Reddit mentions: The best boxer briefs for men

I've been trying all types of micromodal underwear. I bought all citizens, me undies, and some cheap ones from Amazon Lapasa Men's 4-Pack Boxer Briefs Micro Modal ULTRA SOFT Low Rise No-Fly Trunk M02 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01FEWD9RO/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apap_MJJL2tNnFhsKq

In terms of comfort all citizens - me undies - cheap Amazon one from best to worst. I really like the elastic around the thighs so they don't round up. The medium in all citizens is a little bigger than me undies but fits well. I'm a size 31 waist. The meundies medium are tighter fitting but still a medium. Cheap Amazon ones the medium is like a small and rides up.

In terms of style meundies- all citizens, cheap Amazon one. I got the cheetah print ones and am in love with the style. They are bright and loud but are sexy and fun. The all citizens feels more like workout gear while meundies feels more sexy and playful. Yes I described these as sexy but don't we all went to look good in underwear.

I would say all citizens are good weekday underwear where meundies is good if you are going to get someone that will see you in undies.

I do want to point out r/onebag (even if you don't do just one bag) has a lot of good information. I've found Eagle Creek compressible packing cubes help keep bulk down on most items, namely clothing. I use a down puffy that packs to nothing and a few underlayers designed for snowboarding for colder weather. Both take up little space and accomplish climate versatility.

Eagle Creek also makes a garment sleeve but I've not used it, instead I just use wrinkle free button ups from Rohan and roll them. One great tip I use is to wear your dressier clothes while flying so you can avoid packing them all together. This takes the complication out of keeping business attire wrinkle free during the flight there and back. Be sure not to overpack things that can be picked up there for cheap, most of these fall into the toiletry department.

(I'm male so this may not be directly actionable for everyone, but materials may be useful*) I have 5 undershirts - the ones in heather gray are a poly blend, two wrinkle free button ups, one pair of outlier slim dungarees, one pair of western rise evolution pant, 7 pairs of synthetic reebok boxer briefs, 3 pairs of darn tough merino racer socks (which get washed by hand), 2x long sleeve base layer for both bottom and top (no link, off brand), down puffy (no link, discontinued), one heather gray uniqlo airism hoodie, and a cheap pair of synthetic shorts for the gym. Most of the stuff gets put into compression cubes or more rarely ranger rolled. It all packs down extremely well.

I also pack a laptop (Asus C302) and some of that dongle life (USB-C). I'm sure I'm missing more than a few things but my goal really isn't to provide a complete packout breakdown, just get some ideas out there for minimal packing/living. It's been a few months since I've packed my belongings into my 30l backpack and took a plane so my memory is a bit hazy but I could do it now if I wanted because I haven't increased/changed my belongings much since.

As a general rule I try to avoid bulky cotton stuff as much as possible and just go with synthetic or merino wool, stuff that will pack down easy. Freezer/gallon ziplock bags can make great compressible organizers if you're looking to save some money. The corners can be reinforced by clear packing tape, with the air pushed out for clothing as well. This is my razor of choice, as it's super light and you can pick up the batteries anywhere in the world.

Champion makes a "long" boxer brief thats like under armour but much less expensive. I honestly prefer them over under armour or nike. They definitely dont bunch up, have room in the crotch, and seem well made. I bought a ton of them after I realized how much I liked them. Amazon sells them here. They sell them under the Champion "Tech" line. There's other long underwear they make but the tech line specifically is what I'm referring too. The other types from champion outside of the tech line dont fit the same.

• These are inexpensive, pack of 3, if you zoom in you can see the seams are out of the way. They're fairly soft. However, they don't keep you quite as "dry/cool" due to being 50% cotton, and they lose their shape/elasticity slightly over time.
  
  
• This is 92% polyester 8% spandex, it holds it shape perfectly and will be very cool/dry. However, it does have a middle-seam, but personally I don't find it uncomfortable. That might vary person-to-person. Slightly more expensive, only 1-pair.
  
  
• This is 91% polyamide/nylon, 9% spandex. It will keep you dry/cool, but unlike the 92% polyester above, it will feel much softer than any other blend. Holds its shape perfectly. These types cost more because they feel softer and they look sexier. The nylon/spandex types are more skin-tighter. But if that sort of stuff doesn't matter to you then don't bother I guess.
  
