So I need briefs for my junk. And I considered it. But what it comes down to is that I can’t go straight up briefs a la “Tighty Whitey” because I have too much pride. So I am going boxer briefs and so far the results are favorable.
Anybody that thinks cotton briefs are good enough for the road needs only to wear cotton briefs once to know that cotton briefs are not good enough for the road. What is needed is a good pair of synthetic briefs, the kind that wicks the moisture the hell off your body and straight out of your pants. The kind of material that actually makes your body drier the longer you wear it.
I’m placing my bets on the Eastern Mountain Sports “Techwick Body” Boxer Short. Made almost entirely of polyester, but with a touch of spandex to keep a man honest, these boxers have superior wicking capabilities that result in low overall moisture and thus a quick drying time. The shorts fit close to the body so that they don’t ride up when you toss on your biker tights, but they also don’t fit so close that you can’t breath because your package is coming out your shirt collar and blocking your Adams Apple, if you know what I’m talking about.
I got 3 pairs for good measure – black, blue and gray. With these boxers added into the mix, my entire outfit is now synthetic and wick’d out like nobody’s business. Yes, the sweat will be propelled so fast from my body that from far away I’ll look like a god damn comet blazing across the plains in all of my dewy splendor.
