Bamboo Rayon Basic Trunks

Most men probably wear "department store" underwear they grab in a 12-pack whenever they need new ones. Or, their wive or girlfriend picks up whatever is inexpensive when they're out shopping for other things, because so many guys can't be bothered to do it themselves. Either way, the result is lots of guys wear whatever they happened to get, or stick to whatever they're used to out of habit. Tighty-whities (even the colored variety) cab bind and chafe, especially in hot weather. Loose fitting boxers can leave the twig and berries shifting around awkwardly and uncomfortably, and do little-to-nothing to "drain the swamp" when temperatures rise. The fact of the matter is that most men's "department store" underwear really isn't comfortable, fits poorly, and doesn't really seem to take actual anatomy into account very well. So when these were on a flash sale, I bought a set, thinking that the "bamboo" (actually a form of rayon derived from bamboo) might prove to be more comfortable than either poorly constructed cotton, or hot, sweaty, synthetic. I'm quite pleased to say that David Archy has developed a really good product. Bamboo fiber is softer than equivalent cotton products, and, just like the rayon used for the best of traditional Hawaiian shirts, wicks moisture and helps to keep you cool in hot weather. Fit is perhaps very slightly tighter than what many men may be used to, but the design keeps the "family jewels" supported and doesn't bind or chafe. Seam placement throughout is excellent, no chafing from that, either. Pay attention to the size chart for these. It's pretty much right on the money and you should order based on your waist size. You might assume when un-boxing that you've received the wrong size: these have quite a lot of stretch and therefore appear smaller than they actually are. I found that although the fit was more snug than I expected, for a boxer-brief style, the closer fit resulted in them being more comfortable, rather than less. If in doubt, or if you think you may want a looser fit, order the next size up. Well worth the price, and I've even purchased a second set at their "regular" price.

If you've read other reviews, you'll find the following comments: 1. The legs are short. They are. I prefer that. Other manufacturers call these 'boxer briefs' or 'trunks', and being a shorter man (with long torso but very short legs), I don't like underwear that has 6" legs because it's halfway to my knees. These are short. They do ride up a bit, but the fabric is so thin, it's not uncomfortable for me. 2. They're cut differently, so your package is, well, more pronounced. That's very true. I put them on and I was pretty darn surprised; so was my wife. Like I was ready to be filmed. It's not uncomfortable at all, neither in shorts, sweats, or tighter jeans. I will say that, if you're looking for actual lifting support (like you'd find in a jock strap), look elsewhere. Your cash & prizes are free to float around in the lovely, generously-sized, comfortable pouch that these things provide, but they don't hold everything up tight against your body. 3. The fact that your package is, well, 'packaged' in a nice comfortable pouch is exactly what I want. Even when the leg rides up a bit, your package is nicely wrapped in comfortable fabric, so nothing sticks to your leg, even if you are active and sweating. 4. No-fly with a seam down the middle. Yep. All true. For me, that's excellent. I find that the reinforcement bead that they put on the inside of fly underwear actually chafes my 'stuff', especially if I'm running. This pouch is perfectly smooth, even the seam. They did a great job on the stitching of the seam so it's really smooth and doesn't feel any different than the smooth fabric. And dropping the waistband down to use a urinal is trivial; easier, actually, than yanking your johnson left and right through a fly-maze. 5. The waistband is excellent. Very stretchy, but not tight. And it doesn't roll over or fold in half like so many other trunks I've tried. I have only been using these for a few days, so I haven't seen how they hold up after 10-20 washes, but man, are they comfortable! If they hold up to two washes, I'm buying a few more packs.

I have a set of sheets made of bamboo which I absolutely love. I randomly started looking for bamboo-made clothing and got a couple of shirts, which I now can't live without. I like trunk-styled underwear so I started to look for a brand made the same way. In the mean-time, I have been losing weight and I'm in a weird spot between medium and large in an increasing number of items. On instinct, I got large, and after the first wash, they fit pretty good but maybe not as snug as I prefer for an active day. Unfortunately they do stretch out a bit after a day of use. With the initial wear, I filled out the front pouch nicely. After the stretch-out, the extra room made me feel entirely inadequate and slightly insecure. The fit had become like a kid in his dad's coat. It was like storing a hot dog in a suitcase. Thankfully I was the only one that saw it as far as I know. In the end, the sting remains, but I relegated the large sized ones to sleepwear and ordered mediums. I really like them either way. Great purchase. Super comfortable.

Comfort and good quality.

They have a silky feel, so they are a little slippery on the thighs which may cause it to ride up, but besides that, they're very comfortable, the cut is great, plenty of room in the pouch, and they've held up to 2 washes so far.

The dimensions are as written.

These are now my favorite underwear. Soft and comfortable but supportive. I hardly notice I'm wearing them. This is my new brand!

Very satisfied.

Muy buena calidad.

Material felt really thin or flimsy and I kept getting a wedgie. Not a fan of these

My husband loves these trunks. We initially bought them in modal which were fantastic and came back to buy more, but are now in bamboo rayon. Also very comfy.

Très legerte et confortable ….c’est mon 2e set que j’achète et je ne porte que celle la maintenant je les recommandes
