20 Best Pound For Pound Boxers Right Now (2023 Updated)

Excellent quality table cloths and superior service. I received these in 3 days from the time I placed the original order. Packaging was exceptional and the table cloths were absolutely beautiful. They had a really pretty sheen and were thick.

You could not see through them. I highly recommend this company and will order again in the future.

Cute and funny. The material is a little on the thin side so definitely allows the breeze through and through. Very comfortable. No problems with wearing them I would say when washing them don’t wash with white as the colors will wash on to those.

I read pretty much every review I could on the Separatec website, and I could only find the answers to some of my questions. So, for others, I am going to try to answer those unexplained questions here.

Q: Will your average flaccid size fall out of the front pouch? A: I do physical work all day: bending over, sitting down, and working at dirt level on my knees in landscaping, and I just don’t ever fall out.

I think that you would have to be clearly on the small end of the spectrum to fall out. The design of the pouch lines up well with your anatomy. Q: What does Functional Fly mean? Is there a fly on the original design, or do you have to pull down the elastic waist band? A: There is a fly on the original-design models.

In essence, it is a little foldover flap at the bottom of the front pouch that you have to flip open, reach in, and pull your tool out by the tip. This in my opinion is the only drawback to the original design.

Frankly, as a landscaper my hands are covered in dirt most of the time. It is too complicated opening the flap, reaching in and pulling out the tip with dirt on your fingers, not to mention germs from door handles, ATMs, etc.

And, it is a hassle, and sometimes impossible, to wash your hands BEFORE taking a leak. Pulling down the elastic waist band is not a real option either. With the elastic band method you simply cannot get your tool back in the right pouch without excessive, untoward, time-consuming handling at the urinal.

Next pair, I am ordering one of the Functional Fly models. Q: How difficult is it to get the different components of your package into the proper position at the beginning of the day, or after a dump? A.

Easy. Just lean back as you are pulling the Separatecs on. Everything slides right into the proper place, no handling required. They are very well designed to sync with your anatomy. I recommend Separatec to keep you separated, and as dry as possible, in hot humid summer work outdoors.

Ive tried, Separatec, SAXX, Hanes, and Sheaths. The modial or whatever fabric its called, is great. These, and the Sheaths are diff designs. Similar but the Sheaths feel and seem designed slightly better.

IMHO. Mainly because it actually has a real pocket for your bat and one seperate for the boys. Hanes and SAXX r the same. They dont have pockets. Just keeps them from sliding too far and thats about it.

Its ok, but way cheaper design. Anyways, 4 stars. Overall really nice. Cotton ones arent bad either but not as good as the quickdri fabric. Depending on preference, you may like these better. I dont.

Honestly a really good product so far. Had for like a month. Whether ur “big” or not, you should be okay. They stretch nicely. Fair warning now, your “boys” may slip out. Like, quite easily. Its a weird design, clever, but still not as great as Sheaths.

Thats my opinion. Id advise buying 1 pair from each. Just to see. Also, SAXX has a better fabric, I feel, more so than Hanes. At least the ones I tried. To summarize it, I really dont think u can go wrong with these.

All it comes down to is preference.

Been using Separatec for a couple of years now and have no intention of going back to a traditional design. Agree with several other buyers that you may be able to go a size lower than other designs.

The modal had plenty of give, and tightness comes across thighs before engaging the waist. Indeed the waistband is probably the least snug of any I’ve tried before, but not in a too loose, not fitting way.

Just really comfortable with a decent grip. Not much to add on the pouches, as usual supportive and incredibly comfortable. Plenty of room for all cargo without feeling like swimming in them. I’ve read others saying the fabric gave out quickly to become boxer shorts.

I’m several washes in and that hasn’t been the case for me, though if you’re used to traditional elastic feel on all edges, this will feel “loose” by comparison. Really happy with the purchase.

I am a big fan of 2undr underwear and thought I would try and order some for my son who is 10 years old. I didn’t know if I would pick the XS or the Small size for him, but decided to pick the small size.

