Customer Reviews ExOfficio Give-N-Go® Boxer Brief

Listed as 1.77oz (50.2g) but they weigh 91g and 101g (3.56 oz) on my scale. First of all, that's double the advertised weight, and secondly, a 10g variance between two pairs in the same size purchased at the same time doesn't fill me with quality control confidence. They feel fine on, but the specs are simply wrong, and I am disappointed by that.

I currently have 4 of mine that the elastic have totally blown out.

Was very excited to try the Give-N-Go as it was highly recommended. Material and quality were great but the overall fit of the boxer brief was poor. I have an athletic frame and the extra material in the crotch area made it look like I had a diaper on as opposed to having a nice form fitting boxer brief. At this price point, I believe there are other boxer briefs that I can purchase that give me the proper fit and feel that I am looking for.

I've been wearing exofficio boxer briefs for many years and the elastic waist band in the newer ones are shot after about 1 year of use, other then that they still fit nicely, but my older briefs fit better.

I only give 2 stars because these boxers are great when they're new. However, concurrent with conservative hand-washing, the waist band stretches out and I find myself throwing another pair away today. My cotton Hanes underwear last 3x as long at a fraction of the cost. Any underwear I've ever purchased has lasted longer. I want to like these but will not be repurchasing due to the poor durability of the elastic waistband. At the price point, this is a glaring deficiency.

I bought a pair a few weeks ago, have worn them a few times and they ride up and give me a wedgie every time. Thought maybe it was because I hadn't laundered them yet, but no. They behaved the same no matter the wash. Very disappointed for such a spendy pair of underwear.

I used to love these. The fabric is very comfortable and lasts forever. However recently it seems the material in the elastic waist band is no longer adequate. I machine wash with cold water and line dry them and the elastic band starts to give out after only a few washes. For the price, and considering the quality of the rest of the garment, this is unacceptable.

I am an avid bike rider and most products of this type are form fitting in the thighs. These shorts are loose as a goose and ride up easily. The waist size was correct so am extremely surprised at the rest of the sizing.

I travel for weeks into months every year - for adventure - anywhere from six weeks to four months in all of Mexico, Central America and South America. Maybe that's the problem. Trips are too lengthy. Sorry. Your product doesn't hold up after repeated (once or twice a week) sink, shower, and bucket washes (the occasional stream wash). I know - that sounds like I might be doing something extreme and out of the ordinary with these boxers - not so. Well, the occasional stream wash might qualify as extreme. However, you advertise these boxers as super tough. I'm not overweight - 35 waist, sometimes 36. I don't stretch the boxers at the waistband by just wearing them, but they stretch out like crazy - will not maintain shape. Yes, I purchase a large (I'm 6'1', 185 - 190 lbs.), so they are not too small. Originally, I carried three ex-officio pairs and alternated them. Not so much, anymore. Now, I carry a couple of regular Hanes boxers and a pair of yours. Seriously, I really, really want to love yours. For me, they just do not live up to their billing. Suggestions? Don't purchase them? Travel less? Shorter periods? Fewer washings? Safety pins? I've returned one for this problem (trashed the others) and soon another pair will come your way, or more likely the trash can.

I loved the look, fit, and feel of this underwear. I work outside and sweat all day every day. I was tired of wearing out underwear so I decided to go for it on something pricier that I hoped would last. Unfortunately my search continues. After just two uses the right back leg/rear has begun to fray and fuzz. Maybe these are tough enough for a walk in the woods. However, if what you need is something that can take a real physical beating it's a case of style over substance.

Very comfortable and effective. For the price, however, poor quality. They are already fraying after one wash. I washed them based on tag's instructions.

all the great features I hoped - super lightweight, flat seams, easy wash/dry. Unfortunately the medium didn't fit, way too much excess that bunched up in back, although thighs and waist fit great. Maybe I gotta spend more time on the glutes. I'm trying the small and will update after I get them.

I am a casual wearer and use these for everyday wear and for the gym. Fits great. However, after 2 uses the stiching has come loose and is starting to come apart and pull. Love the product, just needs better stiching.

Loved the look of this product. Ordered two pair for a 17-day expedition in the High Sierra. Both frayed and wore all over without one washing. Disappointing, b/c I have purchased and worn other ExOfficio products for years with much satisfaction. These were expensive, yet fall apart when faced with the reality of a true outdoor trip.

Boxers are comfortable but they ride up, super annoying

After learning about this brand from Men's Health, I have been very disappointed. These are very baggy, making them bunch, and the material is very coarse. The material is breathable and dries quickly, but the coarseness and bagginess make them very uncomfortable to wear.

I have used the briefs and find them excellent. I ordered a few pairs of the boxer briefs in the same size and they are HUGE. Effectively cannot wear them.

The stitching on all of the pairs I ordered starting coming unraveled within weeks. I sent an inquiry into the manufacturer with my order details before the holidays and no response at all. I am not sure if I got a bad batch of gear, but I can not recommend these at all for the price.

changed fabric and fit legs don't hug any longer and the fabric isn't mesh like it was these are more like under armor now but not as good - I purchase 12 pairs a year and returned these and went with another brand

Have a dozen or so pairs, but two of the last three I purchased started to fall apart after the first wash....the seam around one of the leg openings is coming unravelled on both. Very disappointed.

Still not the original I had, but work. Giving one star because they are being phased out.

For years I wore Exofficio boxers and enjoyed them. Recently I switched to Exofficio Boxer Briefs and like them even more.

While I like the ExOfficio underwear (and have ordered several pair), recent purchases have become unstitched around the leg.

After the second wearing, the seam around the leg unravelled.....Ive had pairs for literally years that have held up just fine.

I wish I had read reviews before buying (these are the only underwear I have used for the last 10 years, so why would I?). I agree with what others have written: the material feels cheaper and is more flimsy, they ride up much easier, and the tag on the inside is excessively long and annoying. Ex Officio - please bring back the high quality product you used to make!