  
• This is much like the above, modal/lycra is nylon/spandex. The one pair that I have doesn't hold its shape quite so much but it's a looser fit. It feels extremely soft, but there is a seam. Causes no problems for me, though. But I don't like the waistband logo, so I do in fact prefer the above, because you can cut off the Jockey tag and there's no logo anymore.
  
  I'd start by solving your seam-chafing problem and go from there. It's hard to say for other underwear because most trunks/boxer briefs do in fact have the mid-seam, but the difference is that they do a much better job of supporting your junk and keeping it in place, so less movement= less chafe. And regardless of seams or not, they will probably feel more comfortable so long as you pick good stuff.
  
  Obviously you could spend more time shopping about, but those I personally own and like. But no two dicks are the same. Everyone should be picky about their underwear. But, I'd go with #1 since you're used to boxer shorts.

Same thing was happening to me. I'm still trying various brands but so far Exofficio and Saxx have worked out well.

The Exofficio (92% Nylon/8% Lycra) I like best and they breathe really well. I like Saxx (95% Cotton/5% Spandex) because they feel soft and comfortable but they have a thick waist band that I don't care for.

I recently tried Champion (58% Cotton/37% Polyester/5% Spandex) since it popped up on Amazon. They seem to work well but run small in the ass area. I may try a large to see. I went with a medium based on their size chart. Potential is there so I'm hopeful.

There are cocktails and I think I remember there being marg/daquiri-type drinks available but I'm not 100% sure on it. I usually stick to the red bull buckets ($12, I think). A beer is like $6-7 for a bud light/corona, $9-10 for fancier stuff. Mixed drinks run $8-10ish.

If you want to save some money and have a bit more flexibility with drinks, invest in some collapsible flasks and stash briefs. You'll be a hero to everyone in your group.

I've heard these underwear are incredible in terms of support. My friend got em and said they're the best underwear he's ever bought. Lmk if end up trying them out! Otherwise yea maybe a jockstrap. Congrats on losi g weight! I'm getting into climbing myself right now, and I hope to lose lots of weight too!

Separatec Men's 3 Pack Sport Performance Dual Pouch Boxer Briefs Underwear(L,Black/Dark Gray/Maroon) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B078WT2HP8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_p1lFDb14DWDK2

A "cheap" but supportive sports bra from Marshalls costs $20.

This link for sports bras on Amazon range $9-$30. They appear to be reasonably supportive.

This one looks like a very nice daily wear type and it ranges from $13 to $58.

Even if you find a great bra for something like $10 you still have to remember that it's underwear that "has" to be worn every day. So you either end up having a ton of them (which is expensive) or wearing the same ones frequently (which means replacing it often which is expensive.)

Compare to the price of a pair of underwear. This five pack of men's underwear ranges from $15-$39. That $3-$8.50.

*I'm not responding to any more of you. Appreciate the work I did to provide reasonable price numbers or fuck off. If you think it's not fair to compare to the price of a bra to men's underwear, I repeat: fuck off. If you wear only underwear then fuck off for trying to tell me how to explain the price of bras. :)

AIRism underwear is honestly not that great in my experiece, it's OK as long as you can get it super cheap. If you have access to underwear that is micro modal like these or these by ExOfficio, they are much more comfortable. AIRism boxer briefs are mostly polyester which doesn't breathe as well imo.

Bro, I am also a sz 36 waist and I am pretty picky about my underwear. I prefer boxer briefs but every kind I bought either would fall down during the day, or would squeeze too tight in certain areas etc.
 
Finally I found these Reebok spandex boxer briefs in a 3-pack and they are absolutely perfect. I went back and bought 5 more packs of them, and I've been wearing them for like 3 years now. Not a single rip or sign of wear at all.
 
Here they are on Amazon if you want to give them a try. I am genuinely impressed with them and I found that anything cheaper really sucked, so they're worth the money IMO.

Highly Recommend this product. I've never once had any issues with them feeling up my nut sack area. Good luck my friend!!

These work really well. I don’t glove but I have friends who do and they use these to sneak things in. They also work great for sneaking other things in!

