Last year I thought I would do a sock and underwear challenge to see which I liked best.

ExOfficio Men's Give-N-Go Boxers, Duluth MEN'S BULLPEN CORRALLING BOXER BRIEFS, Duluth Buck Naked, and Stacy Adams Big Boxer. I tried a few others but I don't remember the brands.

The ExOfficio are probably the best overall. Really quick to dry. Like other boxers, very little support though. One big negative, these had a tendency to creep up.

The Stacy Adams ones are the most comfortable if you were to just wear them around the house by themselves.

The plain buck naked were not as good as the others.

The Bullpen were the most supportive and probably the one I'd choose overall.

I'd like to try a brand name Saxx

I've started splurging on a brand called Pullen. Kinda pricey, great graphics and the most comfortable drawers I've ever worn. I'm tossing all my older Jockey brand and my boys are thrilled!

For me it's either the waist band or the leg openings. Some of those leg openings just stretch worse than the waistband and end up just too big for human male thighs. When it looks like a stork wearing a hoop skirt - out they go.

I guess that falls into 'Other'

I tried boxers but never felt... hmmm 'safe' in them. That's about as far as I'll go there. But briefs are really tough to find suitable ones.

My last batch are actually Amazon brand. Had very high buyer ratings and damn if they aren't just exactly perfect.

I love the feel of boxers but have had too many "crossed wires" incidents to trust them. Left should stay on the left and the right should stay on the right. The middle thing can float some.

My father who is 67 visited me last summer. Came out of the bedroom in the morning and was wearing whitey tighty's that were so stretched out that his everything was completely exposed through the leg hole. I would have never thought that possible had I not personally witnessed it.

Please gentlemen, dont be be my dad. Nobody wants that.

If I could have voted for all of them I would have.

I've tried the buck naked and armachillo from duluth trading and have not been impressed and creep up more than the regular cotton hanes.

If anyone cares, Cloudline Merino and Darn Tough Merino were my favorite socks. People Socks Merino were my budget pick and more of a winter/non running sock.

My mission in 2018 is to find an undershirt that doesn't shrink and fits well without being too thick. Surprisingly hard to find.

My father wore tighty whitey's every day of his post diaper life up until he put on a pair of good quality boxer briefs about 5 years ago. Changed his life and He never went back. He was 55 at that point.

I'm not a boxer man, prefer briefs or boxer briefs. But I have been on a quest to find something that's better than just cheap Hanes or Fruits. I've tried a few different ones from Target, Old Navy and even Duluth.

Not happy with anything else. Feel weird jumping to some of the "premium" brands that cost $20 or $30 a piece.

I googled Stacy Adams

If you are wearing her underwear, I wouldn't go out in public with them on either.

Boxers are great at night, but not during the day. Its like not wearing anything. The boys need to be held.

Jockey pouch boxer briefs are the answer. Last a long time, easiest front access, decent support without smashing the goods, dont ride up.

I’m all Duluth trading now. I have one pair of armachillos and although they are comfy and breathable, they do ride up more than anything else I’ve worn. I love the buck nakeds though.

Also, how is anyone over the age of 14 wearing boxers? You gotta have the support of the boxer briefs.
