And having had this discussion with many guys (hey, we do talk a lot about what we wear for underwear), it seems if your proportions skew to being bigger on the "pair" then mypakage may work better, but if your ratio skews toward the "solo" then saxx may be your preference.

Love 'em. Sometimes your balls and thighs need some time apart.

Got one pair and didn't see the big deal about 'em until I went on a 8+ hour flight in economy class.

They're my go to airplane underwear now.

A quick snapshot of 10 pairs of $25 briefs lying neatly on your bed would be sufficient.

Or just a pic of you lying in bed wearing them would be sufficient for me?

Never heard of Saxx underwear, but have to recommend Patagonia, they are so comfortable and last forever. Got my first pair 10 years ago, still going strong. Keep asking for a pair for Christmas every year, so I'm up to 10 of them. They are $35 bucks, but when they can last 10+ years without wearing out, that's just economical! Plus they have fun designs on them, and are way, way more comfortable than any other underwear I've ever tried. Have them in both boxer and boxer-brief styles

Kermitolgy - where? I've been hearing varying costs - $25-$35/pair.

I work for Sport Chek, so it's cost plus 10% for me.

Please don't do this, you don't have to do this. Out of all the things on the internet, the claim of buying a lot of expensive underpants doesn't need to be proved.

I bought these a number of years ago and found the seams to pronounced so they would show through on tighter jeans. I also find them a little hot for my liking generally.

Damn Minnie. I could of brought some SAXX for you at a CP discount. We sell a tonne of them in my shop and have killed my other boxer business. I prefer the Ultra or Vibe style though, it's rayon from bamboo so it has a softer feel than the cotton ones.


Edit: that's where the cost difference comes from is the fabric type.

The orange and grey workout ones are just about the best workout boxer briefs there are (besides Reebok)

Why this thread isn't called "Let's talk about Saxx, Baby" I'll never understand.

A lit of places have them - spareparts, sportchek, west 49, below the belt - but I found the Intersport at North Hill mall of all places has the widest range and best selection. Dpareparts is nice because you can compare them to my pakage to see which material you may like best around your boys ( by hand...of course)

I just did my Christmas shopping last night and picked some up at Sully's in CrossIron Mills. They also had both Saxx and MyPakage so you can see the differences.

Also, i heard they are discontinuing the Weekend version of MyPakage to try and promote the active version.

How many guys, me included, that have never heard of SAXX Underwear are considering buying a pair after reading this thread? What a clever marketing ploy to conquer and divide! Minnie, are you in the pocket of SAXX Underwear? Admit it!

Nope, no underwear should last you for 10 years, especially ones that look like that.

Sorry.