For a less expensive (about $9-12 a pair), but still high-quality and long lasting underwear I go with Champion Men's Tech Performance Boxer Briefs: Normal or Long. I've got about 10 pairs of these now, with the oldest pairs being worn about once a week for a year and a half now without showing any signs of giving out soon.

edit: Also, incredibly good for wearing for sports or extended hikes with no chance of chaffing.

I would recommend a pair of lightweight merino wool boxers if you prefer natural fibers or the SAXX kinetics are also a great option for synthetic fabrics. I have used both and they both have there ideal uses. I have no experience with female style underwear so i cant't offer any personal advice.

Merino Wool Boxers

SAXX

Champion has their Tech Performance boxer/briefs that are a good knockoff of the under armour. I own a few pair and can recommend them. You can usually find them around $10. Just read the materials and make sure its not one of their styles with cotton. http://www.amazon.com/Champion-Mens-Performance-Boxer-Brief/dp/B006LHMA1S

You can get these for $10 per pair at Target and other local sources and for the price, I think they are a better value. They have been wearing very well for me for over a year now. I have both and think they are 95% as good as the Ex Officios.

To their comfort/quality—when I travel, I am not really partial to one or the other, and I usually have a sink-laundry day like others mention here. They both dry quick and wear fine in hot weather. I have some Under Armor and hate them as they don't breathe for shit.

I enjoy these: Champion Boxer Briefs Smart Temp. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00EZVLS56/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_hZEKxbG7EHZ3M

What @harrybulsach said. They aren't going to watch you unless it's for ODOT or probation, in which case good look. If not, just grab yourself one of these guys:

If you're hoping to convince them to change the results, it's not gonna happen, sorry. They don't even test them, they just take said sample and send them off to the lab.

​

Hope this helps.

Moisture wicking, super thin boxer breifs. You can thank me later. I bought them for working out and they're pretty much my staple now.

These work great https://www.amazon.com/Separatec-Performance-Briefs-Underwear-Maroon/dp/B078WT2HP8/ref=sr_1_3?crid=135ZE3XD7PJEF&keywords=seperatec+mens+underwear&qid=1563895544&s=gateway&sprefix=seperat%2Caps%2C211&sr=8-3

There's a berries hammock and a barrier between the twig. Super comfy!

I bought these for my husband. I love them. He loves them. They're slightly overpriced but v sexy

Microfiber towel for quick drying. Honestly you don't need to dry yourself off if its hot, just squeegee the water off and air dry.

All your clothing should be that quick drying polyester. Even your underwear. These you can wash in your sink or when you take a shower, wring out, hang to dry. They sell packets of detergent just for this purpose

These are the underwear I mentioned. Great for wearing even under your swimsuit. They dry quickly

I also live in the California valley where it regularly get to be over 110 Fahrenheit during the summer. I definitely have something to contribute here - and hear me out here - merino wool socks and underwear. You might think wool?? That's HOT! That's the worst thing you could wear! Actually it depends on the kind of wool you're wearing. Plenty of people make old school wool clothes that are hot as fuck and only useable if you're in a snowy climate, but these days you can get things like "smart wool" and "darn tough" socks that are made of wool but don't feel any warmer than regular cotton. Wool is moisture wicking and odor absorbing so the swamp ass feeling you have at the end of a hot day wearing cotton underwear will be a thing of the past. You'll feel dry and smell free all day. They're much more costly than regular cotton undergarments but they're worth it! Just do yourself a favor and buy a single pair of hot weather merino wool boxer briefs on amazon or whatever (something like this) and tell me I'm wrong. All I own is merino wool underclothes now.

I have worn those Hanes boxer briefs for a few years. If you rotate between a few pair they should last you well over a year. I actually purchased 10 pair from Amazon a couple months back and I love them. I have tried a few other pairs other the years like Under Armor, Puma, Adidas ect but none feel as comfortable and fit my body as well.

A note on riding up ..I only have that issue with old underwear or if I try to throw jeans on after wearing them all day and sleeping in them. I imagine if I wore skinny jeans I would have a bigger issue with that.

Dude, boxer briefs. Best of both worlds. Highly recommend these ones.

