Harbor Bay Knit Boxer-brief question.

Hi Everyone,

I hoped to get some info about DXL Harbor Bay knit boxer briefs. I have some older pairs of these boxers and I really like them. The problem is they have since changed the waistband of the briefs.

They are very thin and flimsy elastic, stretch easily, and roll down all the time. The older waistbands were much thicker and more sturdy. They held their shape very well and did not roll down on themselves. The new waistbands are either plain white or white with two blue and red stripes.

Can anyone recommend a brand with heavier-duty waistbands? Thank you all very much for your time and I look forward to your ideas, thoughts, opinions, or suggestions.

Respectfully,

CaddyMan

Welcome to the forum,Caddyman. As you work your way through the many topics and comments in the forum, you will notice that the vast majority are focused on the skimpier styles of underwear eg thongs, g-strings and bikini briefs, rather than boxers and boxer briefs. However, I'm sure there will be some members who will have had experience of wearing the style you are looking for before they switched. I don't have boxer briefs in my collection, but I would suggest quality brands like Kiniki, Daniel Alexander,Cover Male and Gregg Homme would be a good place to start.

CaddyMan, I would also like to extend a welcome to you! As you have a chance to work your way through the posts, who knows, you may decide to add skimpier styles of underwear and/or swimwear to your collection. It can be daunting at first :( , but a confidence-building start with underwear may lead to you strolling a microwear-friendly beach in something which seemed :shock: in the PAST, but is NOW :P !!
