BRIEFS: The oldest form of underwear known to men is the brief. It gives full coverage to the butt and has Y-shaped front fly for comfort. Briefs are available in cotton and polyester. Briefs are also available in mid rise and low rise categories. Both the categories are well suited for low rise jeans. Briefs are super comfortable and are recommended underwear for people with sedentary lifestyle.

BOXERS: These are best suited to lounge around the house. Boxers are not doubt the most comfortable underwear options, however they provide very little genital support. Boxers are absolute no- no to be worn under trousers or suits. As suggested, keep them for chilling at home.
