Men's underwear

High-quality men's underwear

The choice of material in men's underwear affects both comfort throughout the day and the product's lifespan. Many boxer shorts and undershirts are made of mercerized cotton, which is a treated cotton that feels softer and lasts longer than regular cotton. Some products contain PIMA cotton, a long-staple cotton type that provides extra softness and strength in the fabric. Other models have a blend with Tencel Lyocell fibers along with cotton, which creates a silk-soft feel against the skin.

For colder conditions, there are products from the Woolen Silk collection by Hanro, which contain 70% merino wool and 30% silk. Merino wool is a fine and soft wool type that regulates temperature naturally - it keeps you warm when it is cold, and cool when it is warm. The material also absorbs moisture, which helps keep the skin dry throughout the day. The silk in the blend adds a luxurious feel and contributes to temperature regulation.

The construction varies between models. Some boxer shorts are without a fly, which gives a clean and minimalist design. Others have a double-sewn front for tailored support. Several products have seamless sides and back, which ensures a smooth silhouette under clothing and avoids chafing under the arms on the undershirts. In addition to boxer shorts and undershirts, the category also includes tank tops, pajamas, and leggings designed for men.

Soft and breathable cotton underwear for men

Many of the boxer shorts and undershirts in the category are made of cotton in different qualities and treatments. Mercerized cotton is a chemically treated cotton type, where the fibers have been swollen and smoothed through a process with sodium hydroxide. This treatment gives the fabric a smooth surface with a subtle silky sheen and a denser fiber structure than untreated cotton. Some MEN'S COTTON ESSENTIALS models use this material treatment.

PIMA cotton is a specific cotton variant that is primarily grown in Peru, USA, and Australia. This cotton type is characterized by extra long fibers - typically 34-35 millimeters compared to regular cotton fibers of 22-28 millimeters. The long fibers result in a more densely woven fabric with an even, uniform texture and a matte to slightly shiny surface.

Some boxer shorts and Men's tank top models contain a blend of cotton with Tencel Lyocell fibers. Tencel Lyocell is a regenerated cellulose fiber type made from wood pulp through a chemical dissolution process. When this fiber is blended with cotton, it creates a fabric with a smooth, almost polished surface and a light sheen that resembles silk.

Form-fitting underwear with good support

Boxer shorts and undershirts in the category show variation in their construction details and material choices. Some models have a form-fitting silhouette with visible elastic edges at the waist and legs, while others have a looser construction. Several boxer shorts in the range have a front panel constructed with a double layer of fabric. This is seen as a thicker, more opaque section in the front, which visually differs from the single layers of fabric on the sides and back.

Boxer shorts and Men's briefs with seamless sides have a smooth, unbroken surface along the sides of the body without visible seams or edges. This construction is achieved through laser cutting or thermo bonding, where the fabric is joined without thread. Some Men's leggings use the same technique at the side and in the crotch for a streamlined look.

Warm underwear for men in wool and silk

Underwear in wool and silk visually differs from conventional cotton or synthetic underwear through the materials' inherent texture and light reflection. Merino wool has a matte, fine fiber structure with subtle variations in the surface structure, while silk contributes a subtle sheen and a smooth, almost fluid surface. The MEN'S WOOLEN SILK collection contains underwear with 70% merino wool and 30% silk, which gives a blend of the materials' different surface properties. The products in the collection are available in classic, neutral shades such as black, dark blue, and gray.

Merino wool has finer fibers than regular wool, typically 18-24 microns in diameter, which gives a denser and more uniform surface structure. The silk in the blend is often charmeuse-woven or satin-woven, which creates the characteristic sheen. The Woolen Silk collection includes tank tops, T-shirts with both short and long sleeves, as well as leggings. Many undershirts from the Men's undershirts collection have minimal visible seams, which gives a clean, unbroken surface.

Boxer shorts with patterns

Patterned boxer shorts provide the opportunity to add personality to the underwear wardrobe. The range spans from classic checkered designs in gray and white shades to bolder abstract patterns with color combinations such as dark blue, light blue, and orange. Some boxer shorts have an all-over striped or wavy pattern, which creates a modern look, while other models stick to traditional checkered designs in woven fabric. Boxer shorts with visible branding on the waistband, as found in the MEN'S FANCY WOVEN collection, combine patterns with a subtle brand identity.

Solid-colored underwear for a timeless look

Solid-colored underwear in classic shades constitutes the foundation of most underwear drawers. Black, white, gray, and dark blue are the most versatile colors, as they match most outerwear and do not create visible lines under light clothing. The solid-colored models are available both as form-fitting boxer shorts with an elastic waistband and as classic boxers in woven fabric with a button closure. Men's bottoms include both shorts and briefs in a solid-colored design. White and light shades are suitable for summer use under light clothing, while black and dark blue models are more versatile year-round.

How do you choose the right underwear for men?

The choice of underwear affects both everyday comfort and how the clothing fits on the outside. You will find both form-fitting boxer shorts with a short leg length and looser models with a traditional fit in men's boxer shorts. The form-fitting models provide a streamlined silhouette under tight pants, while the loose boxers with woven fabric and button closure offer a more classic construction with good air circulation.

The material in the underwear has a direct influence on comfort, durability, and functionality. Many boxer shorts from MEN'S COTTON SPORTY are made of mercerized cotton. For cold weather, there is underwear from the Woolen Silk collection with 70% merino wool and 30% silk - a combination that regulates temperature naturally and absorbs moisture.
