      Comments about Gordini Silk Weight Boxer Briefs - Men's - Special Buy:

      i'm 6'1" and 175 lbs. my waist is 33" and i bought a medium per the sizing chart. heads up, these fit tight like cycling shorts -very stretchy and tight. i didn't realize they would be tight like this, but the support feels good. they are not nearly as long as the other review stated -i measure the inseam at exactly 6", so they come about mid-thigh on me. they are definitely a cooler weather underwear, and feel a bit hot for anything above about 50 degrees. great for cooler trail running, hiking and snow sports. for warmer weather, look at briefs or something looser fitting.
      fyi, these are so snug and so much like bike shorts, you could easily wear them as shorts or tights in a pinch. nobody would know they are underwear, and they aren't at all see-through.

        These are very comfortable and breathable. It's like having a fan in your pants. They are a bit long. I'm 6 feet, the medium hits me mid-thigh. But they are form fitting so don't move around. I wish there were more colors and the tags were printed instead of sewn.

          Feel comfortable and fit well. I have a 32 inch waist am 6'4" and the medium feel great.

          Also ordered the Polarmax but these feel better due to having a more comfortable waistband. The Polarmax have a really high waistband and look like granny panties on a man.

          They are not quite as comfortable as the REI brand boxer briefs which feel better due to printed tags and material 90% nylon, 10% spandex.

          Comments about Gordini Silk Weight Boxer Briefs - Men's - Special Buy:

          From the moment I put these on I felt nothing but quality and comfort. After wearing all day in the summer heat of Austin, these bad boys stayed dry and kept all body moisture away from the crotch region. They performed even better when pushed to the limits of a summertime hike. I've worn them while, sleeping, running, hiking and working out and they have never ridden up or bunched up. Gordini's are the most breathable underwear I've ever put on. They wick moisture like a champ and are comfortable in all the right places.

          I am 6'3 and 210 lbs and the medium fits my legs and 34 inch waist perfectly. The fit is snug and supportive without being the least bit constrictive...just how boxer briefs are supposed to fit. They are an inch or so longer in the leg than ExOfficio and UA boxer briefs, but this helps keep the legs in place all day long. Don't waist your money on ExOfficio and UA, when the Gordini Silk Weight Boxer Briefs are less than half the price and outperform in every way all-day-long.

          I did not find the length distracting as some other comments. Initial purchase was only a single pair for me to judge comfort. Hence, my stock includes 3 pairs. Very comfortable and breathable. Material is thin and soft to the skin. Elastic at the thigh is form-fitting but not overly tight. Dries quickly after washing, very convenient. Better quality than Polarmax or Terramar.

          In my opinion, a fly would make this ideal.

          Comments about Gordini Silk Weight Boxer Briefs - Men's - Special Buy:

          these tend to run a bit tall. i fold over the waistband. this can make them seem a bit tight, but that is probably more due to my build.

          these fit oddly around the "package." the seams do not allow space to comfortably hold things, but rather just pulls everything close to the body, and can feel a bit uncomfortable when sitting. if you adjust them a bit, you can get them to hold the package and allow the twins to be comfortable when walking or hiking.
          they just don't form around or support the package well. patagonia are much more comfortable.

            Bought three of these for a trip to China for four weeks where I wouldn't be able to do regular laundry. Held up well and dried quickly. Very comfortable, now I have the for everyday use as well as sports.
            It's not underarmor, but I love it almost as much as my compression shorts for running.

              Comments about Gordini Silk Weight Boxer Briefs - Men's - Special Buy:

              even though there were no reviews these were cheapest I saw so I bought them after reading several negative reviews of other brands. Have to say I thought they were great, provided support in all the right places, were comfortable, legs stay put, and light weight. Used 3 pairs on 3weeks trekking in Nepal, easy to wash and relatively fast drying. Served my needs well. I got the xlarge only because they were out of large, if you normally wear a large buy that as XL was slightly too big.

              I am 6'4" 185, and the large fits me perfectly around the waist, but, these boxers are very long. They almost reach my knees!

              If you don't mind the length, I'd say they are decent, and not a bad value. For me, it feels like I'm wearing a pair of shorts under my pants.