I was disappointed to learn that the underwear doesn’t fit my son well. I wrote to the company and they responded by saying in part: “We currently don’t make 2UNDR for children , but our XS and Small does fit some kids around the ages of 10+.

” They also said the following: “The design of 2UNDR with the Joey Pouch is intended for men , who are looking for a product that helps eliminate skin on skin contact between their most valuable assets and their legs , the idea is to lift and separate.

Majority of adolescents don’t have a need for a pouch style underwear , but some do , so we do have some of our styles in XS , but with the average waist size running roughly a size small now in North America , majority of our styles run S-5XL.

” I would want to try the XS for my son, but I feel that he would grow out of it. In the end, I decided that 2undr is truly a men’s underwear and not meant for kids. If you are shopping for kids, pick something else.

If you are shopping for adult men, I fully recommend 2undr.

First I will say that I have several of the swing shift pairs from 2undr, sized Medium and they are perfect! Quickly bought more since they became my favorite daily go-to’s. I soon after tried these, although a bit hesitant because of the cost.

I have tried MANY athletic underwear (adidas, UA, etc. ), but none of the others got the ‘package’ right, thus I was so incredibly hopeful for 2undr’s power shift. Bought the medium. What I loved: fabric, swass panel, ‘package construction’, waistband quality.

What I found less than desireable: the overall fit around the top. What I mean is that everything else fits well but it seems like there is an extra inch of fabric. If the waist band simply was placed lower then this underwear would be a 5 star.

I say this because once I tucked that amount of fabric under my waist band and brought it down to where all other athletic underwear sits (and where the medium swing shift sits), it was perfect (although it doesn’t stay once you move, of course).

All other athletic underwear does not come up this high. Disclaimer: I am a very athletic fit, triatholon-style body (5’11” 155lbs). Maybe I should size down to a small? But the item descriptions report this is compression but I can’t say I feel a whole lot of compression.

But the fit does seem good aside from the top, plus I’m definitely a medium in the swing shift. Again, maybe this issue would be solved with sizing down for very athletic fits, but I’m hesitant to try that for the price point and I like the “package” room.

Maybe this would be a negligent issue for someone else, but I really want to love these because everything else is perfect! Overall 2undr really does a great job with their products.

I thought I would try pouch underwear, as that seems to be the latest trend and I was already wearing boxer briefs and looking for something better. Got these after a look at the various brands of pouch underwear and their customer reviews.

2UNDR had a lot of positive reviews, the Swing Shift Boxer Briefs had a fly as well as a soft fabric, so I got some to try out. They take some time to get used to and how they feel compared to non-pouch underwear.

They do provide good support and ventilation, so there’s no need for adjustments throughout the day. The model fabric is very comfortable and they run true to size. We wash them on delicate and dry on low heat, so we’ll see how the fabric lasts over time.

Overall I would say that if you’re looking for more comfortable underwear that feels good and is never a distraction to your day, give these a try.

I bought 2 pairs of the sporty period high waisted panties and 2 of the light period high waisted panties several months ago. They where only alright, not my favorites and I don’t reach for them often.

I noticed these and bought them during the mothers day sale when they where half off, thinking they might be nice to sleep in. Im on my first cycle in them and holy cow!! They’re amazing! I slept in them and felt so snuggly and comfortable and felt secure in them all night! Where the absolorbant layer in the panties is a little short for my comfort, these are the ideal length and where I find the bulk in the panties uncomfortable due to the short length of it and they don’t feel as secure due to the extreme stretch in the light panties, these are just a dream come true! The bulk of the boxer’s absorbent layer is perfectly placed and the boxers are snug and secure without cutting in anywhere or being hot or uncomfortable! I can’t say enough good things about them! I washed them and have worn them under shorts, skirts, dresses, and to work out in and have nebver felt more comfortable free bleeding! The one thing I would really wish to see, is maybe a boxer variation in light period as well! Thank you, Period.

Co!.

I was VERY pleasantly surprised when I tried these out for my period! My flow is usually very heavy for the first two days, and then very light for the next 3-7. I ended up purchasing the boxer, the sleeper, and the Sporty Bikini.

