Default Can we get a bit personal gentleman?

I'm looking for suggestions for the most comfortable underwear. Mens preferably. I wear (slim fit) jeans almost every day so they can't be loose & baggy.

My god you never know what you'll find in the open mic forum!

I really like these Hane’s Ultimate Men's Comfort Flex Fit Cotton/Modal Boxer Briefs. Very comfortable.

My favorite are the Duluth Trading Company Buck Naked Briefs. These are soft comfy nylon and last for years. I sweat a lot when working out and apparently my perspiration eats up cotton quickly - six months and cotton undies are in tatters. (Good thing I am not as tough on guitar strings!) They are not cheap, but I ordered a dozen pairs maybe ten years ago, and except for the elastic waist on one pair they are still going strong.

Will I get thrown off the forum because I clicked on this? I didn't know what it was going to be about, and I thought I was going to have to remind the OP that not everyone here is a gentleman, or even of the male gender. But instead, I got to read a discussion about men's underwear.

Saxx. Pricey but good. There are a few different styles. I prefer Vibe.

David Archy brand, available on Amazon. They have conventional underwear and also have a uniquely designed underwear that you’ll have to try for yourself (they are very comfortable despite the unique design). The fabric is rayon\micromodal and very comfortable.

OTOh, discussing underwear comfort and fit is roughly analogous to talking about guitar strings- everyone has their favorites and YMMV.

I'm not joking, but Lululemon men's boxer briefs are the most comfortable by far. And I've tried a lot of different brands.

I second Saxx. And will add “2 under” have a similar fit and feel to Saxx.
Both are pricey.
But hey, you’re worth it.

In answer to the OP, Fruit of the Loom briefs...
