Briefs question
 
I usually wear bikini briefs. I needed more white underwear for work (the boss makes us wear white scrubs), so I picked up a pack of regular briefs from Costco.

They fit fine when I put them on in the morning; I get good support, and the leg holes are flush with my thighs. However, midway through the day, they get all saggy, I get no support, there's gaps between the leg holes and my thighs, and I sometimes end up dangling out the leg hole.

Is this just the way briefs are, or do I need to buy better ones?

telekinetic 05-17-2010 08:05 AM

I am not a brief fan, since if the leg holes are tight enough to keep things contained, they almost cut of leg circulation, and if not, you end up flopping out uncomfortably and (in white scrubs) potentially embarrassingly. I find boxer briefs to be a good compromise to this problem.

rahl 05-17-2010 08:43 AM

yea tighty whities are pretty much out now a days. I prefer boxers for everyday use, but if I need some support I'll wear boxer briefs.

Baraka_Guru 05-17-2010 08:47 AM

Boxer briefs. I swear by them.

LordEden 05-17-2010 09:09 AM

Boxer Briefs. Can't beat them.

dlish 05-17-2010 09:10 AM

ive never had boxer briefs.

im a bikini brief person through and through and ive had no issues throughout my years.

maybe try buying better quality briefs would be my recomendation. ive always worn CK briefs, and they last a long time and they dont 'sag' so to speak.

Cimarron29414 05-17-2010 09:33 AM

Bikini all the way. My boys need a house. If you wear boxers, your boys will be swimming in the toilet at 65. Boxer briefs would be nice by my thighs are too big for them. All the fabric rides up into my crotch by the end of the day.

Cynthetiq 05-17-2010 09:36 AM

I hate boxer briefs because the leg part rides up.

The new hanes briefs don't have that "feature" and it is labeled as "no ride up" of course make sure you are getting the right size.

Redlemon 05-17-2010 10:16 AM

I have the same issue regarding boxer briefs riding up that Cyn and Cim mentioned. So, those are out.

Wow...after years of shopping at Victoria's Secret and dealing with all the options women have (thong, bikini, high-cut, low-rise, tanga, boy short, bike short) it's sort of comforting to know that we're not alone. I honestly never knew men also have undie issues.

This is surprising....

External genitalia. :)

Strange Famous 05-17-2010 10:42 AM

The only time I wear Y Fronts is to play cricket (to hold the box in place)

Otherwise I always wear boxer shorts. To be honest the problem I find with Y Fronts or Briefs is that they are two tight around the nuts and so on.

we do. its just that for men the issues are more about comfort than aesthetics

My father always wore silk bikini briefs.
I forget what brand, this was back in the 1960's.

My ex-husband would only wear silk shorty boxers.
Even if they bunched a bit, it was more comfortable than thick cotton.

I imagine body-type is an important consideration.

I would check out a higher quality brand of underwear.

Lasereth 05-17-2010 11:42 AM

I can't stand boxers (why would I want to wear shorts under my clothes??) and I REALLY can't stand boxer briefs (my thigh/pelvis joint being covered up bothers me hardcore, it makes me really really hot). Hanes briefs do the same thing you're talking about to me Redlemon but Fruit of the Loom don't. Hanes are FTL.

dlish 05-17-2010 11:42 AM

also maybee try something that's not cotton. cotton tends to retain water and may cause the saginess that you're talkin about

I'm going to go with, when that happens it's like an underwear version of the sock quitter.

Usually when that happens, it's just time for new underwear.

okay but there's a couple of problems with that like, you know the pup tent, or as it's known now the dick slang, and when you sit down, maybe you may have to put the mouse back in the house.

They have a liner like briefs but aren't made of cotton and thus won't simply hold ballsweat all day like some kind of hellish stank pocket.

I've worn them for years (they're all I own) and I've never had any problems with them as far as the construction of throbbing flesh obelisks.

Yeah, but the material is a really fine synthetic mesh and doesn't grab at your junk. It's friggin' amazing. For $9 ($4 on post), I'd recommend trying them. I've got buddies that splurge and go for the expensive UnderArmour nuthuggers but I can't see paying that much.

