I am beginning to think I am the last holdout. I go to a shop and look for SAXX or Tommy John. The retails now carry boxer briefs only.

It's getting tougher to find 100% cotton boxers. Now they add some kind of spandex to make them stretchy........... :roll:

I just wear boxers. Before that, years ago, I wore briefs. I have never understood the appeal of boxer briefs.

I'm not sure I want to visualise you gents in your underwear over breakfast. On further thought - I lie. I'm quite sure about it

Having reached the age where I look ridiculous (if not actually disturbing) in any form of underwear I shall have to do the logical thing and go 'commando'! There! Now I spoiled your appetites! :shock:

I wear briefs and found some that I really like a few years ago from Jockey. They are cotton with a little Spandex or something in them. I really like the fit. Alas, they no longer make them. All cotton sags a little to much for me, just doesn’t have the spring to it that the blend does. Other models are just too brief as they are too short-waisted. I haven’t tried the boxer briefs, but I really need to find an alternative as my current supply is aging fast.

Most assuredly! I wear only Jockey Y Fronts, 100% cotton, and white. I’ve worn them for years and have no inclination to try anything else. I do, however, wear one size larger than my trouser size, i.e. 36 vs 34, to avoid any binding.

Yep, I hate tight underwear. They have to be 'breathable', comfortable and 100% cotton.
Like the good Doctor says, at our age it's more about comfort than trying to look like an 18 year old with speedos. :lol:

I purchased a package of the "Y-Fronts" On Wednesday night. So far so good. I am very particular about the veracity of the elastic around the legs. I need containment and support.

I tried the Hanes X-Temp recently...they did not meet the standard.

Should have known to expect that from something I bought at Wal-Wart.

...and support.
Just like a railway bridge.

I'm not sure whether I ought to commiserate or congratulate you. All the same, I really should stop reading this thread, as I'm not enjoying the imagery at all. Carry on, briefly. Or, to be continued shortly - it's all the same to me.
