I've been in a bit of a pickle for awhile now. I'm chubby and find that underwear usually doesn't feel as comfortable as it should. I get a lot of chaifing from my thighs rubbing so I opt for boxer briefs or trunks to add a layer. Sometimes the legs of the underwear will creep up. There's also sometimes issues with waistbands. Some waistbands will roll (worn below my muffin top) which is really uncomfortable. Any "men of size" have these issues? Have you found anything that works for you? I was considering geting bear skn, but or $25 that might not be something right away.
i have fruit of the loom boxer briefs or george mens boxer briefs:

they're super snug and i work in a physically demanding job and they never roll up on the thighs or roll over on the stomach part.
If the waistband is too small, unfortunately it will stretch and roll down. Proper size is a must. Don't be bashful. If you need a larger size, get it.
I had this issue the first few times - then tried them on with different jeans. Thing their bad fit was more of a problem than the waistband of my trunks.
The first few times I went out in them I was really paranoid about the legs rolling up. I was convinced that it would give me away. Tried a slightly different style (not anything fancy - just from the supermarket) and didn't have an issue again.

I've had this issue sometimes, and the underwear I've found works best for me personally is American Eagle athletic trunks. They're long enough that they prevent thigh chafing, and for some reason the athletic trunks are far less likely to bunch up or ride up on me than their boxer briefs. Plus they're super soft trunks and come in colors and patterns which is a bonus :) The waistband on these tends to fold over like what you said, but as long as I have a big enough size, it isn't uncomfortable at all.
Basically for me it just took trying different brands and styles until one worked for me.
As said size does matter greatly.
Use the measurements on package.
Its been nice now being able to buy the proper size of panties.
After much trial and error with underwear, I finally figured out what works for me (and yes, I am definitely chubby!). I have yet to find a pack of underwear that works - I buy the single items at places like Ross (or Marshall's or other new-but-discounted stores). They run me around $6-9/pair, which is spending but worth it. I found a specific brand that works for my body style, and am having success with them. I make sure they don't have a bunch of fabric... closed fly is ideal. I also go for the styles that have longer legs on them, so they don't ride up my legs.
I have a variety of american eagle types. Some roll, most can't hold my junk in place, and others have issues with the leg holes riding up or bunching.
I'm a little bit of a bigger guy but I love Hanes boxer briefs. They're so comfy, never had a problem.
Years ago I was a larger male. I used to get huge boils from heat in that area. I found that wearing panties actually dispersed the heat better. The heat was a big issue. The boils went away and after a very long time so did the scars. Now... I'm a girlie.... N smaller so I still love my panties. So yes boys... You can wear them too. Lol.

But panties don't prevent thigh chaif like boxer briefs do, and are too tight in the front to hold a packer comfortably.
I really like my Adidas boxer briefs. They don't ride up, bag, or sag. And I don't have to wear a harness or use adhesive to keep my packer in place. The waistband does roll down below my muffin top, but I don't really notice it.
Basically, you wanna find something with at least 5% spandex. 100% cotton with stretch out, ride up, roll down, wedgie, all that. Even if they say they don't ride up, since cotton doesn't stay snug, the legs with stretch and ride up.
Panties. No, don't even like the word. :)
I'm not at all chubby but I like the Fruit of the Loom covered waist band. I don't like elastic digging into me at all. I have no idea how they'd work. I wear a jock over it to hold the packer, then also it's not touching me.

I've had a huge problem with chafing as well. Personally, I've had a lot of luck with Russell Men's Sport Performance Long Leg Boxer Brief from Walmart. They run at about ten bucks a pair, which is pricey, but they are super worth it in my opinion. I haven't had any problems with them rolling down but I do wear my boxers on my hips so that may play into play as to why they don't roll down.
