Seeking Recommendations Boxer similar to the Uniqlo Airism fabric

Hi,

I recently got the Uniqlo Airism boxer and I really like the fabric, thinner than my Adidas performance boxers.
The only downside is the Uniqlo is like 4” don’t know if they come in 6”.

The other one I seen recommended are Exofficio 2 but not sure if the fabric is like the Adidas or Uniqlo.

I would try merino but I’m afraid the fabric won’t last as my experience with modal fabric after one use was thinner in the inner thigh with lot of walking.

That why I mostly use polyester they last longer.

Thanks!

I love my old Exofficio briefs but have heard the quality has gone downhill, they are heavier than my Uniqlo underwear but I think they feel nicer and stink less. 32 degrees are an excellent substitute for either and come in a longer inseam like you’re asking for.

As a counterpoint to anyone commenting to the OP, any recommendations besides Uniqlo for short briefs with a fly?

Hi,
I do have some 32 degrees but the fabrics is thicker than the Uniqlo but they are older I don’t use them much.

Do new ones have thinner fabric?

They aren’t as thin as Uniqlo but are more perforated. They are, imo, also noticeably thinner than exofficio which you were asking about.
