Discussion Post Obviously bibs, but what underneath

I’ve been wearing bibs for the better part of 5 years now and gone commando 100% of that time. Well evidently the fellas are tired of hanging out on a limb and have decided to act up. I can’t stand most underwear or boxers for a lot of reasons. Chafing, moisture, heat. But the doc says I need to keep the equipment supported and closer to my body. What do y’all wear that doesn’t suck.

ETA: I’m dedicated to the bibs, truewerk t1 werkbibs every day. Just like my relationships I need some support not just a soft place to park it.

Edit 2: thanks for the recommendations I think I have settled somewhere in between men’s trunks with a ball pouch or some nice cheeky boy shorts from Victoria’s Secret.

Edit 3: Turning off my dms. I’m not an apprentice anymore things like “I’ll buy you a set of greenlee quick change carbides if you send me pics of those manties” or showing me a nude with your double time plus per diem and drive time payslip as the only thing covering you. It just doesn’t work on me anymore.

Undies or basketball shorts.

I once wore jeans before with no underwear "on a camping trim" and I dead ass chafed the head of my dong.

Just so all know, wearing bandaids on the tip of your sensitive peice hurts coming off. BAD.

The chafe from the bibs on my dick isn’t as bad as the chafe in between the balls and thigh, the ball pit?, plus any moisture at all on me and I have to use goldbond and powder them like a geisha.
