| The wicking process is especially important with compression fit boxer briefs because the fabric has such a tight hold against your skin. Any moisture trapped between the fabric and your skin will be uncomfortable, and could result in an unfortunate skin condition, but wicking removes all of these problems by transporting your sweat through the channels that are engineered into the fabric. The moisture is out of contact with your skin, and the fabric doesn't actually absorb it because it has been relocated to the surface of the compression fabric through wicking. Rather than just being a layer of clothing to reduce chafing your boxer briefs now play an active role in your performance. This process was pioneered by Under Armour, but other brands have added mesh panels and other heightened wicking zones to deliver more wicking to trouble areas. Falke has made a compression trunk with multiple vents and channels knit into the fabric for improved breathability. Other compression boxer briefs give you additional lower back support, like Equmen, and these kinds of features combined with wicking make these boxer briefs popular as everyday underwear instead of just athletic equipment. The dryness and cooling features of compression boxer briefs with wicking capabilities have made converts out of many. Find out for yourself at HisRoom! |
