Title: Your Favorite Underwear ...
Post by: insideontheoutside on August 13, 2010, 08:32:14 PM
Ok, so it's Friday finally and I've had a crazy week and I think we need a little "lighthearted" type of topic here. And yes, I consider underwear a lighthearted topic.

My personal favs? http://ginchgonch.com/c-2-men.aspx (http://ginchgonch.com/c-2-men.aspx) Anyone with a tag line of "Live Like a Kid!" I'm down with lol. Besides that, they're fun and I like fun in my underwear (haha I just realized how that sounds)! Only downside is that they're EXPENSIVE! But after buying probably a dozen of them over the last couple years I would say they're worth the money because they're really well made. And they're super comfortable - if you like that style.

So anyway, yeah, crazy week deserved a crazy topic. Let's here about your fav underwear...

My most comfortable underwear are Bugle Boy briefs. They also look great with my packer in them. :P

And just cause I love Guinness my Guinness boxers are another fave of mine.

Most of mine are from Topman & are quite geeky; robots, sonic the hedgehog, aliens etc. But I love 'em & they're really comfortable :]

I like boxer-briefs.  I had a blast when I wore my ex's (we got rained on so I had to borrow a pair), I just let on how much.  I really want to get a Spiderman or Family Guy set. Whenever I get a packer I plan on investing in a pair...though I might run around and go get some stuff to do a home made packer to start out with.

How about favorite cheap brands + styles, guys?  ;D  I'm poor and I need to buy new underwear.  I've actually never bought mens' underwear before, lol...  I think it's about time I made the switch though.

I like Hanes boxer briefs, preferably in dark colors.  Yes, I know, quite boring, but I do not have the cash for fun designs :'(

h&m, at least in europe, has tons of different styles of boxer briefs. bright colors, comic strip prints, star wars, superman, skulls,rolling stones tongues, some nice punk checkered patterns, rainbow...bananas and cucumbers all over prints ;)

check the teen boys department if you can, sometimes they have nice stuff there too (but the three packs are usually...the kind of underwear designs only grandma would buy for you...) and the teen stuff is really inexpensive

Bugle Boy's pretty cheap. I'm also poor and a penny pincher. :P

I like the Hanes boxer-briefs with the "ComfortSoft" waist band.  I recently got some in red and blue that kind of remind me of Superman's tights.  :P  I also like their trunks.
Title: Re: Your Favorite Underwear ...
Post by: notyouraverageguy on August 13, 2010, 11:57:14 PM
insideontheoutside, those undies are pretty cool. I think worth the price for all that print and color on them.

My personal favs atm are aeropostale boxer briefs...but only because they're pretty much the only ones I've tried, besides hanes and george.

I want these!

I'm in on the Hanes boxer briefs  group ( in assorted colors and with the soft waist band.) Cheap and comfy is good. I do like my AC/DC ones tho.

I have a pair of sweet Batman boxers. Black with the emblems all over. Not because they are comfortable, but because I freaking love Batman.

I have what I call my "fancy pants." They are men's briefs that are pretty darn awesome. The company that makes them also use something made to "enhance your package" which works great to hold a packer in place. They are expensive designer underwear and I have had trouble with the butt enhancing ones being too tight on my bum and thighs BUT the ones I have are awesome. Andrew Christian is the designer and site. The rest of my underwear is fairly plain boxers. I was looking at briefs with what looks like comics on 'em...maybe another time.

Primark has amazing undies. So cheap aswell. I have tons in funky patterns and colours and lots with slogans or comic book characters and most of them run at like £1 a pair.

