That’s crazy, do you have like, 4 clothing items that you just wear over and over again? And you soil them badly enough when you wear them to have to do laundry multiple times a week?

Our usual routine is to do laundry every second Sunday. I can’t imagine what kind of life a person must be living to have to wash their clothes more than once a week. Do you use your one good shirt as a napkin? How much water and electricity do you go through running virtually empty loads through your machines? Or do you have a family of 6 or 7 or something?

Yeah I'm probably in the minority the other way. For most people and for me before I used to do once a week.

But I work out everyday now on my treadmill and on a 7 incline. I get sweaty af now, so I have gym strip I go thru and my daily wear, and on top I'm now washing me and my wifes pillow cases every load. So every 3 days or so I have a big enough load and it helps with our faces not breaking out (from the pillow.. I guess I'm a greasy mofo).

Yeah it’s true, I don’t have any kids and it’s just the wife and I. So maybe that skews our perception. I was legitimately curious what was happening so that he had to do laundry 3 times per week!

CP to the rescue yet again.

BTW, I'm still following health guidelines of washing my hands
often and for 20 seconds, I'm wondering when they will allow us to shower again? Maybe the CP collective can help me with this too?

So the feel of the CK modal cotton boxer briefs seems very similar to that of the saxx I have, which seems like it's also made of modal and cotton blend. I'll give them a go tomorrow. So far I actually put Uniqlo below fruit of the loom. They seem super cheap to me.

So I tried out the Calvin Klein modal boxer briefs. They're nice but saxx is just better. Definitely better than uniqlo though

edit: the more i wear the CK's the more i like them. if they were cheaper than saxx i think i'd go with these... but only if a lot cheaper.

I wear BN3TH which used to be MyPakage. I find them comfy and only complaint is in a couple of them, the fabric gave out along a seam after about 2 years of use. Not sure if that's a good lifetime for a pair of underwear or not. I have some that are coming up on 4 years and still going strong.

I have to agree that the Saxx seem to be the most durable. I actually find Denver Hayes to be more comfortable but they wear out the fastest of all the brands I have used.

I replaced all my boxer briefs slowly through a MeUndies monthly membership. Best decision I ever made. I used to wear Saxx (and to a smaller extend MyPackage) but I found that Saxx really had a tendency to ride up and I hate that. Went to MeUndies and have never looked back.

All citizens came in the mail today. It feels more like yoga pants. Super soft but a little too like nylon. I ordered a b3neath that will be here next week.

So far my ranking, irrespective of price

Saxx
Calvin Klein
All Citizens
Uniqlo

If Saxx are still your top rated, you have to try 2UNDR! They blow them away.

I am actually really pumped to try them, they're tagless! I hate tags!

The all citizens shot up to number 1 because they hid the tag in the front, where they have a horizontal fly.

This is the last pair of underwear I order. I swear lol.
