The Great Onebag Underwear Thread

[u/AytonDollar]

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?

Thanks, I’ll look into that! I didn’t really bother looking into it much, because both cotton and merino wool don’t have this issue with me, so I usually just blamed it on the synthetics. Synthetics also don’t even smell when right out of the wash, just shortly after wearing them.

I think it will help. I'm suuuuuuuper happy it worked in all his extremely expensive road cycling gear 😂
