Guide To Mens Underwear Cuts

Gone are the days when buying mens underwear meant a quick trip to the local M&S for some saggy white Y Fronts. These days fashion conscious males are just a little more demanding and want underwear that’s not only functional – but gosh darned stylish as well.

For those of you who need a little guidance, the team here at Blokes Undies have decided to put together a short guide to the different styles and cuts of mens underwear on the market today. So sit back, relax and let us guide you through the underwear fashion maze!

Boxer Shorts & Boxer Briefs

Traditionalists will recognise this cut all too well. These days however, boxer shorts come in a variety of styles and fabrics. Short cut legs create a trunk style boxer, but the more traditional length extends to a mid-thigh location. Choose from button fly or one of the increasingly popular pouched front boxers which offer great support as well as a more traditional underwear coverage.  Many swimwear styles are also currently being offered in a boxer or trunk boxer style as beach / pool fashion becomes a little more daring, opting for styles that cling to the skin and highlight the male physique.

Trunks

Fans of retro underwear styles have been lapping up this relative newcomer to the mens undies scene. Reminiscent of the mens swimwear styles of the 50’s these highly trendy short cut, tight fitting undies have really captured the imagination of fashion fans. Shorter leg length and low hips combine to create a silhouette that’s unmistakably sexy. A great style for body conscious and buff men to show off their toned physiques to maximum effect. Often seen with dazzling retro prints and colours, we suspect that trunk style underpants are here to stay!

Low Rise Hipsters

These are the fashion solution to the increasingly popular low slung hipster style jeans and trousers. OK, showing half your underpants to the world is a style that some men seem to think is trendy, but here at Blokes Undies we reckon you should only show your undies when you’re asked! Available in boxer and brief style, low cut hipster underpants rest on the hip below the waist (hence the name).