I've always had a serious thing for cool underwear, 90% of my clothes are boxers and socks :P

Post by: Konnor on August 14, 2010, 10:31:58 AM
I have a ton of undies. Still haven't found anything I really love though. Most of the time I wear boxer briefs from Aeropostale. I've also tried trunks from Express and Starter, but they feel too much like girl's "boy cut" undies to me. Most of the boxers I've tried, usually Aeropostale, are a bit tight in the rear so I don't like them either. Hopefully someday I'll find some that accomodate my giant butt and thighs.  :-\

I like the Hanes briefs that have the cloth band... gaaahh so comfy! And briefs and trunks let me put my packer in the pee hole :P It's a perfect little pocket. I have boxers which I liked but having a place to put my packer is so convenient. Plus my girlfriend says they're hot so... I kind of don't have a choice  :icon_redface:

Well I need some advice on this topic :o. I still wear girly briefs cuz I haven't yet got the balls to go out and get some manly ones. I still live at home and my mum does all the laundry so I'm just wondering what she might think/say or if she'll throw my undies in my dad's pile ::) fun times ahead. You guys think I should just go for it and stop worrying about what MIGHT happen?

Men's underwear doesn't seem to come in "cheap." The upside is it's more durable than women's.

oh, and my favourites are my Calvin Klein trunks. They're really good for "giant butt" syndrome.

This is true, they're thicker and more expensive.

Trunks are the shorter boxer briefs right?
I have a big butt, but I don't think I can wear shorter undies.
Title: Re: Your Favorite Underwear ...
Post by: kyril on September 26, 2010, 06:28:28 PM
Yeah, shorter boxer briefs.

I have big thighs that curve in a lot at the top, so anything with any amount of "leg" will climb up my leg and bunch up in the indented area at the top of my inner thigh. Boxers are really bad that way, but boxer briefs do it too. But regular briefs look too much like diapers to me. So I go with trunks.

It's a shame they're so hard to find :( I got a couple packs of a cheaper brand that called themselves trunks, but they were just boxer briefs.

American Eagle trunks are great.
I'm currently wearing Evolve brand. I prefer trunks that don't have a fly.
Y-fronts are pretty hot, but I worry about packer slippage.

I really want a nice style of low-cut briefs.  I have some sport-briefs puritans from walmart but the legs are too big and they tend to ride up after a couple of hours.  I'm short and need something low-rise.  I hate trunks and briefs because they always ride up by the end of the day.  Any suggestions?
Title: Re: Your Favorite Underwear ...
Post by: RaeLikesTea on September 27, 2010, 02:06:16 PM
BTW, for those wanting nice but inexpensive underwear, Evolve are made by 2Xist, but sold at Target. They're pretty inexpensive, but a little nicer than Jockey or Hanes, etc.

Well if you're not opposed to shelling out some $$ for some ginch gonch those are what I'd recommend. As an aside, I've had pairs for several years and they're still in good shape so they do last a long time.

I have big thighs too, but to me I feel like I need longer legs or they ride up. Idk.
I've seen trunks. I went shopping for some new boxer briefs the other day. Got me some more Aeropostale, but went looking all over for anything cheap but in my preference. There was nothing. The only ones I liked that were not too pricey were American Eagle. Except they were low rise boxer briefs, so they were just like trunks with the short legs. I love their color and design collection but they were 2 for $20, which imo is a bit much. I almost got them but Aero had a 2 for 1 deal and I got 3 boxer briefs and 1 boxer for $23. STEAL!
Lol

I like briefs myself. I like my underwear to stick close to my skin boxer-briefs tend to bunch on me too much, briefs stay where I put 'em. My favorite brand of all time is Joe Boxer (http://www.joeboxer.com/index.html (http://www.joeboxer.com/index.html) you can has website :3) their products tend to be really soft and nice, I own some of their undershirts too.

Yeah, I've noticed that mens' underwear does tend to be pretty expensive. I found a pack of 5 Hanes briefs for 9 bucks though, and those seem to work for me. I've tried boxers and briefs, and boxers just bug me for some reason. :-\

Low rise trunks from M&S.  Very comfortable like women's pants could NEVER be, and pretty flattering too.

Or my skull and crossbones trunks from Primark's kids section.  Very handy for Talk Like a Pirate Day.  They got me right in character.  And I love wearing them when I have to go into work in drag.  It seems both quietly ridiculous and defiant.