I usually wear bikini/hipster styles, but I wanted things that were extra comfortable during my time of the month. Everything went very smoothly! Absolutely ZERO worry about leakage or overall discomfort.

Cleaning was a process that I had to get used to, but the overall cleaning was very easy; I just rinsed the underwear out for a few minutes as instructed and wrung out any blood/water, and then I made sure to disinfect the sink afterwards since I was dealing with blood.

But after that, I just needed to throw them in the washing machine! My main question now involves how these hold up in the long run, but they absolutely do their job and I can’t wait to purchase more!.

While 2undr is easily my and several friends underwear of choice. We agree the Swing shift is the most versatile of all the 2undr line. It can be comfortably worn with just about anything and for any activity, from casual wear to work out or even daily office wear.

While often the patterns can be fun the grey with blue trim is my favorite for more daily wear like under office wear. They hold up well for very long days that turn into nights and are very comfortable, also work great when I forget to bring a power shift 2undr for the gym.

Rather it be daily wear at the office, weekends, or gym or work out use some of the things I really like include the general comfort, the legs don’t roll up and the band stays in place. While this is a a bit of a sensitive area for guys not all pouch underwear is created equal or easy to use, the 2undr swing shift has the ideal Joey pouch, very easy to use and makes a big difference in all day wear as well as work out.

After some looking around for “The Pair” of perfect underwear I came across 2undr. So thats good news for you, you’ve got some good word of mouth already. Unfortunately the pouch didn’t quite work for me as well as something like saxx.

I’m not sure if my balls sit high but I need to hike the underwear up pretty high to get the pouch underband below everything. The underwear fit well elsewhere, just seems like extra steps to get the junk situated and a bit awkward to hike them so high.

They look pretty good, but going for a black out pair I think the two front tags could go away, and the white front stiching could could go darker grey or black. I like the subtle black print on the banding.

I can tell the company values design and good quality underwear so cheers to that.

I’m a God fearing, Bill of Rights loving American. Being born in the USA and being married to my gorgeous wife is better than winning any lottery. Life is good and I didn’t know how it could get any better.

I thought I had it all, but then I put both legs into these undies, pulled them up, and MY GOODNESS! I’ve been wearing underwear for the better part of 34 years I have NEVER worn something as awesome as these boxer briefs.

The material is soft, yet sturdy. The elastic hugs you tight, but doesn’t smother you like that ex-gf from high school. The ball-hammocks…man those ball-hammocks. They give the family jewels better support than your dog gives you after losing that 10-point buck in the trees.

I’m not a man of many regrets. In fact, not too long ago it wasn’t too far-fetched to say that I didn’t have any. However, after putting on these bad boys I can say I have one. My only regret in life is not having worn these undies sooner in life.

May the Lord forgive me for that and may He forever bless my wife for buying me my first pair. Get some!!.

He likes the fabric, and the hammock, but misses the pocket slot typical men’s underwear possesses, and he wasn’t a big fan of the price for a single pair. If you could manage to achieve the slot pocket so he doesn’t have to drop his drawers to pee, and make the price more reasonable, he would likely get more.

He has worn them often since I purchased them, so the good impression is there, he just isn’t a fan of having to pull them down all the time. Unsure if installing the slot pocket would cause a malfunction with the hammock or not, but I’d be very interested if you would consider creating a line with that option.

These are very soft and comfy, with a good fit and a heavier and more heavenly feel than the competition. One star off because a) they’re a wee bit pricey and b) the ball hammock is merely decorative, as far as I can tell.

A functional hammock would hang front to back, but of course who needs a perineal hammock (good band name, though. ) As it is, it’s akin to a hammock hanging on a wall, and who can get in one of those? And if I could get in, I’d fall out anyway because my nuts are too big for it.

I’ll prolly still buy another pair or two, though.

These boxers have significantly dropped in quality the past couple of years. I purchased RP boxer briefs a couple years back and they were so insanely comfortable- these are significantly less soft and comfortable than they used to be.

