Want the best of both worlds in mens underwear? Boxer briefs have almost as much support as briefs with the comfort of boxers. Men's boxer briefs, because they are somewhat form-fitting, may often be the best choice under your wardrobe. They're also flattering on almost any body type.

HisRoom carries boxer briefs from many of the top brands, including Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger, Hugo Boss and Zimmerli. If you haven't tried boxer briefs yet, you may be surprised at the level of comfort while still going high-style.

Find your boxer brief style

From pure cotton to silk, men's boxer briefs come in fabrics and styles to suit any taste. Calvin Klein's men's underwear comes in styles from button fly boxer briefs to pouch front, and HisRoom carries the hot new Steel Collection.

For something entirely different, you might look at Mansilk Silk Knit Boxer Briefs. These 100% silk boxer briefs come in wild colors, including orange, eggplant, red, and lime green. The Frank Dandy cotton boxer briefs go a step further, with wild prints and contour pouch.

The Origin of Men's Boxer Briefs

- The original boxer briefs were first seen in Calvin Klein ads. Huge billboards showing Mark Wahlberg (fresh off the movie "Boogie Nights") wearing a pair of boxer briefs with his legs wide open were everywhere in New York and in every magazine. Being the first new mens underwear silhouette to come along in a century, men immediately rushed out to purchase a boxer brief because they wanted to try something new.

Boxer briefs combine the long leg of the boxer with the support of the brief. So, a guy gets support, but with more coverage. Initial reviews were mixed. For men with large thighs, boxer briefs were too binding and would need to be pulled down after standing up. Changes in the design were made, and now boxer briefs have a much less binding band around their legs. However, this silhouette will never be a great choice for husky men.

Today, the boxer brief category encompasses everything from trunks to longer-leg biker short style shorts. The brands who have really embraced the boxer brief style include 2xist, C-IN2, Calvin Klein, Frank Dandy, Hugo Boss, RIPS Grigioperla, Tommy Hilfiger and Zimmerli.

2xist Boxer Briefs

- 2xist took the boxer brief style and added their classic contour pouch detail. They also added taping along the side of the pouch to increase the look of a man's package. Made in cotton, 2xist boxer briefs are a great basic. Their cut is also low for a no-show look under low-rise jeans

C-IN2 Boxer Briefs

- Guys wanting bold colors and a shorter boxer brief leg should look at C-IN2. Famous for their ultra-comfortable waistbands and super soft fabrications, C-in2 also includes a contour pouch on all its boxer briefs styles.

Calvin Klein Boxer Briefs

- These are the original boxer briefs. And as such, they are the undisputed leader for having the best and largest selection of mens boxer briefs. Calvin Klein's signature is sold with a contrasting color waistband. Calvin Klein boxer briefs come in cotton knit, stretch microfiber, micro modal and pima cotton. CK boxer briefs are now available in prints as well.

Hugo Boss Boxer Briefs

- The Hugo Boss brand is crafted in Germany. Hence, it has great design. The Hugo Boss boxer brief is a more sleek design with shorter legs. The waistband is the same color as the boxer brief with tone-on-tone logo'd waistbands. A very sleek mens boxer brief brand.

Paul Frank Boxer Briefs

- Fashion meets classic in Paul Frank boxer briefs. For the guy who likes a bit of outrageous in his trunks, yet wants comfort as well. Paul Frank boxer briefs are fun and crazy. The names for each of the styles such as Ninjaflauge, Turn it Up, and Man Panties will put a smile on your face.

Tommy Hilfiger Boxer Briefs

- This is the All American Brand. Tommy Hilfiger puts the red, white and blue in mens boxer briefs. Classic cotton knit, with the Hilfiger flag proudly flying on the front waistband, these boxer briefs have a longer inseam and a banded leg hem. And, Hilfiger also puts a button fly or a working fly on many of his boxer briefs.

Trunks

Men's trunks have been around for a long time, but as a bathing suit style. Once the boxer brief appeared on the market, the trunk style quickly followed. The main difference between boxer briefs and trunks is that men's trunks tend to have the same tight fit, but are squarer in design, and with a shorter leg or rise. The trunk has become extremely popular with guys who are athletic with thicker thighs. The trunk style can be worn under relaxed workout pants as well as tighter jean styles. The trunk gives great support but with out the excess fabric around the leg that can bunch and need frequent adjusting

For you guys thinking of changing over to the trunk underwear style, HisRoom has a great assortment from all your favorite brands.

2xist Trunks

- 2xist is famous for its "No-Show" cut. This means the waists of its trunks are cut low enough for low-rise jeans. 2xist trunks can also be called square cut briefs. However, this style is really a trunk, but with an even shorter rise

Calvin Klein Trunks

- Calvin Klein is also a market leader when it comes to mens trunks. Every Calvin Klein collection includes a CK trunk silhouette. As is typical of Calvin Klein, most trunks are basic solid traditional colors with all the front options - working fly, contour pouch or fly front. CK's fabrics include cotton, micro modal, microfiber and cotton knit. Recently Calvin Klein has expanded into prints with lively print trunks in a great range of colors.

Ed Hardy Trunks

- For a lively and fashionable men's trunk, look no further than Ed Hardy. A great square trunk with fun and playful graphics, the Ed Hardy trunks can be a hilarious surprise when discovered by your mate.
