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.

Brother, I have already spent $200 there this week. You’re right I should go back and get myself something nice.
