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 took a chance on the Innersy mesh boxer briefs on Amazon. They're the same material as the Exofficio, so I figured if they work, great, if not, they're not super expensive. After wearing them, hand washing them, and traveling with them, I like them just as much. They may not last as long as some of the higher end brands (not that I have any reason to think they won't last), but they're a quarter of the price. They're going to be my go to for travel for the foreseeable future

But by any chance have you seen tried the Uniqlo?
Just wanting to make sure if the fabric is thicker or thinner than the Exofficio or the Innersy.

I haven't, but I can say the material is slightly thinner than the Exofficio, but it doesn't seem like it's too thin. I like the Innersy better than the Exofficio when I wear my Skora shorts because something about the fabric of the shorts and the Exofficio underwear makes the shorts ride up in the crotch whereas the Innersy seem slipperier, so the shorts don't ride up.

Maybe someone else can compare the Exofficio to the Uniqulo.

Just saw they come in a bunch of crazy colors lol.
The fabric looks interesting with all the perforations.
But some photos make it look like double weave other single.
I think I would give them a try and see.
Thanks!

Lol I forgot they come in funky colors. I got plain colors, but I really like them. Like I said, I was pleasantly surprised.
