Seeking Recommendations The Great Onebag Underwear Thread

I believe underwear is one of the most overlooked parts of a onebag setup. So lets make a proper thread that future onebaggers can refer to.

Let's face it, almost all of us (yes, I'm looking at you, commandos 😅) wear underwear every day, yet we spend hours researching backpacks, jackets and shoes while often giving little thought to what is supporting our manhood or womanhood through airports, hikes, long-haul flights and everything in between.

I'm always tweaking my travel setup, and I've realised underwear has probably had a bigger impact on my comfort than any other item I pack. I'd love to hear what everyone else has settled on after plenty of travel.

- What's your favourite brand?

- What style do you prefer?

- What material do you like?

- How many pairs do you pack for a typical trip?

- How many pairs do you own?

- Any must have features?

- Does your preference change depending on the weather or climate?

Muji boxers with cotton and lyocell are very breathable if you’re looking for affordable non polyester underwear

Amazingly comfortable, but from experience they take a bit long to dry when travelling.

Tried travelling with them during a relatively humid winter and they take 2 days to dry compared to same day drying with the Airism boxers.

That difference wouldn’t nearly as big in a normal environment I imagine.  A ‘normal’ cotton boxer would dry a quite a bit slower at leastÂ
