exofficio give-n-go sport mesh 6inch boxer brief - men's petrol xl

I have happily worn Ex Officio Sport Mesh 6" boxer briefs in size Large for several years. They're comfortable, wick and dry fast (even on long hikes), and they don't stink. But since I have a very low rise (distance from crotch to waist), they never provided much support. On a couple of my older pairs, the waistband was getting a bit baggy and I'd recently dropped a few pounds, which put me on the low end of the range for size Large. So I tried on a pair of Medium sized boxer briefs and was blown away by the increased support. The Medium waist is a bit tighter, but the overall fit, leg circumference and especially the rise is MUCH better for me than size Large. So I strongly recommend Sport Mesh 6" boxer briefs, but if you have a low rise and you're on the low end of a size range, consider sizing down for increased support.
