I got these Hanes x-temp things that several years ago that were the best I’d ever had, but they’ve changed them up so they’re mostly plasticy now.
it’s expensive buying different brands to find when you like, what have you all found?
I like Saxx, especially when I’m out running or doing yard work. Breathable, got a ball pouch, stops the thighs chafing.
Saxx is the best. Expensive, but perfect
David archy. I get them on Amazon. I find them more comfortable than saxx.
I’ve really enjoyed the Uniqlo AIRism line. Only downside is that the regular length ones can ride up the leg a bit, but not the low-rise ones. They’re missing the ball pouches that some other brands have but for me it’s been fine. Nice balance between affordable and comfortable.
For day in, day out boxer briefs I go with Gildan. Especially for the price. I keep some Calvin Klein on hand because I like to feel fancy sometimes. But I will readily recommend the Gildan. I have big thighs and they will stretch by the end of the day but the elastic does its job until I take them off.
I just bought two pairs of Pair of Thieves brand boxer briefs at target with the pouch. I bought them specifically to wear on a long flight. It’s more comfortable than I expected, and does make a difference on warm days. Everything gets a little separation and some air-flow. They are more expensive, so I reserve them for special occasions.
I have some jogger/pajama pants by them and they are really comfy.
Hanes tighty whiteys
Nice try, Mom
Armachillo from Duluth Trading Co. A bit too tight around the waist after I gained about 10lbs for a medium, but best I’ve owned so far. They stay up, elastic doesn’t wear out, the colors don’t fade, and they don’t trap a ton of heat.
Get the ones with “the bullpen”. It’s a layer to keep your junk from sticking to your thigh. It’s pretty great.
I got some Nike dri fit in both cotton and the wicking ones and they are the best boxers I’ve worn in a long time
Do you get Schiesser in the US? They aren’t cheap, a pack of 3 is like $50, but the 100% cotton ones are so amazing, I’ll never wear anything else ever again.
I think the ball pouch is the biggest improvement in underwear since boxer briefs. The only problem is that they don’t seem to make a cotton version.
I’m not currently in the market, but if anyone makes cotton boxer briefs with a ball pouch, with a fly, I’d replace all my underwear tomorrow.
Oof.
That would be an expensive dozen.
Thanks, though. I’ll definitely give them a shot.
They are indeed unfortunately expensive. I’d start with one and if they’re as perfect as you’re looking for, just do the slow replacement. I just buy one every time an existing pair of old undies starts getting too old and eventually you are all set.
dude, right? for the rest of my body I’ve found things more comfortable than cotton, but there’s nothing better than cotton for a ball pouch. everybody’s out here cranking out rayon and polyester
I bought a couple 6 packs of champion boxer briefs from Costco over a year ago and they are great. So great I got some more.
I think $15, moisture wicking, they stay tight and not loose.
do you sweat a lot? I’m in the fucking Everglades
It keeps me dry where I need to be dry, if that’s what you’re asking 😂
okay good. it doesn’t matter if the briefs can keep my balls off my leg if it can’t keep my balls off my balls
Awhile back I tried out MeUndies, and since then all my socks, underwear are from them.
I also bought a housecoat, some pants, shirts, etc.
I own ferrets and their claws are sharp as shit, they have torn up many of my shorts, chewed holes in sleeves, etc.
They have not put a single dent in my MeUndies clothes. I dunno what sorta Kevlar shit they make their stuff outta but it’s pretty much indestructible, yet also comfortable and soft.
Shipping can take awhile though, so keep that in mind.
really? back in the day they were using modal which is why I avoided them. it’s comfortable as shit, but they fall apart
I can confirm their stuff is orders of magnitude more durable than any other brand I’ve tried.
I have (had) a bad problem with my toenails shredding my socks, no issue with MeUndies stuff.
I also have a treadmill standing desk and my socks are outlasting my running shoes sole.
Tip: if you buy from Gap, they can be comfortable — but the waistband tends to be mis-sized. Try ordering one size larger.l then you normally would.
All citizens is amazing if you live in a hot climate and are well endowed. I’ve really enjoyed mine, and they have breathable mesh EVERYWHERE that’s made them amazing for this incredibly hot summer. My balls are never swampy wearing them. They’re also a pouch based underwear which my doctor recommended to me after having some issues around my balls with stress tension.
They have great colors, and they’re super soft and they stay in place with this weird thigh band thing. I love them and after buying a test pair bought like 12 more for my whole wardrobe. Cotton was out of the question due to how much it creates that swamp feeling. Paired with linen shorts or linen pants and I can bear the Cali Valley heat a bit more.
what is that about stress tension affecting your balls?
Gonna second the Pair of Thieves suggestion.
Also, Skull and Bones stuff is really nice, especially if you want something that looks good in front of a partner. Be aware that their lace stuff runs a little small and you probably want to go one size up.