The worst part and main thing I want to share is the waistband, which rolls and creases and just feels bad. NOTE: You don’t notice this right off the bat- you don’t notice it until you’ve actually worn them around and by that time it is too late to return.

Now I’m stuck with these. The only reason I didn’t give these a 1 star is because I actually love the cut of these. Just wish the waistband and material were better.

Love the Smith cotton boxer briefs. They just fit good and don’t stretch out throughout the day like other brands. Just the right mix of cotton and whatever else it is. I love the model too, super soft and comfy.

But the cotton smith ones are my go to for all day comfort. Even starting getting them for my son. Fit pretty true to size. I’m a 32-33 waist and mediums fit great.

My husband absolutely loves all of the richer poorer boxers. He has several pairs. But, unfortunately, yesterday he informed me that the waistband has started to make that sound where it is no longer elastic and totally stretches.

Not very happy consifmdering they are $24 a pair! I think he has had some for maybe a year and a few less than that. Sorry, but we are now on the hunt to try and find something that he loves as much, but will also last.

😒.

I’ve always been a fan of boxers as an alternate choice for when I want something more comfy than lacy dental floss, however theres usually not a lot of options for femme-leaning individuals…until now.

These boxer shorts are not only vibrant and fun, but they’re also insanely comfortable! I honestly forgot I was wearing them because the fabric drapes nicely like a cloud. And they’re not just for wearing around the house.

I like to switch between wearing them to lounge in and wearing them out for brunch/running errands. If you’re looking for something comfy and versatile you should definitely pick these shorts! Perf for she’s, they’s, and he’s alike.

I was a little skeptical that the boxer was going to fit me. I started ordering large as I have gained a bit of weight, and it always tends to fit. But still, I was skeptical. I’m glad I got that size because it fits perfectly.

I always say that Parade’s products feel like a second skin. It’s always true. I love my boyshorts, but I like boxer briefs more. The material is lightweight, which is why it is so comfortable. I got the white boxer briefs and thought they might be see-through.

But it’s not, even though it seems that way. The elastic is perfect as it adjusts to my waistband and stomach. It’s very form-fitting. I would recommend this product!.

Although the sticker on the outside of the packet is Bering Sea, the contents are monochrome grey. When asked to correct their mistake the company suggests that I don’t need Bering Sea Cotton but can have the ones I did not order for 138 kr when Bering Sea are now on sale for 69 kr.

You might have thought they could fix their mistake by sending what I ordered and paid 279 kr for! Apparently not.

I’m serious – I bought these kinda thinking they would be a joke. I mean c’mon, the name comfyballs is ridiculous. BUT – daaaamn, they really are the most comfortable boxers I have ever worn! Treat you me balls right and get a pair of these, they deserve it!.

I remember the first time I got really nice underwear, that wasn’t suffocating “the boys”. It was a game changer, like I can’t tell you how great it is to wear really nice underwear, if you find yourself with some money to spend.

Do yourself a favor and get yourself something nice. You Wont regret it. 10/10.

The medium size fabric and main body of the material fit perfectly, but the waistband was too tight and uncomfortable. Exchanged for the large size (VERY easy exchange process, thank you!) and the waistband is more comfortable but now the main body of the fabric is very loose fitting and uncomfortable.

With other brands of briefs (wool and otherwise) the medium size works for me, so maybe these are targeted only to those with very small waist. For reference, using actual measuring tape my waist is 35.

5″ and I wear 32-34 size shorts and jeans depending on brand. I’m ~5’11” and ~170lbs. Overall I’d say the wool material is nice and if you are very fit give it a try. These for me were the least comfortable of all I’ve worn from many other brands and neither medium or large fit me well unfortunately.

I won’t be purchasing any more in the future, but maybe some other wool products would be nice to try like their t-shirts? The material is well made and feel nice to the touch.

Well, right off the bat the fit was excellent , although I usually wear Large and these were Medium. Perfect length, the pouch is actually useful, unlike so many others. Ultra soft these are not, I found them kind of scratchy, but hopefully they will get softer with time.

