Men's No Ride Up Boxer Brief

Well it’s about time that someone came up some ideas to improve men’s underwear. It’s no surprise these innovations come from one of the big three names that dominate the product category. There are several reasons why I dislike wearing underwear and near the top of the list is lack of ventilation. Yes there are those brands that are all or mostly mesh but they’re not very durable and in some case they are actually uncomfortable. What we’ve always needed is to have built in air conditioning right at those places we need it most. These recognize that, at least partially, by sewing in a ventilated area at the pouch, which they do without sacrificing structural strength or comfort of the all important support area. Now if they would only do the same thing to ventilate the crack the same way.REALITYOther than the small mesh area these are very much just ordinary underwear that are 90% cotton and 10% polyester. They look, feel and fit like any other similar pair. Their claim that they don’t ride up seems to be accurate, of course everybody’s body is different so there are no guarantees they will fit you like they fit me. These share a common trait I’m seeing lately in that they ride very low on the hips, especially in the back. That’s not a problem for me, I’m not into showing off the label on the band.So what about that mesh area? To me it looks and feels exactly like the rest of the shorts, and doesn’t really look like a mesh at all. The product label says that area is 94% cotton and 6% polyester, which isn’t a lot different from the rest of the fabric. So in other words, that advantage that I talked about of built in air conditioning seems more like marketing promises than anything that really makes a difference.VALUEStart by understanding that there are 29 different style choices of 5-packs here, available in either regular fly, Coolzone fly or traditional fly ranging in price from 9.99 to 49.99. That means every review you read may be for a different product. So to be clear, mine are the model they call “No Ride Up Boxer Brief Black/Gray Coolzone Fly Large”. That model goes for 14.99 for five boxers, or three bucks a pair. That is an exceptionally good value for name brand shorts and that is the main reason I like them. Would I buy them anyway if it wasn’t for the mesh feature – yes. Would I buy them only because of the mesh feature – no.

I agree with all the recent reviews. The boxers themselves are comfortable but the band around the legs are prohibitively tight and make them unwearable. I am skinny and yet these bands are super tight, I cannot imagine what they must do to people with norma I am skinny and yet these bands are super tight, I cannot imagine what they must do to people who don’t have skinny legs. A complete disaster

I think they are comfortable, will probably buy more soon. I wear a 32 waist in Levi jeans, but I'm glad I got these in a LARGE. They fit perfect, but according to their size chart I should of gotten a medium. I'm sure a medium would of been too tight, especially in the thigh. The size large waist is perfect for me.

These used to be my favorite boxer briefs. I just reordered without thinking about it, dependable product. But I just got these ones and they've been ruined. First, the legs are much longer, which I guess is fine, but there's some stitch or seam in the back of one of the legs that will itch you like crazy.Secondly, my junk keeps falling out of these things! The front opening barely has any overlap between the two pieces of fabric, so it's constantly opening and can't hold me in. This is really the primary purpose of underwear: keep the naughty bits protected. If you can't do that, I just can't buy these again.No, Amazon, I will not add a photo.

Since I was on the smaller side of the XL I thought I would be fine. Not so. XL chart says 40-42 waist. Maybe if your legs are super slim. Just ill fitting all over. Maybe XXl would work. Not interested in finding out. Had to pop the seem around the legs to keep them from being super uncomfortable. They will soon find their way to the garbage.

My husband has been wearing these for years. They changed the cut to be tighter and longer in the waist and legs. He refuses to wear these new ones. Both in the picture are the same size, older style on the left, new on the right.

To start this off, I wear anywhere from a 30"-33" waist depending on what it is I am wearing and who manufactures it.Going by the size chart, I ordered a medium, which by the size charts should fit a waist size of 32"-34" which seems to be just a random number being used as each pair has a different fit on the waist. Each pair that I have worn has had a different fit on the waist and on the thigh.The bands that are present on these are very uncomfortable. The first pair I had tried on had a relatively relaxed fit, both on the waist and thigh, but every subsequent one has had a different feeling. There is absolutely no stretch present on the waist band, which seems to be significantly smaller than what you would expect from the waist size. After wearing one pair of these for nearly an hour, I had to take them off due to a uncomfortable indentation I got from them riding up my legs and squeezing into my thighs.The material feels very cheaply made. From just one touch, the underwear feels like a ragged old pair that has spent years going through washing machines and punishment. Overall, from just an hour of use, these boxers felt like they were already ready to be thrown away.

Bought a couple of packs of these. They look great and fit snugly which is exactly what I wanted. The problem is an hour after putting them on the legs stretch out and ride up which it what is exactly oppoaite of what is advertised for these briefs. They do bounce back when washed and dried, but they always stretch out at the bottom of the leg not long after putting them on. I would buy another brand or style if this is something you do not want.

Never got what i ordered as the colours are nothing like those available, instead received 2,packets x 3 of something else that were not upto the quality of previous ones i've had and including some real tasteful orange striped numbers (Not). That said i'm of an age where the colour doesn't matter a jot and it gave the supplier the chance to get rid of a few of them and i did get an extra pair, so alls good.

For years I have only worn Brooks Brothers boxers bought in the USA. Covid stopped that. These represent my fourth try at finding an adequate replacement. They are! Very good design. Good support and comfortable. Excellent product.

My 3rd order of these. This time the leg cuffs were sown using non stretch thread making them too tight around the thigh. Had to stretch them and heard stitching pop. Hope they last after this :-(

I wear size S (28 to 30 waistband) but If you want to purchase order a number above instead

Perfect - whenever I go to the states I buy some of these as they always fit perfectly and good price. Never see these in the UK in shops so was over the moon Amazon have these available. BANG ON.
