In the Netherlands, there's an abundance of choice when it comes to types of men's underwear. From the timeless boxer short and boxer brief to the trendy trunk and even the lesser-known, yet no less important, men's brief and thong. Each type of underwear has its own characteristics and style - and it's important to choose the right type that suits your needs and preferences.

The difference between boxer shorts, boxer briefs, and trunks

In the Netherlands, we generally refer to all types of men's underwear with legs as boxer shorts. However, there is a clear distinction between boxer shorts, boxer briefs, and trunks. Boxer shorts are a type of men's underwear that fit more loosely around the body and have longer legs compared to trunks or boxer briefs. Classic boxer shorts are beloved for their roomy fit and comfort. They offer ample freedom of movement and are ideal for men looking for a relaxed feel.

Tight boxer shorts or boxer briefs, on the other hand, offer a more snug fit. They are very popular due to the combination of comfort and support. Boxer briefs fit tightly to the body, have medium-length legs, and sit higher on the hips. They are perfect for men who prefer a tighter fit. Trunks are also tight boxer shorts, but with short legs and sit slightly lower on the hips than other boxer models.

Which type of underwear suits me best?

Which type of underwear suits you best is, of course, a personal choice. It simply depends on what you find appealing and how much support your underwear should provide. The tighter the boxer shorts, the more support the underwear offers. What constitutes the best men's underwear therefore varies per person, but generally, it must meet several requirements. It should be durable, look good, be comfortable, and be made of a pleasant fabric. After that, it's up to you to determine which fit best suits your figure. Boxer shorts with long legs - or short ones. Tight or loose. Or perhaps men's briefs or a men's thong. There's only one way to find out: try them on and discover your favorite boxer shorts!