I come from Sea Island Cotton and silk, so the comparison probably isn’t fair. As far as breathability and temperature regulation goes – these do not disappoint. Overall, I am quite happy with them. Thought about subtracting a star for their less than stellar smoothness, but this seems like nitpicking at this point.

I have a very pressing reason to be perfectly dry in the groin area, so these briefs seem to fit the bill. Thumbs up!.

“You’ve never worn a more comfortable boxer!” Using wool, not cotton or synthetics? Look, I like wool. I wear wool, including underwear. It has real advantages. But there are limits. Then I got these, and wore them.

If they aren’t the most comfortabe boxers I own, they’re really close. Remarkable. I haven’t tested them in heat yet. That’s a few months away, but I expect that they’ll perform very well. I’m going to have to add to my collection of these, not just for hiking but for everyday wear.

I’d put these right beside the 440g Blizzard half-zip, Prescott 230g turtleneck, and my 440g vest as WoolX offerings that have no real competition among the many other wool brands I’ve tried.

The butter trunks are super soft and cozy. They also are really good at um, shall we say, letting things hang freely, which I liked. The one thing that didn’t work for me was the amount of fabric in the torso.

It seems like these were designed for really tall people! I’m 5’8 with a 32 waist and purchased a size small. I prefer my trunks a little slimmer/tighter and these on me either have the fabric fold over a few times at my waist or if I pull them tighter they go up to my waist.

Great for hanging around the house a little and a little awkward during the day at work. If you make a lower rise pair with smaller sizing I’d love them.

Was looking for my wife some more products, as she gets lots of complements on the Commando sports bra she purchased. While looking for her, I decided to give the boxer briefs a shot. While a little expensive, was worth it, and I have since bought a couple more pair.

Fabric and fit are excellent. Any chance the Micro Tech fabric will be available in the new trunk style? Thanks!.

So let’s start with a positives, first The material, length, and waistband are all great it keeps you nice and dry down there while you’re performing your best. Now for the con. I’m honestly not sure if this is on the part of the size or the material because I have the swift shift as well and I don’t encounter this with them.

Anyway it’s the fact that I have to keep on pulling my underwear and pants up *constantly*. They kind of shift down on your waist and thighs a little bit so your package slips out of the Joey Pouch and it can be a bit awkward trying to discreetly put that back in while also pulling everything up.

These are the perfect compression underwear! I workout a lot, run or sprint after each workout and these make me feel so much more comfortable. Keeps everything in place. And the fabric is amazing! I first thought they are too thick and would make me feel hot, but their cold skin technology really works!!! I actually prefer these than the new power shift model because they seem more durable.

I am 6’2’’ 215 lbs. ( I usually buy Levi’s 34×34) and size medium work for me perfectly. Fit snug, but that’s the kind of support I need (varicocele). If you don’t need things to be so tight, I’m sure size large would work perfectly.

these folks know how to make a proper pouch to hold your junk. overall very comfy, good length on the legs, supportive pouch. not all pouches are created equal but this pouch is nice than usual. it looks like it belong there.

it doesn’t seem like they just took a pair of boxer briefs and added this in. there’s an actual hem on the pouch, improving comfort. feels like the same material as the rest of it.

I think these are actually the best fitting and most comfortable boxer briefs I’ve ever owned. I really only ordered these so that I could use up some leftover credit that I had, but now I will be buying my underwear from these guys going forward.

The waist band is just tight enough to stay in place, and loose enough to not dig into my waist. It also doesn’t fold over when I sit down which tends happend with alot of other brands I’ve gotten. The leg holes are also just long enough to pass the thickest part of my thigh, preventing rolling of the seams, but not so long that they pop out of 7″ shorts.

And ofcourse, like all other marine layer products the fabric is super soft and comfortable.

My search for the perfect underwear may have finally ended. These are super comfortable. I don’t like the feel of boxer briefs (too tight on my legs), and don’t like bulky boxers. These are a good compromise.

Not bulky and annoying under pant/shorts. Waistband is incredibly soft and stretchy. Just bought 6 more pair.

