According to researchers, there are over 700 styles of underwear on the market today, and many more places to purchase it. The terminology is endless and the 3-pack bargain packages are no longer the only option that a man has when it is time to purchase underwear. So making a choice on the right pair can be difficult, and what does your underwear say about you?
While the jock is out looking for the same performance qualities for his under-layers that he has in his outer layers, aiming for support and security with a good range of motion, the trendsetter is focusing on the newest colors, patterns and styles, to make a statement. The traditionalist has a tendency to stick with the basics. He likes the boxer shorts, briefs or maybe even the boxer briefs, and probably in the most common colors of black, white or gray.
With the softer fabrics and gaining popularity of tagless waistbands, it’s getting easier and easier for men to find that perfect pair of underwear. In fact, some men find more than just one. Perhaps one pair for evening-wear and another for the office; a third for the gym and a fourth for that romantic weekend. Whatever your fashion is, there are many different styles and designs that incorporate an array of fabric wicking blends, pouch styles and other enhancements – all available in almost every imaginable color and print. With so many choices available, the question might soon be, “What doesn’t your underwear say about you?”


Hi there, Great article. Hey, what style of 2xist’s is this guy wearing. They look great????
Thanks! These briefs would be the Contour Pouch Briefs. They are a great style and come from the 2(x)ist Essentials collection. Sometimes less is more, especially with a body like that.
