No clue at all what brand these boxers are, but I think they look nice! They’re a very traditional look, with a simple pattern on what appears to be a slightly stiffer, sheet-ier kind of fabric – definitely not the traditional briefs-style fabric or a super-soft, almost-formless cotton. I imagine it’s almost a little slick to the touch, in a way. The waistband also looks like it could be a little on the crinkle-y side, especially with the kind of fabric I’m thinking of.

I have a pair of boxers myself from Jockey that I think are comparable to this pair in terms of fabric, but it’s just a guess. It’s the kind of boxers you might think of for a 9-to-5 office-worker kind of stereotype. (My Jockey boxers even have a button-close pocket in back! A bit weird, but kinda fun.)

Even if the fabric is a little on the stiffer side, these boxers were apparently designed with enough of a front to give a fairly good look to the pouch here as this daddy is wearing it! He definitely seems to be providing a nice shape up front, and he looks comfortable wearing it too, which is of course always the most important part. It kinda looks like the pair has a fly, but it’s hard to tell exactly; between the angle and the lighting, I can’t see an obvious button, and the fly isn’t obviously semi-open either, which can often happen with boxers and similar things when the way you’re standing causes the two halves of the fly to fold differently.

2xist – Pima Knit Boxer – White – M

067

(I seem to have misplaced the pictures, but what they hey, I’ll take more soon and pop ’em in here)

Material: 100% Cotton, and it feels so good =-) Nice and soft, exactly what you’d expect of 100% cotton, with a good thickness to match. Comfortable but not extensive amount of stretch to the fabric itself, but you don’t expect that for true boxers anyway, nor of 100% cotton; it’s exactly what it’s supposed to be.
Aesthetic: Hard to get more classic and simple than unadorned white. The only semi-noticeable feature is the logo on a small loop of extra fabric at the belt-buckle position on the waistband, which is a classy, reserved touch. With nothing else to look at, it’s worth pointing out that the button of the fly is simple as well, just a small disc of white plastic, which is good because anything bigger, more shaped, or colored would not look like a match to the rest of the pair.
Waistband: Great stretch, good height, and very soft and comfy with a thin layer of sort-of-pleated fabric covering the actual waistband itself. The tag at the back of the waistband is very soft as well, so this pair is all about comfort.
Pouch: NA, since it’s a true boxer. While I would consider this a traditionally loose true boxer versus a more modern tight-fit true boxer, there is definitely an element of keeping the front relatively flat, i.e. it’s not as incredibly loose as it potentially could be. That said, the fabric is so soft that your junk will love the feeling.
Backside: Also NA since it’s a true boxer. While it is a traditionally loose pair, there is a hint of shape back here as well. The “side” seams are actually a little to the back, which provides a nice framing to your ass in these boxers.
Legs: I do rather like the length on these, and again these are somewhere in between a really loose traditional boxer and modern tight one, so the legs aren’t constraining at all, but they also aren’t likely to bunch up in your pants.
Other: I liked this pair so much when I got it, I ordered a second white Pima boxer and a blue Pima boxer. For the life of me, I can’t find the blue pair anywhere, and that makes me sad. That said, the boxers currently for sale on 2xist’s site are slightly different that those I have – notably the placement of the brand name.
Overall: 5/5 – as far as boxers go, I think this is about as good as you can get, which is why I’ve bought three of them. That said, boxers aren’t for everyone, and some people like the tighter boxers – but if you like traditional-fit boxers, these should be your go-to.

NEW STYLE ALERT! COBANO DISTRESSED Stretch denim shorts with a distressed mid wash. Designed with RUFSKIN’s signature low-rise fit, back yoke side revolver and back welt pocket. Branded antique hardware and leatherette patch. Button-fly. Pre-washed.Made in California. 

My very first reblog review was a pair of Rufskin jeans, and with summer now coming up, it seems fitting to do a reblog review of these Rufskin jorts! X-D

The material is stretch denim and seems in the style of skinny jeans – it looks tight, but comfortably so! The legs are a bit shorter than what I’d want for a pair of shorts, but it looks like this is meant to be more like trunks than like shorts, and the look works. Certainly showing off a lot of leg with these!

Last note: it’s a button fly. Also something I find incredibly hot.

Utility – Striped Boxers – Blue – Medium?

041

Material: So old that the tag is unreadable and the brand doesn’t seem to exist anymore, but I’m guessing it’s close to 100% cotton.
Aesthetic: A little loose from its age, but I do generally like the look of boxers with relatively fine vertical striping. It’s a nice color combination too, and even when the fabric wasn’t loose with age, it looked as soft and breathable as it felt.
Waistband: Also loose with age, but overall a really nice, soft, relatively thin waistband, especially as true boxers’ waistbands tend to go.
Pouch: NA, since it’s a true boxer. In terms of your junk, thankfully it’s a loose boxer instead of a tight boxer, (by design this time, not just from age,) so everything hangs pretty freely.
Backside: Relatively flat since it’s a true boxer, (and not like a modern one that’s designed to be more form-fitting,) but it’s incredibly comfortable.
Legs: Could maybe be a bit longer, but are wide and non-restricting like you would expect from traditional true boxers.
Overall: 4/5 – despite being older than my high school degree and stretched loose with age, I do love this pair. At some point, I’ll need to find a good successor pair.