These undies are extremely comfortable. The fit is great without any waistband folding or leg rolling (though you’ll need a full size up. why they don’t do standard sizing is beyond me) and they are silky, buttery soft.

actually, the softest underwear I’ve ever owned. I also love the color. Compared to other luxury brands I would say that even with the recent increase, the member price is pretty reasonable. Only one problem though: the fabric is fragile and deteriorates quickly.

actually, immediately. If you don’t want your fabric to pill and begin to disintegrate after just a few launderings then you need to line dry your underwear (these are the actual care instructions). I used to line dry out of necessity, and let me tell you.

it SUCKS. The moment I had access to a clothes dryer, I knew I wouldn’t be going back. In my opinion, this should not be the case especially when MeUndies cost so much. Yes, tumble drying does wear your clothes out faster than line drying, but most people don’t expect it to nearly ruin their clothes unless it’s an obviously delicate piece.

Lately I have greatly preferred PSD because they are of similar fit and comfort (though a little less soft), are the same price or cheaper if you get them on sale, and after a year of tumble drying the pairs in my rotation I haven’t begun to see the signs of wear that MeUndies do after just one or two rounds in the dryer.

If I had any suggestion to improve this product it would be durability. If you can afford $18 for a pair of underwear chances are you have access to a clothes dryer, and it should be able to stand up to that.

even the cheapest, scratchiest bulk packs from hell can withstand being tumble dried. Even considering this I am likely to order again when I am in need of new underwear, but will do so aware of the relatively limited lifetime of the product.

Too snug on thigh. Too loose on privates. Meh material. Doesn’t stretch as comfortably as their original material. Long time meundies fan and have many men and womens pairs for me and wife. But I’m not a fan of synthetic materials.

And I originally fell in love with meundies for actually having a comfortable breathable elastic cotton. And for me personally I like having room for my privates while still having a perfect gentle snug fit on the thighs.

Come to think of it, not sure what drove me to try the breathe fabric, but wish I didn’t waste time on it. It’s just like any other brand’s “exercise underwear” materials, which I find very uncomfortable and scratchy.

I can feel all the weaves and they become sticky quickly and thus annoying. Feels like a fake impossible too-good-to-be-true material was made tighter so that it would still fit snug on skin instead of loose… but feels like it may stretch over time making it have that ugly loose-fitted look, so they just made them smaller to account for this.

Imo nothing special; just like anything else you can find from other companies. At least with meundies you can get the cool patterns. But it also has the huge thick band so seems contrary to the purpose of the breathe material.

I know my body shape isn’t too common, so maybe the fit will work for others, but I have over a dozen pairs of same size (large) meundies in their original material that I think fit much better. Oh well, I’ll use them for something I suppose.

And I’ll still buy their original material!.

First off, wanted to thank MeUndies for making a high quality thong for men. I’ve been looking for one for awhile but usually only find them as a low quality novelty at a sex shop or as a special one-off item for Pride Month for fashion brands like Calvin Klein.

Been a fan of the micromodal underwear in boxer briefs for awhile and wanted to mix things up. Underwear fits really well. Keeps my package really separated from my body and keeps it all together. Noticed I no longer have issues of my anatomy sticking to the side of my thigh anymore, my crotch area doesn’t get as sweaty and I’m just feeling really comfortable.

From a purely practical side it feels both supportive in the areas it needs to be and like I am not wearing underwear at all in all the right ways. Beyond practicality though, the underwear looks very sexy on me.

I often glance at myself in the mirror and feel really confident wearing it. My girlfriend loves when I’m wearing one, she likes wearing one of her MeUndies thongs and cuddling with me. She finds it really flattering on me and since wearing them regularly we have been a lot more intimate.

It’s given us both a lot of joy during this long pandemic. While I see on some thongs the thread kind of comes loose a bit and the prints tend to fade, this is going to be one of my go-to cuts moving forward from MeUndies.

