The best boxer shorts: from underwear to underwear!

A lot has been written about women's lingerie, as soon as it becomes clear after a short online search. Which makes sense, because who can stop talking about all the beauty that lingerie designers have come up with for women? Still, it's a pity that all this justified attention makes underwear for men get a bit snowed under. There's still so much to gain when it comes to good, beautiful and tasty men's underwear that it's time to counteract it a bit, we think at Dutch Designers Outlet. There are lots of designs for men that are not only great to wear, but also a nice thing to see, that it's just a shame to just buy something while doing your weekly shopping. Time for a bit of class, ladies and gentlemen: in this article every man and every woman learns how to make the step from underwear to underwear with a little professional knowledge!

They're so comfortable!

Men's boxer shorts have been incredibly popular among all kinds of men for years: from big to small, from fat to thin and from young to old. Research shows that 67% of all men nowadays choose a boxer, while only 24% prefer the classic men's briefs. The most important thing for a man, practical as he is, or thinks he is, is simply that his boxer is comfortable. Unfortunately this doesn't necessarily make it any easier, because what's comfortable is different for every man. Dutch Designers Outlet therefore helps men and their wives with some useful information about the right boxer for every kind of man. If you keep the following tips in mind, you'll know you're on your way to your, or his, new favorite underwear!

Boxer tip 1: Your best size

Let's start at the beginning: what size is right? At Dutch Designers Outlet, you don't need to have difficult calculation tables at hand, because we always keep the same sizes. This makes it easy to compare our boxers with the sizes of your jeans, or those of your guy, so you can immediately see what you need to score. It's very simple, as long as you keep the following sizes:

Small: 4 - 28 - 48; Medium: 5 - 30 - 50; Large: 6 - 32 - 52; XLarge: 7 - 34 - 54; XXLarge: 8 - 36 - 56.

Choose the size with the appropriate wearing comfort and our entire range lies at your feet: tailor-made shopping has never been easier!

Boxer tip 2: Fabric change

Every man has a favorite fabric for his boxers, whether he knows it or not. The right type of fabric unconsciously determines whether your new addition will be a boxer that you'll find more often in the laundry basket, or more often in the back of the wardrobe drawer. That's why it can help to change the fabric if you're dissatisfied or your current boxers. The two most important materials to choose between in such a metabolism are microfibre and cotton. Both have their beautiful properties, so the final preference depends on what a man thinks is most important. Again: this doesn't have to be a conscious choice. It might be smart to investigate what your current favorites are made of, so you know what to look for!

As a rule, most men opt for cotton underwear. This purely natural material stays cool to the touch when worn, which can be an important plus. The big disadvantage of cotton is that it is not naturally stretchy, while a little stretch often improves the fit. Many designers therefore add an amount of elastane, a synthetic fibre that stretches at the base of natural cotton. In this way, boxers keep their shape and the tight fit is not easily lost. A disadvantage of cotton is that it does not retain its full colour because of the nature of the fabric. After a few washes, the colours fade away; a pity if you like a nice print or motif. In addition, cotton has the ability to retain moisture, which can be annoying during sweating, which is an important factor for athletes in particular. For these reasons, a large group of men prefer boxer shorts made of microfibre, or microfibre. This modern synthetic fibre is made of polyamide or polyester. These shorts feel different than cotton shorts, but they are much more colourfast and retain their intensity after washing. More importantly, microfibre has the ability to efficiently wick away moisture, allowing even the most active men to relax and exercise comfortably without irritation from excess sweat.

Boxertip 3: The eye wants something too!

We mention this boxer tip as the third one, but maybe the most important one to keep an eye on: just like with women, men's underwear can be even more comfortable, but of course it can look a bit tasty, can't it? Look, you've come to the right place at Dutch Designers Outlet! We have a pretty sharp eye for designer lingerie and even though it's a fact that tastes differ, we have a pretty good understanding of tantalizingly beautiful underwear, even for men! A lot of people (so men and women) automatically think in sophisticated lingerie of beautiful sets for women, but then they really are quite behind the times! A nice fit can work wonders for any set of men's buttocks, believe us! Dutch Designers Outlet has everything to prove us right. Boxer shorts of the level we're going for are designed by the best designers for a reason, and even if you or your husband thinks comfort is the most important thing, that doesn't have to stand in the way of a sensual and seductive look. With underwear, the right shapes and lines can highlight any silhouette and any posture at its best; especially when it comes to a man's body, where the emphasis can be placed more clearly because men have fewer curves and graceful lines in their figure than women.

To conclude, we would like to give away a recommendation in terms of colours and designs. Who thinks that sexy and elegant are only possible with subtle colors and sleek design, is quite wrong. A recent study shows that even the opposite may be true for men. Of the 200 men between the ages of 16 and 65 interviewed, the part that wore colourful underwear with bright prints and striking shades turned out to have 30% more sex than the men who wore classic white underwear. That makes you think, doesn't it?

Everything has to be right

In the end, the most important thing of course is that you choose for your guy or for yourself exactly the boxer that gives you the best feeling. The best feeling in the broadest sense of the word of course: material, size, fit, colours and prints, everything has to be right. Once you've found that perfect boxer, it doesn't matter whether you give it to yourself or to your loved one. The self-confident feeling that the ideal boxer shorts give to a man remains the most seductive of all, and you only bring that out with the very best designer underwear! Have fun choosing, but especially wearing your own perfect underwear!
