swamp ass feeling. If you’re looking for something a little more modern, go for a blend with nylon and some spandex. Nylon is moisture-wicking and the fabric won’t pill or stretch out. However, a little spandex in the fabric helps for movement with easy and extra comfort.
Another great option is modal or micromodal fabric. Made from beech tree, this incredibly soft fabric feels like nothing your junk has ever felt before. It’s lightweight, has a silky feel to it, and also is shrink-resistant and moisture-wicking. Most of the best men’s underwear on the market that you’ll hear guys rave about will have modal in its fabrication.
When you’re looking for underwear at the gym, it’s important to look for a stellar pair that incorporates four-way stretch, as well as moisture-wicking and anti-odor technology. If you’re going to level-up your fitness game, you need the kind of athletic underwear that’ll work as hard as you do, so you can focus on your goals and not the sweaty, uncomfortable situation down below.
Check out the best men’s underwear for every man’s needs at the price that’s right for their budget.

18-Hour Jersey Boxer Briefs
Mack Weldon
When developing their underwear, Mack Weldon took the process seriously with over 10,000 hours to perfect the best underwear money can buy. Seriously, this one checks all the boxes you should be looking for when purchasing underwear. The killer combination of modal fabric, Lycra for stretch, and good ol’ trusty cotton make these boxer briefs soft and breathable, while the no-roll waistband and secure grip at the bottom legs keep these bad boys in place. To really hit a home run with this underwear, they incorporated mesh cool zones by the pouch and inner thigh to keep you feeling cool when temperatures heat up. Plus, you can score them in the trunk or brief style, too.
Calvin Klein
We all know Calvin Klein knows how to make a great pair of underwear, but our top pick would be the Steel Micro Low Rise Trunks with a seriously smooth and attractive-looking nylon microfiber. Even after dozens of washes, these trunks keep their shape and color. The contoured pouch and low-rise length are perfect for everyday comfort with great support.
Smartwool
Did you know merino wool naturally wicks away moisture and helps to regulate your body temperature? That makes merino a great fabric choice for the most comfortable men’s underwear. Smartwool goes the extra mile by wrapping merino fibers around a nylon core so this pair keeps its shape with greater durability.
Ron Dorff
Blending French style with American activewear, Ron Dorff is a go-to for sporty underwear that look and feel great, and these boxer briefs are no exception.

The brand released a new boxer brief this year to help men find their “ball-ance” with a supportive mesh pouch that keeps your man junk where you want it to be, which means you’ll have the best underwear for ball support yet. Finally, no more constant shifting or doing that weird, awkward below-the-belt wiggle to get your bits back in place. But even if that wasn’t a concern for you, the ultra-soft fabric feels heavenly against your skin. With anti-odor and moisture-wicking capabilities, Hanes really thought of everything a guy needs in his underwear, and for an incredibly low price to boot.
