    Do what now? What’s wrong with Hanes and fruit of the loom? This is not something I knew people had strong opinions on.

        Dude, they’re good for a few years and then they just start falling apart. 2undr is way better. I had like 10 pairs of CK underwear and they all started falling apart at the same time. I had happened to buy the 2undr about a year before or something like that and they’ve been going strong for like 7 years now. They’re also way more fucking comfortable.

          Oh shit, I’ve owned them for less than a year now so haven’t seen that yet. Thanks for the heads up will check them out.

            yeah the CK underwear is good while it lasts, I loved them a ton, then they just started falling apart. I was really disappointed, especially with how much they cost. I am just waiting for the last few pairs of CK I have to get holes in them then I’ll be completely switched to 2undr. I haven’t had a single pair of 2undr get holes in them and I’ve owned several pairs for longer than some pairs of CK underwear.

  • IDK what a step up would be. It’s underwear. As long as it doesn’t chaff or crush my nuts or constantly ride up my crack, I’m happy. And since these also tend to be the cheapest brands with the most “bang for your buck,” I buy them. The only time I really changed underwear was discovering boxer briefs. Briefs chaff, boxers bunch up so I hated both. But boxer briefs are the middle ground that is perfection.

      Pair of Thieves and Volcom are good upgrades. Mainly because the material is more of a thinner silky material. Feels cooler in warm weather and dont chafe with sweat. I dont recommend buying them on their website but if you can get them from a place like burlington they are an amazing upgrade imo.

    I had a drawerful of FoTL boxer briefs in various colors that I bought in various quantities from the late 90’s to the mid-2010’s, replacing worn out ones as I went. In 2021, my wife bought me a pair of Duluth Trading Buck Naked boxer briefs for Christmas. After wearing them a few times, I dumped all my FoTL and bought 3 dozen pairs of Duluth, mostly Buck Naked but a few Armachillo as well. Best decision ever.

    Never. They are cheap and work, and nicer underwear isn’t so much nicer that it’s worth the extra money. It’s underwear, it’s not like other people are going to see it.
