over the weekend I was wearing an old pair of lululemon undies and I find them more comfortable than my saxx and they are about $6 cheaper.

I find my saxx a little on the snug side and the material of mine is a little on the thicker side - maybe another model of saxx would be a better choice for me.....

Didn't like that pair of Saxx that I had. The little sack pocket, or whatever it's called, seemed like a great idea but to me just felt like they were riding up on me all the time, even though they weren't. Then they got a hole in them after just a few weeks.

These are still the best underwear I've ever had. I'll have to give mypakage a try but they seem a tad expensive

Wait a minute, I've been buying from John's all my life and now I'm missing out on sweet discounts being a CP member?

The two pack of Joe Boxer boxer briefs for $30 at The Bay do me just fine.

Do you wash one while wearing the other, or go commando laundry day?

Does the Flames not in the playoffs have a huge impact on our lives these days?

Why are we deduced into talking about Speedos and underwear?

Hey, that's not fair. We also talk about deodorant.

I stopped by atmosphere yesterday and noticed that they were selling a brand of saxx for $44 - I have to admit I was stunned at the price since I am used to seeing this brand at around $30 at most retailers. that is way more than I would pay for undies

44?! Good lord.

My girlfriend bought me two pairs of Saxx for $30 each from Nordstrom. Best underwear I've ever owned!

Ok so I still haven't switched over to saxx, I like my current sets of joe boxers. However I switched from loose fitting boxers to much tighter briefs about a year or two ago and I can't imagine going back. It is like the Louis CK bit. i can't imagine having my junk just swinging around down there getting scrunched up and having that constant qtr cup of water just sloshing around.

Anyway, I've also recently moved to much tighter undershirts. But not just the regular cotton kind. I've recently discovered compression shirts and they have changed my life. I now wear these for my undershirts and I love it.

I used to wear the walmart special, Haynes or Jockey, the v neck undershirts that are cheap and quite loose fitting like a tshirt almost.

I had started wearing undershirts when I had to start wearing dress shirts every day a number of years ago. However in the last few years I've moved to wearing an undershirt at all times, even with tshirts, polos etc. Problem was two fold, the undershirts were a bit too baggy when wearing with a tshirt and they seemed to get "caught" on the tshirt fabric causing them to fit a bit weird and constantly stretching and ruining the necks on my tshirts. It also is quite warm in the summer doubling up with a cotton undershirt and a tshirt. But I like not having my tshirts get ruined with pit stains so I dealt with it. Then I somehow discovered compression shirts and UA makes one specifically that is meant as an "undershirt". I find the compression shirts to be way more comfortable and cool. My tshirts now slide right on with no bunching and I stay nice and cool even in warm weather.

That's my cool story bro post for the day.

I have some to my hilfiger undershirts that are more of a compression type fit, and they seem to be more of a technical fabric.

I recently saw sad undershirts somehweRe (sportchek?) and I am sure they were ~$40 ish, which I thought was too much.

Lately I have been liking lululemon undies more than saxx

Has Lulu changed their design? I tried a couple pairs 4 years ago and there was absolutely zero support, might as well have been freeballing. Complete opposite of Saxx/Mypackage, but maybe that's a good thing if you're doing hot yoga?

Saxx for the win!

Do many people wear undershirts? I don't like the look of a shirt beneath a dress shirt, and I hate the feel of layering dress clothes. Similar to panty lines on girls, I wouldn't want to show undershirt lines on my dress shirt if I went with the tank top/sleeveless version. Why wouldn't you just want to wear a dress shirt?

Northendzone · 07-19-2016, 10:45 AM

I almost always wear an undershirt - it will sometimes save you from pit stains.

not sure I Lulu changed their design or not. I guess I ultimately like the fabric that the shorts are made out of more than the saxx one I have (maybe my saxx are the lower cost version that have a lower quality fabric)

I wear the v neck tshirt style of undershirt and there are no lines. Unless you wear really thin dress shirts or really tight dress shirts I can't imagine lines would be visible. That's also where slim fit or compression shirts come in. They are designed like a second skin and shouldn't show anything even if you do wear skin tight dress shirts.

Wearing an undershirt helps preserve the shirts by minimizing pit stains. And it isn't even solely a sweat problem. I find most of my shirts eventually get ruined because of the antiperspirant leaving traces.
