Style: There are three main styles of men’s underwear, and they are predominantly defined by how each one is designed to fit. Below, I’ve found the best options in all categories based on fit, feel, and style by talking to stylists, fitness professionals, and other discerning and active men about the underwear they like best.īest overall boxer briefs | Best ultrathin boxer briefs | Best designer multipack boxer briefs | Best less expensive multipack boxer briefs | Best performance boxer briefs | Best overall boxers | Best less expensive boxers | Best overall trunks | Best overall briefs Because the nature of underwear makes it difficult to return if you don’t like how it fits, thinking about which length, style, and level of support you need is key to avoiding wedgies and the urge to constantly adjust your underwear. I’m not here to settle the great brief-versus-boxer debate which cut you prefer will always be a matter of preference. But those words mean different things for different people. Much like socks, the best men’s underwear should be comfortable, durable, and stylish.
Trying to label a pair of underwear “the best” is a near-impossible task. Photo-Illustration: The Strategist Photos: Retailers