They're great for especially hot days outside. Insert of one of those "if it works for GI Joe's balls, it can work for yours!" lines here.

Those don't come in white, however. They have to go under white scrubs.

note the sock that is no longer behaving like a sock should. It's quit being a sock and now it's something else entirely.

I forgot who taught me the quitter, I think it was Chevy Chase.

My husband's older fruit of the loom underwear has problems like you've described. It is also poorly sized and falling apart at the seams. I don't want to know how old it is (likely hand-me-down from a sibling who decided tighty whities are for wimps, well before our marriage). Bought him a brand new package in the appropriate size about a year ago and they're still going strong.

Moral of the lesson:
- learn your size
- old underwear does this

Leto 05-18-2010 06:51 AM

i find that i no longer wear the tighties - unless I am running (depending on my running shorts) Boxer briefs are totally the way to go. The legs never ride up on me, but I buy Hanes or FTL or Stanfields.

I've tried traditional boxers, but don't like that loosey-goosey feeling. The boys need a home. Also, the boxer briefs are good enough to wear on their own, so if you are ever in a situation, like say a bank robbery where the robbers demand that you have to strip down to your underwear... well, they got you covered!

Who the fuck wears white scrubs? The Navy? Jesus, talk about a shitty color / occupation combo.

I'm a massage therapist. The boss is looking for a "clinical" atmosphere. I tried to convince her otherwise.

ring 05-18-2010 10:08 AM

That brings to mind: "they're coming to take me away, ha ha, hee hee"

That's a shame she feels that way. Very odd.

Silk underwear is lightweight and breathable.
I bet it might be difficult to find in white, though.

(other than thermal longies)

Iliftrocks 05-21-2010 06:00 AM

Depends

lurkette 05-23-2010 05:05 AM

Who wants a clinical atmosphere when they go to get a massage?! Because doctors' offices are sooo relaxing e_e

Well, it's not like everything is chrome and paper coverings and antiseptic smells. We have nice music, and the rooms are (over)decorated. She's trying to ensure that people know that we aren't prostitutes. (And yet, we still get an occasional perv.)

Redjake 05-24-2010 05:12 PM

I can't wear boxers because they ride up my legs and basically turn into briefs by the end of the day.

Also, I actually incur more ball sweat while wearing boxers than with briefs. I can nasty-fucking-magma-hot when wearing boxers for some reason. When I wear briefs, I rarely get hot. I know that doesn't make any sense whatsoever!

Boxer-brief combos ride up my legs as well.

stevie667 05-25-2010 01:21 PM

See if you can find sports boxer-briefs. I hate boxers because the boys end up trying to play find the foot, but normal boxer briefs go a bit thongish after a days wear.

I found some sports type ones, more expensive, but they go further down the leg and are a tad more fitting, so the boys can just sit and chill.

Idyllic 05-25-2010 01:54 PM

My husband likes the Stafford Performance selection at JCP, they seem to stay together really well, as far as wash after wash goes, nice material and durable and if you get them on sale you can buy one pack and get another for half price or sometimes 88 cents.

And she finds that putting you in what (based on this discussion) apparently amount to semitransparent pants is the best means to this end? :orly:

counterpoint 05-29-2010 10:22 PM

I figure it all depends on the type of briefs you buy. I personally wear FTL briefs, and I've never had an issue with them. Over the course of a day, I'm sure bending over, walking around and other things of the sort can stretch the cotton a bit, but if you buy the correct size from a decent brand, you shouldn't have any problems with your testicles hanging out the side of them!

loquitur 05-31-2010 02:14 PM

boxer briefs are good, but I have also found that something called "trunk briefs" are even better. support better with less sag.

I gave up tighty whiteys years ago.

Redlemon 06-01-2010 05:20 AM

OK, I'm giving up on the tighty whities. I found an interesting blog (Men's Underwear Guy - Reviews, News and Opinions on Men's Underwear, ladies feel free to ogle) and am currently trying the Sears brand of low rise briefs out on his recommendation.

Reese 06-01-2010 05:28 AM

Have you tried buying briefs with a smaller leg holes and just pre stretching them before putting them on so they're fully stetched at the beginning of the day.
