Hello Internet,

I have trouble with any underwear I ever owned. I am wearing XXL or size 8 underwear but they tend to make me uncomfortable in different matters.

Waering loose Boxershorts is okay to my wiener but my balls are to free. Also they tend to crawl upwards during the day.

Tighter Shorts have a good appearance and are my main underwear. But I struggle with them as well: My thing turtles uncomfortably making me insane so I can pull it into position. Also, they tend to screw at the bottom after half an year.

Asking this within my circles only earns sarcastic comments or the experience isn’t shared. So I ask you: How do I determine the correct underwear for me and am I missing something? If you relate and have solved this issue, please recommend me some underwear.

// Edit:

Thank you for all the recommendations and input. I wasn’t aware of the pouch feature. Researched all suggested brands and:

Ordered from overseas:

  • SAXX
  • BN3TH

Currently not deliverable:

  • Step One

Lululemon does have a store in the city, so I will go there next week to try those on.

    SAXX

    They are pricey but totally worth it. They last a long time, are very comfortable and have a pouch for your stuff. You can usually find deals on their website for things like discontinued holiday prints. I don’t really care what mine look like so I wear a lot of Christmas themed boxer briefs. I’d recommend the Vibe.

      I moved trom Saxx to Bn3th because I found they stretched out less over time and thus last longer.

      Design wise they’re practically identical to Saxx.

        Got my BN3TH trunks from overseas today. I divided my 104 cm by 2.38 instead of 2.54. And therefore I ordered XXL. They fit perfectly but my trunk may be too small… sadbutshrugs

        Sitting down was already clearing my first problem. I will wear them over the weekend since I will sit for an extended time and will move a lot as well.

        Initially, the cuts on the back are bad for my butt; But this may due to the very loose size I got and may change once washed at 40°C.

        I will report back after the weekend + after the next load on my washing machine with an edit. Thank you, Sir.

        // Edit:

        Since I did an follow-up post I need to clarify:

        By a very loose cut I mean that the material has room to stretch. The BN3TH shorts have a bezieré cut on the back which compliments the men’s butt. They fit tightly but the cut is too loose, meaning I could benefit from it if I ordered the correct size. XL would align perfectly on both sides.

        These undies are for Showers but Gainers. After receiving SAXX undies I recommend those for the latter - like me.