James Tudor – Military Brief – Navy – Small

040

Material: 95% Cotton, 5% Elastane, I believe – I say that because the tag on both pairs of this that I own washed away very quickly, and James Tudor’s website is no longer up. This mix of material is what I can see on general underwear sales sites, though, so I’m fairly confident in it. The pair doesn’t feel quite as cotton-y as you’d expect, because everything is on the thicker side and seems to have a surface treatment of sorts, but it’s all still very soft and comfortable.
Aesthetic: I LOOOOOVE the look of this design! The front flap panel with buttons up both sides is incredibly unique (and moderately suggestive) with some very classy trimming around the flap, up the front right below the waistband, and along the edges of the backside. The font on the waistband is also a rather nice touch.
Waistband: A little on the tighter and stiffer side, but overall still fairly comfortable. The tightness could very well be from the fact that it’s a small instead of my normal medium.
Pouch: The nature of the flap fly, combined with how thick and soft the flap itself is, means there’s little to no shape at all to the front of this pair – it’s nearly a joke to call it a “pouch” like most of the underwear I’ve reviewed have. From the left and middle panels of the image above, you can probably tell that it’s supposed to be fairly flat. That said, it’s still absolutely amazing. It’s padded enough that it doesn’t feel incredibly restrictive, and the innovative flap/fly design honestly holds you in place very comfortably. From the inside, there’s an un-piped opening like in the Jack Adams Core line, leaving your willie to sit comfortably between the flap and the rest of the brief for most of the day. Need to use the restroom or otherwise get access? The buttons are really easy to use, and unlike with vertical flys, the two-sided design lets you pick which way your willie leans.

You really only need to undo just one of the six buttons to use the fly, but two (on the same side) is better – and you can get QUITE a lot of access by undoing all six buttons! At that point, you’re essentially dealing with a crotchless brief that happens to have a flap hanging off of it. All in all, very comfy and very easy to use.
Backside: A little on the tight side, but that might be because this is a “small” pair instead of my normal “medium”.
Legs: The leg opening here are also a little on the tight side, more so in crotch area than around the back of the leg openings. I’m not sure if moving makes you more conscious of the tightness, or if movement relieves consistent tightness. X-D
Overall: 3.5/5 – I’ll give this pair the benefit of the doubt and say that the tightness is just from the sizing. As such, a slight knock on the material is generally overcome by the great look and flap-pouch.
Great for: Sexy wear, Sex wear(?)
Good for: Everyday wear, Activewear, Loungewear

The Ellen line of boxer briefs has always seemed similar to the Mossimo line from Target, with a hint of Calvin Klein – comfortably somewhere between plain and outlandishly colorful, and fairly plain cut-wise but seemingly made from very comfy material. I definitely want a pair, and this guy lounging here is certainly doing a very good job of making them look veeerrry appealing…

2(x)ist – Pima Cotton Boxer – White – Medium

021

Material: 100% pure cotton, and boy does it show! It’s comfy enough that I’ve bought two other pairs of this, one another white and one a blue.
Aesthetic: Honestly, probably some of the least exciting-looking underwear I own. Someone who wears this has to be really confident to sell the look well. I generally think solid colors can be good since they let other aspect of a pair stand out – but when you’re talking about true boxer shorts, the general looseness means nothing stands out unless you try drawing attention to it.
Waistband: A bit bunch-ier than all of the other waistbands I’ve seen. Not really uncomfortable in any way, but if you don’t like any more material than necessary, you might not like it. Still, great sizing, and sits on the waist.
Pouch: Or, rather, the lack thereof. It’s a true boxer, so it’s entirely loose and flat. The material is super-soft, though, so it’s still a great feeling against your junk nonetheless.
Backside: I mean, it’s a true boxer, so there’s not much to write about here either. The seam just on the sides of the back panel look very nice, though, a good frame for your backside.
Legs: Good length and moderately loose – not so tight that it stops feeling like a true boxer, but still slim enough that it won’t feel bulky in your pants.
Overall: 3.5/5 – as an average. If you like true boxer shorts, then I could see this as a 4.5/5, but if you don’t, then I guess it’s a 2/5. All depends on the kids of support and breathing room you like in your underwear. Either way, I definitely love the material (hence having three pairs).

We make stretch jeans. 

Okay, so this isn’t underwear, but I reeeaaally like this pic and this pair of jeans… I’ve mentioned before that I like the look of demin, and the relative novelty of a button fly on a pair of pants is just rrrrrrrrrr…. >-) Very, very sexy IMO. (And the fact that the model here is commando helps… yes, I’m an undies fan, but I get pretty turned on by seeing someone “ready for fun” enough to go commando too.) I imagine, based on this pic, that this pair probably makes your ass look pretty good, too. And the apparent stretchiness would certainly be a plus! The stiffness of jeans – particularly in the waistband and crotch – is often a reason I don’t like any particular pair of jeans.
