Boxer briefs. Especially with slimmer fitting jeans. I wear boxers with trousers or to sleep in. Briefs are too gay.

Still trying to find some slim woven boxers that don't come down to my knees.

About 50/50 with boxers and boxer briefs, but I've only bought boxer briefs in the past couple of years.

Butt huggers are high school.

Ok, these were suggested in another thread. Any objections? What do you think?

At first I was looking for a pair of boxers that fit well, but since there are so many people saying boxer briefs, I figured I should give an ear to what others had suggested.

CK boxer briefs in pima cotton. Pricey at $20/pair, but you can score them at TJ Maxx for around $7 from time to time.
