Boys’ Boxer Shorts — Cotton, Custom Print, Teen — Semi-Combed Cotton

How to choose

With children's underwear the label decides the purchase, not the price: tracking labels and third-party test reports are usually requested before the first order. Packs by size or by school year cut dead stock and simplify school programmes.

Boys’ Boxer Shorts — Cotton, Custom Print, Teen — trunk — catalogue reference UT-B263DD. Cloth, sizing and packing below come from the sample we already run for this article.

We do not manufacture — we manage. Unitex, based in Xiamen, Fujian Province, develops the sample, assigns the order to an audited partner workshop in the Xiamen–Quanzhou–Jinjiang cluster, and carries the specification, the quality plan and the delivery commitment. Keeping trade and production separate is what lets us match the workshop to the garment.

Fabric and construction

Four colours of shark, coral and chartreuse against powder blue and navy, swim across an off-white ground here, and the palette is what makes the print work: warm and cool alternating so the repeat never collapses into one flat mass at three metres. The waistband stays solid teal blue with no lettering, letting the artwork carry the whole story. Fabric is a 175-180 gsm semi-combed cotton-elastane jersey, visibly denser than the lighter boys’ qualities, with flat-lock seams running down the front and around each leg opening. The silhouette is a trunk rather than a long boxer, shorter in the leg and closer through the hip, which is the shape older boys accept without complaint. Good for holiday and swim-adjacent summer ranges.

Can the shark print be recoloured to our own seasonal palette? Yes, and recolouring is the normal first step on a print like this rather than a special order. The repeat and the shark shapes stay, the colourways change to your Pantone references, and we send a strike-off on the 175-180 gsm semi-combed jersey for approval. A recolour needs new screens, so treat each colourway as its own minimum of 3,000 pcs per colour. The four-colour balance in the photograph is deliberate: warm coral and chartreuse hold the print together against the cooler blues, so cutting it to two colours will read much quieter.

This is called a trunk, but the same print appears on boxer shorts. What actually differs? Leg length and hip. The trunk stops higher on the thigh and is cut closer through the seat, while the boxer short in the same print runs longer in the leg and sits looser, which is the version most schoolwear buyers take because it does not ride up under uniform trousers. Both are graded on the same 86/92-146/152 range and both use flat-lock seaming. If you are ranging both, order them as one colour story so the print lots are matched; printing the two styles in separate runs is where slight shade differences appear.

Customisation: the brand in every detail

The piece can be taken to the last branding detail: logo woven into the waistband in jacquard, printed band, woven label, printed label, transfer and hangtag. All with your artwork, not ours, and in the same order where the programme requires it.

Each of those elements carries its own lead time and its own minimum, so they are planned alongside the fabric rather than after it — the woven band usually has to move before the printed label. The composition and care data on the label are set to the rules of the destination market.