It’s really a minor caveat for underwear that is both practical and really flattering on me, really what more can I want? Besides for a men’s thong subscription!! Give the fans what they want!! There’s so few major brands making sexy underwear for men, it would mean a ton!.

the best look AND the best fit of any briefs i’ve ever owned. don’t let the muscle-bound pretty boys on the product pics fool you, cuz they look good on us “normal” boys too!!!! plenty of pouch room, no riding-up AND AT THE SAME TIME no fabric-sagging “in the back” after a long day of wearing them and stretching them out (still form-fitting even at the end of the work day), no public advertising when i bend over cuz they sit well below my pants-line, a non-scratchy tag that’s very easily removed without ripping the actual underwear threading, breathable design of the fabric/material i’ve never really seen before that’s definitely unique from lots of the other luxury underwear, and again — they-look-sharp!! i’ve spent several years trying to find “MY underwear”.

that hard work has paid-off finally, and i kinda feel like i’ve got the best kept secret in the underwear biz!!! a happy/repeat customer for sure!! these will be a mainstay on my yearly XMAS wishlist.

please keep producing them!!! none of this “Product Has Been Discontinued” trash!!!.

I am in the process of purchasing some of these items as the look fantastic and am thoroughly curious how well they will fit me. My only issue is that there aren’t any reviews with photos showing average guys that have purchased and are showing off the product on their own.

This would help me make a decision on purchase. I’m holding back right now because being am avid underwear/shapewear connoisseur. I have now seen the importance and relevance of promoting an average guys fit in a company’s products.

I received 10 pairs of these recently. In order to remove the tag and packaging I damaged two of them. The tag is extremely big and it makes no sense why in the world they would sew a massive tag into an item that directly contacts the body.

This ABSOLUTELY takes the premium product feel out of this item. When I have bought boxers from the company with a dead bird logo they sew in a little piece of fabric between the tag and the boxer to make it easy to remove.

That is a premium product. This is not. Of the 10 I received, half of them had a different packaging style that included four separate plastic tags into the boxer. I ended up with holes in two of the boxers while trying to remove these.

In total I spent 30 minutes removing tags on 10 pairs of boxers and damaged two in the process. With the complaining done, I would like to say that I do find these to be very comfortable and lightweight.

I have been exclusively wearing Ex-Officio Give-N-Go boxer briefs for about 10 years. I discovered them while looking for something i could sink wash on a mountaineering trip and ended up replacing all of my boxers with them.

As my first pairs are starting to wear out (seriously, after 10 years of daily wear), I’m trying to diversify and find some good alternatives. So far, these “Essential” boxer briefs have been super comfortable in fabric and fit, but I am not sure what the longevity will be.

The waistband is about what I expect for size M, and the fabric is very soft and comfortable, so i have high hopes, although I doubt anything this soft can outlast the Give-N-Gos, and I don’t yet know whether they do as well (or better) with odor control and breathability.

I don’t think these will be what i grab when I’m heading for the trail, but they definitely work for casual use.

I felt obliged to write a review after seeing so many negative ones. To everyone complaining about these being flimsy hiking underwear—that is not their intended purpose. They are for casual/everyday use (which is clear on the manufacturer’s website but less so on REI’s), and after a year of wearing them I can say the excel in that role.

First, they’re made from a sustainable, non-synthetic fabric; that’s important to me when it comes to my non-technical garments, because I’m trying to keep microplastics out of the ocean, ya dig? Second, these boys are stylin’.

I wear them when I want to feel like a sexy lil’ muffin. I wear them on special nights, magical nights when I might be expecting a friendly guest. Third, they have good odor resistance, which I know because I often unintentionally wear them for multiple days in a row since.

Fourth, they are mind-warpingly COMFORTABLE. My god it feels like having a dozen cherubs whispering sweet nothings to my thunder thighs all. day. long. It feels smoother than a perfectly matured Islay single-malt scotch.

It feels silkier than a buttered up slip ‘n’ slide on a hot Joo-lie afternoon. These boxers are superb. If you want to go a hikin’ and a runnin’, buy yourself a pair of Saxx Kinetic boxers. If you can’t afford that, get the ExOfficios Give-N-Goes.

But if you want to live like the royalty you are, buy these.

Bought for a gift, he loves them!!! Very comfortable and of course the designs are great!!! They do run really small though, had to return for bigger size.
