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.

Boxer briefs, ex officio is too expensive but pretty darn great.

Have you tried boxer briefs? It's the best of both worlds. There really aren't that many different options, just try a few more and see how you feel.

Try different brands as well, they all feel different. In addition to different brands, they each have different sub types based on what material used.

The recommendations in here use 90-95% viscose and rest elastan.

I suspect some Soda & Scotch Trunks of mine use similiar materials.

All my other trunks are 95% cotton and elastan or (free swining boxers) 100% cotton.

Pico underwear. Arguably the best material I've ever felt.

They’re not cheap, but I have been rocking lululemon boxer briefs since roughly when the pandemic started. They’re cut so that you’ll have a nice pocket for the old wedding tackle, and the fit is quite flattering (or so I have been told).

You can occasionally snipe discounts on their website, or find deals at outlet locations.

They're not cheap by any means but stance boxer briefs have not done me wrong. Even the tighter bits are pretty stretchy to accommodate. Loose enough but supportive.

I got some Ergowear boxer briefs and briefs, super comfortable and plenty of space for everything to have it's own place without getting squished.

Only downside is they aren't that cheap, though maybe there are some cheap copies out there
