Mens Underwear
Had this shipped to me in Iraq. My underwear collection was hurting and the local laundry service had done a number on my undergarments over the months. I was so happy to get these. I still remember slipping into my new boxer briefs. They are durable and held up admirably to the stresses of combat. Hanes Classics Men's 4-Pack Multi-Color Boxer Brief Underwear, Slate Heather/Blue Stone/Scuba Blue Heather/Federal Blue, Large
These briefs advertise a "no ride up" quality (a definite bonus!) and after trying them on, I could see why: the fit on the thigh is quite tight. I ordered a medium and I have average thigh thickness, but these didn't feel particularly comfortable. If the lower thigh portion had more elasticity, this wouldn't be a problem, but there was little "give" in this area. The fabric itself is average quality and actually a little rough. I was looking for a tighter woven, softer feel that I've become accustomed to with Calvin Klein and some of the Jockey boxer briefs. On the plus side, the waist band is soft and comfortable and the pouch has an airy yet slightly snug "cup" feel. Also, considering the price, these aren't a bad value, so for the less-picky (not me) these may work just fine.
The boxers are decent. The cut is okay. I ordered the size corresponding to my waist but they are still a little big on me. they don't hug my thighs the way i would like them to. Still, they look okay.
Hanes makes a surprisingly good, comfortable men's boxer brief. The fabric is quite soft and although at first I felt they were a bit too snug in the thigh I got used to that pretty fast especially with the underwear becoming more comfortable after a cycle or two through the washer and dryer. Now the overall feel is quite comfortable.
True, they don't give you quite as much room as regular boxers but now I like these very much as I got to like wearing them pretty fast. (It's not that snug in the thigh.) The front opening makes it easy to wear while urinating and the elastic waistband is very well made. They last a long time, too.
I highly recommend these boxer briefs.
I was planning on buying some ck briefs but I was lucky and saw this in the process,I can honestly say that they are very close in quality at a great price, this so far have work perfectly and are very comfortable.
My suggestion would be: If you plan on buying quality at a good price go for it, unless you want premium at a premium price.
When I first received these Hanes Classics Men's 4-Pack Multi-Color Boxer Brief Underwear, I was pleased with their fit and comfort. After a couple of washes ( on gentle cycle in cold water and without over drying) I noticed that the there were little strings coming out around the waistband on a couple of pair. Not long after this the stitching continued to come apart and the waistband began separating from the boxer briefs.
I therefore cannot recommend these. I can however recommend the Hanes CSWB Boxer Briefs. They are comparably priced and seem to be better made with a nice comfortable fit.
My husband always buys Hanes boxer briefs because they're very comfortable and durable. These start off a little snug on the thighs but they loosen a little for a more comfortable fit after a few washes. The elastic waistband looks nice and holds up well.
These are my favorite boxers from now on. They are very, very comfortable and do not give you wedgies.
The price is great as well, but it seems that Amazon raised the price on them. Shame really because I got them under $14.'
