By Dudepins @dudepins

Men’s underwear. If you’re going to be wearing something all day, you want it to be a little stylish, a little nice, but more importantly, you want it to be comfortable. In this piece we’re going to look at a few of the most popular styles of underwear for men and help you find the best kind to suit you.

Boxers

The old classic; made of a soft Cotton-Polyester blend, this old standby style of underwear is still a favorite. Boxers allow you comfort and unrestricted freedom, no confinement, they have a loose and generous fit design, so they’re good for everyone, no need to ‘tailor’ your underwear. The relaxed nature of their design means the fabric never gets too worn or stretched, so they last.

The other excellent thing about boxers is that they’re usually pretty inexpensive, so you can pick up a great multi pack of them for very little. Great with a suit or with jeans, they’re versatile and adapt to you.

Briefs

Sometimes you say to yourself, in the immortal words of Cosmo Kramer: “My boys need a house!” And he’s right, there are going to be times that you need something a little tighter fitting. That’s where briefs come in. Often suited to a more active set of activities, with no leg sections to them, they allow full range of unrestricted movement; maybe you’re hiking, jogging, working out, etc. The brief means you’ll be ‘secure’ while staying comfy. Like the boxer, this is a classic design, and the fact it’s still around speaks to its popularity.

These particular ones have a 100% cotton blend to them which means this underwear will breathe like nothing else and will feel soft and comfortable all day, perfect for something full of activity

Boxer-briefs

The best of both worlds! This style gives you some great fitted comfort while not constricting you, the best designed boxer brief underwear will make you feel like you’re not even wearing it, not as loose and rumpled as a boxer, but not as confining as a pair of briefs.

These ones sport some excellent features and advanced technology in the world of undergarments! Made of a 94%/6% Nylon-Lycra blend, they dry fast so you can chuck them in the wash and have them dry in minutes without even needing the clothes line, with anti microbial properties the fabric will keep bacteria at bay, leaving the underwear fresher for longer. And finally, with a wicking action woven in, they’ll keep you dry and comfortable no matter what you’re doing. Perfect.
