!), the material still wicks well, and they still stay in place (order up!).
Like you, I've been wearing the old style geo-pattern Patagonia undies for a decade. Like you, I've read the scary reviews the rest of the internet has posted. UNLIKE THEM: I have nothing but good things to say about these undies, with one caveat.
yes!! The fabric is different. That's because it's recycled now. THAT'S GRE... Read MoreAT! It just means they aren't identical.
The first pair that I purchased, I got in the same size as my old style undies. XS. This pair was...uncomfortable, like everyone says here. It rides up! I get wedgies! The gusset doesn't cover my, uh, stuff!
BUT WAIT: These are things you would say about a piece of clothing you bought in the wrong size....so I got a pair in the next size up to see if that made a difference. Let's face it, my old ones are probably stretched out from being worn for a literal decade, and I don't wear the same size of anything else from 10 years ago.
WOW CAN YOU BELIEVE IT THEY FIT NOW. They stay in place in my most grueling workouts, they cover everything properly, and the new slightly wider waistband is actually an improvement.
yes! The fabric is different. It's not quite as lightweight, but I still don't notice I have them on.
yes! You have to pull the tag and accompanying stitches out. my god, I can't imagine wearing them with that 3 inch long piece of paper in there. it's obviously made in such a way that you'll know to remove it.
Anyhow, be brave. Try the new version. Get a size up from your old ones. Even with the changes, they are STILL better than any other underpants you can buy. Trust me--I'VE TRIED ALL OF THEM.
I’m jumping in here with my review to say the newer generations of this under garment doesn’t hold up very well. I don’t mind spending good money for underwear, but when I do I expect it to outlast its competitors. Sadly, these don’t anymore.

Material is ok but as mentioned the fit is not great. Can Patagonia make boy/boxer short style of these? Wouyld prevent the 'wedgie/riding up'?
Boy shorts please!
I have been wearing these for more than a decade, but over the last 5 years the sizing has shrunk (I promise I didn’t gain weight, I’m pretty consistent) and the fabric has gotten cheep and flimsy.

These used to be the best underwear made! I had purchased these for years. Now as many others have said they come apart or wear out in a matter of months. Even though I never put them in the dryer. Also the fit has changed. Now they ride up and are not as seamless as the previous style because they have made the waist band narrower. And the materia... Read Morel is much thinner.

I'm still wearing active hipsters from 2014 that I've sewn back together. Yes, I know I can warranty them, but the fit isn't the same, so there's no point. The new cut is tighter and gives me a wedgie. Read the reviews below Patagonia, you have a loyal following, just bring back what we loved! PLEEEAAASSSE!
Wow! The reviews I have been reading have been sadly so reaffirming.

Used to be that these were my go-underwear. Owned many over the years and they last and last, but over the past few years the quality has gone down the tubes.... I have to replace every year now because they stretch out. They are great-only for the first few months of ownership. I line dry all of my clothes, never use the dryer.
These are still mostly comfortable, but this style has changed over the years (and not for the better).

Breaks my heart, please bring back the quality underwear we know and miss.
I am 5'-2" and 115 lb and wear a size XS. I love these for every day wear, climbing, and yoga. However I hang dry these and after less than one year of use they are falling apart. The tag is huge and annoying.
I absolutely loved these underwear, until I washed them. They're really comfortable and great for working out/ hiking/ climbing, sweating in general. However, after a couple of washes they became threadbare in the crotch and the seam began to unravel around the top. Disappointing, particularly given the price.
I hiked the AT this past year and had a great time, the TAG tho is a whole other story. I cut it off and it still eritiated my skin, that did not go well with me because my pack would rub agients my back and it would make it worse. But the fabric is great and the elastic is too. the only thing the tag.
The older version w the wide band was so much better. Stayed up better. Flattered the female form better. These are terrible. I’m only rating them a 1 bc I can’t give a zero. Which sucks bc I love your company and continue to be a loyal customer of various items. Xo
Huge tag in the back is annoying. Wish they could just print their tags directly onto the fabric. Also, the fit seems a little different than their previous style. I bought these a few years ago and they were perfect. They're a little different now.
These underwear are great. I love the fabric,fit,and how they feel on my body.
I don't understand why there are big tags sewn into the waist band. After cutting the tag out,there is a little bit left which irritates my skin. These would be perfect without the tag. I feel a little redesign is necessary to eliminate the tag.