CALVIN KLEIN | 2pk Boxer Briefs | $12.00

Click on "description" to see "modal/spandex". As far as I can tell, spandex = elastine, so the description seems similar to these CK Body Modal Stretch offered at Macy's or Amazon.

Don't want to start a new thread, but does anyone wear the Lapasa boxer briefs? I'd like room, but I'd like to not spend a months wages on it...

These ones, specifically

People still wear boxers? Acquire some boxer briefs my good man, I don't know how anyone can wear slim fitting pants with boxers.

Hanes Classic are decent and affordable. My only beef is that they tend to stretch out during the day and gradually morph into boxers, but to solve that you need something with elastane, and those usually run $20 a pair. Totally worth it in my opinion, but to each his own.

These work super well for me. I’ve never had any issues getting stuff in with these

Wear boxer briefs that have longer legs (almost down to the knee) and are made of a more "athletic" / spandex material.

I started wearing these a while back. Huge quality of life improvement, even if you aren't overweight.

Funny or not, I am still wearing these boxer briefs but the comments make it crystal clear it's inferior now. I can't find anything comfy these days. Help?

or any other underwear similar to that, its the only kind I will wear when I run. Adidas makes a cool climate one that is awesome too, but a little more pricy.

I really like these and ended up buying like 6 pairs.

also these seem legit that was posted in that thread: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06W2LJWRT/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_HD4ZBbTF6NJ9W

best price point is for the mediums

Calvin Klein Micro Modal Boxer Briefs are great.

Extra long boxer briefs for the win!

I bought a pair of these for hiking due to the rave reviews on Amazon but they pilled up and started fraying on the sides of the thighs after only a couple of washes. I still have them but I much prefer these as alternatives. They are cheaper, sturdier, have all the same wicking performance, and feel just nice.

I buy these glorious bastards and they are excellent. They tend to last through a intense year of running, biking and incredible sex before they get a hole in them, at which point I am like, "Whatever," and I toss those broke motherfuckers in the trash and buy another year's supply of underwear for $40 (2 packs).

Looking for a frugal alternative to these CK modal boxer briefs.

These get good reviews and are really affordable. but there are some complaints about a butt seam giving wedgies :-/

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01AA8Y8PY/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1482682250&sr=8-1&pi=SY200_QL40&keywords=modal%2Bboxer%2Bbriefs&dpPl=1&dpID=415yMUHuPhL&ref=plSrch&th=1&psc=1

And then there's meundies, if you guys can clue me in on these

https://www.meundies.com/

Or any other frugal option of course.

Thanks!

Are these the modal ones you recommend? https://www.amazon.com/Calvin-Klein-Underwear-Modal-Briefs/dp/B000FE98IG/ref=pd_sbs_193_3?_encoding=UTF8&refRID=6JJ7TCA3VDKC1C0KTCZ0

Calvin Klein Modal Boxer Brief Ultra Soft - 3 Pack (Medium, Black-Dark Gray) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06W2LJWRT/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_HD4ZBbTF6NJ9W

Looks like $32 on Amazon for 3 pairs (at least for M). Not sure if these are the same blend ratios though.

These Champion boxer briefs are really supportive and they don't stretch out. You can get them at Target. You could also wear a ManHood to prevent chafing.

Just FYI, I just picked up some Modal underwear from Amazon for cheaper (3-packs though). Also if you have a Century 21 near you it is/was $13/pair.

+1 for ExOfficio boxer briefs. I also like wearing these Hanes boxer briefs.

Here are two boxer-brief options. Hanes are no good in comparison due to the stretching.

1. ExOfficio (great if you're not worried about style)
   
2. Calvin Klein

I swear I thought I checked thoroughly to make sure all sizes in black were 8.99. Sorry about that. At the time I'm posting this, Dylan Red, Manic Red, and Monument (Grey) are 8.99 in large boxer briefs. This link will show you the lowest price for every color in large.

You gotta get these, man. Made by IHeartRaves/Emazing. I got them for EDCO last year and they've been a game changer since. In go my medication and gloves, and yes, my Clif bars and Blow Pops and the only shit I worry about is then rattling together because there's so much space.
