2(X)ISTMen's Cotton Stretch Boxer Brief 3-pack
M**.
Most comfortable boxer briefs I've worn... except...
So I bought the 2(x)ist stretch boxer briefs out of curiosity. I'm more a fan of their regular briefs, but I figured I'd try something stylish for a change.The style and cut of these boxers lives up to what I expected from 2(x)ist. They're sexy, look good, and they feel comfortable. They hug my skin, and keep my buddy snug. While the description does mention their contour pouch, I feel like it didn't accentuated and cup my johnson the way the briefs do (and that might very well be due to the cut itself). However, these boxer briefs (unlike the FOTL and Champion brands I've worn before) do keep your junk where it's supposed to be. The material felt breathable, and I didn't feel like my nether region was suffocating for air. They were kept quite comfortable and dry.Unfortunately, there are a couple of things that make me wonder if my experience with these boxer briefs are due to poor quality or just the type of material used. For one, today I noticed a hole form in the taint area of the boxer brief. This was after only one wash, so it surprised me that this happened so quickly (their briefs by comparison have lasted me years without this issue, but the material was not "stretch"). I would have accepted this to happen had I been active and sweating, but wearing this pair while working from home, walking to and from the kitchen and living room, should not have caused it. Also happening after one wash, the leg openings would ride up a bit. This is more noticeable when standing up from a seated position. While they don't bunch up or shift around, I still found myself readjusting now and then. The last thing I found "displeasing" was the white line across the waist of the boxer. While the boxer briefs look sexy, this line takes attention away from everything else (IMO). It just also, personally, doesn't look eye pleasing.Overall, I feel this is a good product. While there are a couple of misses, I would recommend you give them a try over the low-cost options out there. Add a bit of sexy for yourself, and your loved one (unless you like looking like that dad that thinks he's cool, but shows his age and lack of sex appeal with a cheap alternative).

Good Underwear for the Price
I've recently tried several brands of more expensive undewear (than hanes), looking for something really comfortable (Lacoste, Jack Wills, RLTD, Saxx, etc). These are nice underwear for lounging, but I noticed them riding up while I was on the move (running/jogging). Lacoste is about the same price but did not have this problem, so I'd recommend you to look there if that is a concern for you.If you have the money, Saxx was far superior (their pouch cradles the junk much better and makes it look more aesthetic) - but don't waste your time on Jack Wills or RLTD as both of them were uncomfortable (especially RLTD - which had abrasive seams).

Bye bye Hanes and FTL!
These are probably the best boxer briefs I have ever worn. I really like how soft they are and that they don't ride up either in the back or on the thighs. The fabric is very fine and stretchy enough to fit right but not so much it ends up where it shouldn't be.I've seen some reviews saying their quality has gone down a lot but I don't see it. I think they may be confused between the cotton stretch line and the essential line. I have also purchased the essential ones and found them to be very comfortable as well because their cut is actually done with the intention of the underwear to be worn by humans.I think I'm done shopping at Walmart and Target for underwear. Hanes, Fruit of the Loom, Jockey, Champion, Starter, etc, all the big brands from mainstream big box stores dont come close to the quality of the 2(x)ist brand underwear. I have tried probably dozens of kinds of underwear and until now I wasn't happy with any of them. Now 2(x)ist is the last brand I will probably ever buy.Sure these cost a bit more than the value packs of Hanes that come in packs of 7 for like $15, but if the weave of the fabric shows up on my skin after sitting down, thats FAR too cheap and FAR too coarse of a weave, not to mention they start to fray and slowly disappear after 3 washes. You get what you pay for. The 2(x)ist boxer briefs seem like they would be much more durable based on how they are put together. Also not having a seam right in each cheek is very nice.All in all, if I buy these for $30 per year, more likely every other year, its way cheaper than $15 every 3 months to replace 7 pars from the value packs that the dryer ate after the leg seam got annihilated by getting in a car.

Warmth?
Why is "warmth" one of the rating factors for this product? Who wants warm boxer briefs? I'm asking this in the summer, so maybe I'll change my tune in the winter? But no, I've been in -20F weather and never said "Why aren't my genitals hotter?" I've never had a "my balls aren't hot enough" issue in my life. These do a decent job of being breathable and really comfy. Lent a buddy a pair cause they helped me move and needed a shower and they loved them. Asked my what brand it was. Seems like a pretty good recommendation to me. I also really like them.

Some good some bad
I think the quality and feel of the materials is spot on, good around the waist, enough pouch. That being said I can't wear these due to the ride up is too extreme and noticeable, especially working an active job. I can't wear these for that reason. I don't have this amount of ride up in similar style boxer briefs, so I'll have to blame their design. I've ordered a size up too see if this will help, but this is my correct fit and size so we'll see.

Great color and fit
Nice colors, comfy with good package support. They are breathable so the air flows well. I think they are worth the money and are many times better than any of the 6 for $10 underwear I have had before. I'll get more for sure assuming that these hold up well to the washerUPDATE August 2016: These are holding up great and am ordering more now. Don't confuse these with the cheaper 100% cotton made by 2(x)ist. In fact I am replacing the cotton pairs that I bought. The cotton shrinks and stretches out unlike these that are as soft now as when I got them. I'm not used to spending $10 a pair for underwear but these have been worth it!

The Only Underwear I Wear
Note: when ordering these, you want to make sure you're getting the "Stretch" briefs and not the "Essential" ones, I made the mistake once and hated the fit (maybe skinny guys will like the Essentials, but us bigger guys should stick to the Stretch).One of the few boxer briefs with a front pocket to accommodate us "bigger" (heh heh) packaged guys...

Muy resistentes
El producto es de gran calidad y comodidad, los he llevado durante mi jornada laboral y no puedo discutir lo cómodos que resultan estos boxer, han resistido lavadas a máquina y siguen manteniendo su elasticidad y forma

They tend to ride up and no fly. They are comfy though.
