I got these Hanes x-temp things that several years ago that were the best I’d ever had, but they’ve changed them up so they’re mostly plasticy now.

it’s expensive buying different brands to find when you like, what have you all found? bonus points if you live in a place we’re going outside inevitably means swamp crotch

    I live in Florida so I get the swamp crotch concerns. My answer? All Citizens. All the way. I was a boxers guy forever because I hated how boxer briefs felt. Riding up all the time, squeezed my junk in uncomfortable ways. All Citizens converted me because they fixed all of this. They’re now my favorite underwear and I’ve basically replaced my drawer with them.

    For note, I tried All Citizens, Pair of Thieves, Tommy John, and BN3TH. All Citizens blew them all out of the water. Their Elite line is solid for the price. Their Apex are my favorite though, but also the priciest. They have some anti radiation lining in the ball pouch and silver fabric that apparently reduces odor in the Apex line. Personally I think that’s just marketing bs, but the ball pouch is noticeably comfier than the Elite line. Overall, I don’t think you can go wrong regardless of what you pick. Highly recommend.

      lol I looked them up and it just says “space suit quality odor control”. I’m guessing it’s just copper ions?

        I think they’re just referring to the silver lined fabric they’re using? Again I dunno, it’s probably just marketing bs, but shit’s comfy, I’ll tell you that.

        I basically don’t even notice I’m wearing it most of the time because of how form fitting it is, which good underwear should feel like imo
