First of all, underwear is close-fitting clothing and is very important for body feeling. If you want to wear underwear comfortably, you must at least choose the right fabric. We often say that everything we wear is based on the occasion. And weather is a very important determining factor.

In spring and summer, the temperature is relatively high. Continuing to wear winter cotton underwear is obviously very out of season.

In autumn and winter, it is best to choose styles with more fabrics, such as boyshorts underwear cotton and cotton boxer shorts.

2. Choose the appropriate waist elastic band based on the quality of the elastic band

The elastic band of underwear is a rubber band at the waist of underwear. It is used to adjust the tightness of underwear to ensure that the underwear fits the body tightly and does not slip off easily. And its tightness can also affect the comfort of underwear, so it is also important to choose underwear elastic bands of appropriate material and quality.

Let’s take a look at several commonly used materials for elastic bands and their advantages and disadvantages.

Rubber (natural latex)

Rubber elastic is the most common type. It is usually processed from natural rubber emulsion and has excellent elasticity and recovery force. Therefore, it is also often used to make underwear elastic.

The disadvantages of rubber elastic bands are that they are prone to moisture, deformation, aging, and even mold, and have a short service life. Therefore, it usually needs to be protected from long-term exposure to sunlight and moisture, and needs to be stored in a dry environment to extend its service life.

Polyester

Polyester elastic bands are processed from polyester fiber and are one of the commonly used materials for underwear elastic bands. They have excellent durability and UV resistance. They are wear-resistant, not easily deformed, and have high softness. At the same time, they are relatively cheap and very popular.

The disadvantages of polyester elastic bands are that they melt easily at high temperatures and have poor elasticity, requiring the use of a large amount of processing agents to increase their elasticity. In addition, it has high softness and can easily cause clothes to deform and sag, so you need to choose carefully when using it.

Nylon

Nylon elastic bands are made of nylon fiber. It is a lightweight, wear-resistant, waterproof and strong organic synthetic fiber. It has the characteristics of wear resistance and stretch resistance and is often used to make sports underwear elastic bands.

The disadvantage of nylon elastic bands is that they have poor durability and are easily affected by ultraviolet rays and high temperatures, causing breakage and deterioration. In addition, because its surface is relatively smooth, it slides easily, so nylon elastic needs to be used in conjunction with underwear design to take full advantage of it.

Spandex

Spandex is a kind of elastic fiber with excellent elasticity and recovery force. It is widely used in making underwear, swimsuits, fitness equipment and other occasions.

Spandex elastic bands are characterized by high softness and good elasticity, making them very suitable for use on close-fitting clothing. However, its disadvantage is that it melts easily at high temperatures, is sensitive to ultraviolet rays, and is prone to discoloration or hardening. In addition, spandex elastic bands are more expensive, so you need to purchase and use them carefully.

How to choose the right underwear elastic band?

3. Choose the right fit according to your body shape

In addition to the fabric and elastic band, underwear should be comfortable to wear and should be chosen according to your body shape. There are many types of underwear, including men’s briefs underwear, men’s boxer briefs underwear, home underwear, men’s boxer shorts, men's bikini briefs underwear, etc. However, the most common ones worn in all seasons are men’s briefs and men’s boxer briefs.

For friends who work out regularly, whether it is briefs or boxer briefs, they look good and will not cause any discomfort.

For those who are overweight, boxer briefs are more suitable. When wearing briefs, it is easy to get stuck on the thighs, which is very uncomfortable. Boxer briefs are undoubtedly the best choice. No matter how much flesh you have on your body, as long as you choose the right size, it can accommodate everything.

4. Replace with new ones regularly and don’t wear them for too long.

After all, intimate items like underwear are too intimate with ourselves and deserve our attention. Under normal circumstances, even if the frequency of wearing is not high and the clothes are washed frequently, they should be replaced with new ones and the old ones should be disposed of after up to 6 months. Underwear is not like a coat or jacket. One piece can be worn for ten years. Underwear worn for a long time will retain various germs and harmful substances, and the price of underwear is not too high. Compared with health, the money is nothing.
