Men amongst you, you love your boys, right? And who wouldn’t? They’re your ones-and-onlies, your beloveds…those boys. Female friends, perhaps you too love some boys. It’s not unheard of. This holiday season you have but one choice for the treasured boys in your life who need a little tender, loving support. Saxx Underwear Co. Trust me on this one.
Underwear? Yes, 21st-century pantaloons that are every bit the “life changing underwear” the website promises. Why? In two words: “comfort pouch.” Read on.
Any company can make undies out of fine fabrics. Many do just that. Saxx produces their man-panties in a variety of textiles, from ultra-soft “Modal” (a type of rayon) to performance-oriented Spandex-poly blends. Their products divide into two main categories — “Performance” and “Everyday.” I managed to snag a pair of the viscose-Spandex Everyday ones, and folks … my boys have never been happier.
I’ve been wearing my Saxx off-and-on for a couple months now and they’ve been through the washer maybe a dozen times. All seams, trim, and fabric doing great. Construction seems spot on. They’re Chinese made, but what isn’t these days?
And the comfort. Oh, the supportive, gentle, sweet caress of the “comfort pouch.” Think I’m joking? Try on a pair; you too will sing far-and-wide the praises of a weightless, fully ensconced ball bag. Giving them as a gift? You should be present when they’re first tried. There’s life before and life after the comfort pouch.
You see, the comfort pouch revolutionizes (yes, it’s a goddam revolution, people) the way the underwear supports and holds the sack. Two mesh strips on either side of the unit envelop and hug during wear. It might not look like much, but once on … life begins anew.
Saxx makes nearly a dozen different models. On the athletic side, there’s a soon-to-be-released Modal-wool blend that rocks a windproof front panel. Warm and happy boys. There’s also a tight-whitey version … throwback to the ’70s boys.
The regional rep hooked me up with a pair of “Vibes,” ($31.95) from the Everyday collection. Viscose-Spandex and they’re hot-damn comfortable, let me tell you. I haven’t worked out in them, but they’d probably keep me psyched in the gym, too. I did see a version on the site with a “relaxed silhouette,” recommended for southern Italians like me, but I think I’ll keep the Vibe going. My people worked hard for our silhouette, thank you very much.
