I just picked up some boxer briefs for the first time and I'm a little unsure on something. I expected these to be somewhat tighter. My waist size is like 35 so I went with the 36-38 pair, figuring that'd be less tight around the waist. The waist feels just fine, however the rest isn't as tight as I thought.
I bought these because I go mountain biking quite a bit, and more times than not I've had my nuts slap against my seat when I jump logs and stuff, and it's VERY VERY painful. I mean don't get me wrong, they're nicer than boxers, more comfortable. I feel like I get a better range of motion because they don't bunch up like hell, but like I said, I just expected them to be tighter. Maybe that's because all of the pictures on the front of the boxer brief packages at wal mart? I guess I just got the assumption these would be tight as hell? Unless, maybe I should try hanes? I got some puritan's... not sure if that'd matter, though.
