Find the title of this post a awkward or a gimmick all you want, but my "personal hardware" has never felt so "updated". To get straight to the point the answer is yes, these boxers are worth every penny I paid for them. However, justifying a wardrobe full of them is absurd.

A little context...

Last week I purchased a pair of boxers for roughly 11x the price I would pay for the underwear normally; Kirkland Signature briefs.

Kirkland Signiture $3.25 - pair
Saxx Platinum $35 - pair

My reasoning for this upgrade?
I constantly see Gawker Media showcasing lavish undergarments such as Meundies, and for the longest time I stuck to my guns and did not buy in. But this time around Amazon and it's marketing team persuaded me with it's rampant review platform and community.

A guide to Justification

  • The material
    The "Crown Jewels" feel more royal and free to move around in Rayon rather than traditional cotton undies.
    Rayon also seems to hold up better in the wash which should give it a longer life cycle.
  • Design
    The easy access flap makes for a good time
    Graphically pleasing to anyone I personally want to be friends with.
  • Alternative
    David Archy makes a pair very similar to Saxx, with a bleaker style but a much more affordable price tag.

David Archy $6.00 - pair

Final word based on the information I have obtained thus far; "Bear the frugal fruits of life, but remember to take the boys out every once in a while, live a little"

yes..$35 underwear change my life

Seems like a lot for some fancy skid stain canvas. There going to need to hold up for quite a while to cover there cost. What if instead you took that price and simply bought new underwear more frequently. Most underwear feels great at first its how they stand the test of time that matters.

If you are going to shit your pants, I agree. You should probably just buy new underwear more frequently.

I personally really like those underwear they're dope. The pattern is really cool and I really like the color scheme thats been chosen. I particularly only wear black undies but I would definitely wear them. What brand is this and where can I get a pair? *upvoted

I really doubt it. Other than making my wallet 35 bucks lighter.

Completely respectable response. As I get older I find it harder to justify unneeded expenditures. However, if you get the opportunity I highly suggest it.
