Cheap vs Expensive Boxer Shorts

What's the difference between these I'm confused?

Is one just a two pack I presume but they're both the exact same boxers?

Diesel are the best clothes as the lad in our local market has always said “diesel fit you”

Same thing, just a double pack. A good price at the moment too!

It's Oddballs all the way for me. Last well, comfy, quirky and all for a good cause

Completely agree. Great fit, colour lasts, good cause.

Amazon are selling the 2pack UA boxers for £12.50

Bargain!

UA convert here, I have the grey and red version. Love em.

Just plain colour Debenhams/M&S Boxers, loose fitting cannot stand tight clothing at all. Maybe a fiver for 3? Deffo not spending £25 plus on 3 pairs that's nuts.

diesel & CK boxers i wear and M&S for work.. have some hugo boss aswell but they are tight compared and hurt my nuts and sausage after a while!

diesel jeans are some of the best aswell tbh 32 waist but i have chunky thighs and they just fit me perfect

My 7 year old bought me some of these for my birthday. They were too small though and I only wore them once to make her happy so can't vouch for how effective they are.

Whatever you do don't buy anything from Boohoo man. Worst quality clothing I have ever bought, especially the boxers and socks.

Cheers

I had placed an order for the single pair ones, but now cancelled and ordered a few of the double packs

I ordered some more for myself when I realised how cheap they are at the moment

Yeah, I bought a 2pk not long after I started this thread. Then when I realized how awesome they were ordered a second pack.
Now they are down to £12.50 I've ordered 4 x 2pks. That'll see me a good while. Great timing as well as my old ones have seen better days.

Sorry to bump an old thread but four years on are there any newcomers to the market? I was a long time Waxx wearer but they’ve changed the fit and material. I’ve tried UA but although they are okay I’m sure I could get better

Buy cotton. Anything else will make you sweat and/or retain sweat and therefore be worse for comfort/smell/bacteria.

Anything from a decent make and cotton. Boxers should last you a decent amount of use unless you are having issues with your sphincter muscles. The cheaper Calvin Klein stuff is crap these days it used to be good. I've had to start buying other brands. Last decent ones I got were Money.

3 for £25 so roughly £8 each. Much better than £20+ for a single decent CK. The cheaper CK just lose their shape after a few uses.

Oddballs doesn't sound like a bad idea, get a new pair every month, 12 a year for £120 with 12 pairs of socks. Whats not to like?

All I wear now are step ones.

I was sceptical at first, especially given the price, but I got one pair to try them and really noticed the difference going back to my usual boxer briefs (M&S cotton). So I bought a 7-pack.

They're a bargain compared to MeUndies who use a similar design and material if not the same, shame the patterns aren't as nice but i'll give them a go.

Very similar design to Bjorn Borg too.

I've been using the Tesco F&F "jockeys" for about 4-5 years, pretty comfy but they never last more than a few years due to rips/tears at the seams so I might try some of those UA ones now instead as I've a few UA bits for training in and I quite like them, shame the UA store is all out of my size though.

Literally just binned a few Original Penguin boxers I bought a few months ago from M&M, horrible shape and went up my crack when playing football.

Paul Smith and Emporio Armani have lasted ages and perfect fit. Replaced the above with some DKNY from M&M which are far superior.
