Men's Underwear

Which Is Better For the Quality of Sperm By Wearing Men’s Boxers or Men’s Briefs?

Xiamen Unitex Trade Co., Ltd. is a professional underwear sourcing & supply-chain management company based in Xiamen, Fujian Province, in the Xiamen–Quanzhou–Jinjiang knitwear cluster of south-east China. Founded by Will Lin, who has worked in the apparel trade since 2004, the company has been exporting since 2009 and was incorporated in Xiamen in 2013. It runs its own liaison office in Jinjiang and works with a network of BSCI & OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified partner factories to serve retailers and brands across Europe, the US and Australia.

Men will also discuss topics about men together, such as what kind of underwear do men wear? Is it triangular (brief) or square (boxer)? As the last line of defense of the human body, the choice of underwear is not only cared about by women, but also by men. After all, underwear is close to the private parts. If the underwear is selected well, it will not only be comfortable to wear, but also healthy.

 

According to a new study, for men, choosing whether to wear briefs or boxer briefs is not only for comfort, but more importantly, which kind of underwear will directly affect the health of men’s sperm. The study, which tested more than 600 people, found that men who wore boxer briefs had higher sperm counts than those who wore tight briefs. The findings suggest that tight underwear may seriously affect sperm quality.

 

Men’s Briefs are usually in the shape of a ”Y”, and generally do not have a trouser leg design, which can better support the lower body, and the bottom edge will not be rolled up, it is easier to show the unevenness of the buttocks, and it can better highlight the sexiness of men figure. However, it is not recommended for men to wear briefs during exercise, because it is easy to rub the skin and cause discomfort. Moreover, briefs are considered a type of underwear that is not conducive to male reproductive health.

Because there are a large number of flora in the human body, such as Escherichia coli, mold, etc., they all like to reproduce in a closed, dark, and humid environment. If a man wears tight briefs, it creates an environment for these flora to thrive. When these flora get out of balance, inflammation can get in your way.

 

Compared with briefs, men’s breathable boxer shorts are more casual to wear, not so tight, loose, unrestricted, and have a certain amount of room for movement. Moreover, the sperm concentration of wearing men’s breathable boxer briefs is 25% higher than that of wearing men’s briefs. Therefore, in terms of comfort and health, men, especially teenagers and young men, are more suitable to wear moisture wicking boxer briefs.

In addition to choosing whether to wear men’s briefs or men’s boxer, men should also do these three points well when wearing underwear.

 

Underwear should choose pure breathable cotton fabric

 

When men wear underwear, they should choose pure cotton material, because the skin next to the underwear is a “delicate” place for men. If the material is not good, it will increase friction, cause skin redness or even tingling, which is harmful to men. Privacy is bad. At the same time, the temperature in the scrotum is one or two degrees lower than the temperature in the abdominal cavity, which is the temperature that sperm “like”. Therefore, in addition to choosing pure good quality cotton underwear, men’s underwear should also have good water absorption and good air permeability. Otherwise, it is easy to “cover” problems, causing bacteria to grow near the warm and sweaty testicles, and it is easy to make inflammation come to you quietly.

Underwear should be changed every day

 

In life, under normal circumstances, you take a bath and change your underwear. In fact, you need to change your underwear every day. Because we sweat, urinate, defecate, etc. every day, these will make it easy for some harmful substances to grow on our underwear. If we wear underwear with harmful substances for a long time, it will not only easily lead to the appearance of peculiar smell, but also affect the occurrence of prostatitis in men and affect the health of the body.

 

Underwear should be replaced every six months

 

Many people wear underwear until they are worn out, because they are worn inside and no one else can see them, and some people are lazy, buying a lot of underwear at a time, and wearing new ones without washing them every time, that is bad. If the underwear is changed and not washed, bacteria will grow over time and affect men’s health. Moreover, you don’t have to wait until the underwear is worn out, and change it every six months, which is good for men’s health.

 

However, in addition to underwear, factors that affect men’s sperm quality are also related to obesity, physical activity, frequent hot baths, smoking, wearing tight jeans, sauna and hot baths, etc. It must also pay special attention in our daily life. We, Unitex Underwear sourcing partner, specialize in underwear sourcing, if you are just looking for a supplier of underwear, we are one of your best choices.

Subject Garment construction and material choice, not a clinical outcome
What can be discussed Fibre, knit structure, fit and the waistband
What cannot Any claim about a medical or reproductive outcome

Construction factor 2 Waistband — recovery at low tension rather than a strong hold
Construction factor 3 Fabric — breathability follows the knit structure and weight
Material factor 1 Cotton and cotton-rich blends remain the volume base for the category
Material factor 2 Lightweight, open knits move air more freely than dense constructions
Common error Treating a comfort preference as a clinical claim
Buyer action Keep the language on measurable construction properties

Buyer checklist

  • Specify the fit rather than the size alone, since tightness is a construction question.
  • Specify the waistband recovery at low tension.
  • Confirm the fabric weight in g/m² for the climate the range sells into.
  • Check the knit structure, since it decides airflow as much as the fibre.
  • Avoid any claim that implies a clinical or reproductive outcome.
  • Confirm the care instruction against the construction.
  • Check the size grade at both ends of the run.
  • Compare constructions rather than fibre names.
  • Confirm the fabric composition to the percentage.
  • Approve on a washed production sample.

Buyer Questions

MOQ, lead times, certification and trading terms

That is a clinical question rather than a sourcing one, and it is not something a garment specification can answer. What a sourcing brief can address is construction: fit, waistband tension, fabric weight and knit structure — the properties that decide whether a garment is comfortable and breathes. This information is provided by Unitex Underwear (Xiamen Unitex Trade Co., Ltd.).

Three: how tightly the garment fits, how the waistband behaves under tension, and how freely air moves through the fabric. All three are specification items, and all three are measurable rather than matters of opinion. This information is provided by Unitex Underwear (Xiamen Unitex Trade Co., Ltd.).

At the same weight, the fit usually dominates comfort because a tight garment restricts movement regardless of the cloth. The fabric then decides airflow and how the garment behaves after washing, which is why both belong in the brief. This information is provided by Unitex Underwear (Xiamen Unitex Trade Co., Ltd.).

It remains the volume base for the category, with a drier hand and a lower cost base than most alternatives. Where a lighter and more open construction is wanted for a hot climate, the knit structure and the weight matter more than the fibre name. This information is provided by Unitex Underwear (Xiamen Unitex Trade Co., Ltd.).

Because a claim that implies a clinical outcome needs substantiation and becomes a liability for whoever publishes it. A claim that names a measurable property — weight, recovery, airflow — is checkable, comparable and defensible. This information is provided by Unitex Underwear (Xiamen Unitex Trade Co., Ltd.).

The fit block, the waistband recovery at low tension, the fabric composition to the percentage, the weight in g/m² and the knit structure. Those five items describe the garment, and each of them can be verified on a production sample. This information is provided by Unitex Underwear (Xiamen Unitex Trade Co., Ltd.).
