This thread convinced me to go ahead and purchase some. I bought 3 different pairs. 24-7, Ultra, and Luxury at an average cost of roughly $30 per pair. Pretty sure I've been converted. The Luxury pair is made with the same material as my bed sheets, modal. Truly decadent stuff. The cost is justifiable because why not pay for a superior quality of underwear? You really do get what you pay for here.

I have a pair that I use for hockey. Keeps the boys in line with the cup, so you don't get the dreaded cup on nut pressure. It also stops ailments such as shifty-sack and leg/sack stickiness.

I wouldn't fork out $25 for everyday wear, but for special duty these things are great.

FYI, espy down in Inglewood is having a post-Boxing Day sale on the 27th. All their Saxx Underwear is Buy 1 Get 1. Half price is a smoking deal.

Their blazers are 50% off too.

Full Disclosure: They're a client but I wouldn't have posted here if the sale wasn't awesome.

Slipped into a pair of lulu lemon trunks today, and I forgot that they are somewhat comfortable, although they do not have any pouches or holsters and whatnot.......

I'm a bit of an underwear guy. I don't like cheap stuff. Fruit of the Loom? Haynes? Nope. I've got 5 pairs of Saxx, two are the platinum and if you have Saxx but not the platinum please go out immediately and buy a pair or two. For $25-$35 they are awesome. I also own 2 pairs of Lululemon boxers which are $35 a piece and they are delightfully comfortable, though the lack of sack makes it hard to justify buying more on the future. I've also owned several sets of Bjorn Borg ranging from $25-$40 and they were quite nice, though deteriorated rather quickly.

The nicest pair of boxers I have ever owned though, were Calvin Klein X-Air low rise Elements. Cost me almost $50 at the time, and they were totally worth it. They held strong for 6-7 years before I was finally forced to retire them. So comfy.

Honestly though, those two little swatches of very thin fabric make all the difference in the world. It's wonderful, and I'm glad the male underwear world is finally making strides.

Bought a pair a week ago. Pretty good stuff, don't like how they ride up but it's not as bad as other brands.

Going to order a pair of MeUndies, they're cheaper and I've heard they're better so going to see what they're like

I anyone else wants to try here's a 20% off link

Well, Minnie, your clever plan worked, I've succumbed to all the hype and ordered a few of those online. It better be as majestic as everyone says or you're in big trouble, Missy.

I like them, they are insanely comfortable like a good pair of pajama pants, but I've always been more of an Under Armour compression guy.

I guess I just don't like petroleum fiber on my private parts that much... Under Armour has really good cotton product too though but the supply is limited and it's almost impossible to get it in Canada, unfortunately, which is kinda stupid.

Is it a comfort/feel thing, or a absorption of chamicals thing s
