I bought two pairs of these for backup after running out of underwear at a Florida theme park. They were so comfortable, and so useful, that I bought five more pairs to replace my cotton briefs. Now they are my everyday choice. Just to test them, I rotate through two pairs, one drying while I wear one. They easily dry in my climate in one day. No binding, no odor, no fuss. The future is now.

I have two pair of the Give-N-Go boxer briefs, and that is literally all you need. They definitely deliver on the odor resistant, long wearing claim. I have tested them. Thoroughly! Buy them without reservation. You will not be disappointed.

These are hands down the best underwear I have ever worn. I first purchased my Give-n-Go Boxers in 2008, for a three week trip to Costa Rica. They did not disappoint. Now six years later the elastic is a little saggy. No tears or worn spots in any of the fabric. I just bought six more pairs. Where shall I go next ... ?

Since I am outside in the heat a lot doing sports I have tried a number of different pairs of "dry" underwear and this is by far the best. They fit true to size, wick as good or better than the other 3 I've tried and give you sufficient room where others do not/feel tight. At first I didn't think I would spend this much for underwear but that are twice as good as the Under Armor & other brands I've tried. Worth it, I know have half a dozen pair.

Hands down the best boxers ever! The only way to get more comfortable is to go naked!

Let's face it--they're expensive ($26 per pair); that said, at this point they seem to be worth the price. I'm 55 and I've been searching for just the right boxer style underwear for much of my adult life. I have tried many different brands. None even come close. I just took several pair (sorry ExOfficio,not just one/two) on a ten day trip to Mallorca. These underwear are as advertised--cool, comfortable, sweat wicking, and odor resistant. The most important test, however, will be durability. I've only had these a few weeks. To be worth the price per pair--they will need to last. We shall see....

I am a big guy with big legs- 6'1" 250 lbs. Finding a pair of briefs that do not rub, ride up, or bind has been a challenge. These briefs have been a godsend. The 9" inseam means that my thighs don't rub and the legs don't creep up. The material is stretchy, lightweight and airy. Very comfortable. I hope they last me for a while. $30/pair is steep, but for the comfort I guess I will have to pay. Wore them all day, hiking around a city and was cool. Great design.

This was the only brand of underwear the outfitter carried during a recent hike. Glad it was. These were great for hiking and now I wear them daily. Very comfortable. Ordered 6 more pair.

I have purchased a lot of different types of underwear over many years for many situations. These work well in all situations. These underwear breathe (no sweating); they don't bunch-up in the back, silky smooth and light as a feather. By far the best underwear I have ever purchased. And, they last. Worth the extra few dollars.

They really are great. You feel like you're not wearing anything at all and they breathe so well. I was a little worried at first about the size chart, but they fit just right. I'm definitely ordering more when I can get a deal on them.

I've purchased Ex Officio underwear in the past, and I've been pleased with how quickly they dry and can be reused. But this new fabric is INCREDIBLE. Softer than you could ever imagine. Worth the price!

Living in the humid south makes these sport undies required wearing during the summer months whether you're actively engaged in outdoor fun, yard work or having a mint julep on the porch. I've been stocking up ever since I tried out my first pair. I highly recommend them! Hope more color options are forthcoming...

I was looking for underwear that met a number of conditions:
provided thigh coverage but not too warm
supportive but not smothering
lightweight and died quickly
I've worn the traditional GNG briefs for years. I tried them during some travel to third world areas but found them so comfortable and practical that I stock them for my daily use. When the sport mesh versions came out, I was very interested in seeing if they would best the traditional GNG. After a few weeks of rotation I have to admit that I prefer them to the original GNG. They have better dimensional support that men need. They fit me well and stay in place underneath pants instead of conforming to the pants. I prefer the 9" version but the 6" was fine, too. Both were lightweight and I didn't notice any additional body heat build-up that I was anticipatingthe mesh works well. It's too early to rate the durability of the material but so far, so good. One thing I like about the 9" and 6" legs more than the original GNG is that they don't bunch up at the top of the legs. They stay in-place very well.
These underwear are great for sports like tennis, golf, hiking, etc. but I'd question their value for basketball, soccer or related sports. Fantastic for camping or traveljust like the original GNG.
I also appreciate the oversized waist bands on the new sport mesh versions. I do wish ExO offered a version that was black on black or black on gray for times where I don't want my underwear sporting a brand.
These will be my new underwear of choice for all my travels as well as my daily office grind. As long as the durability matches the original GNG, these are the perfect evolution of the brand.

Once I tried the give n go boxer briefs a few years ago for travel I was instantly hooked. The quickly became my only underwear. The longer inseam is a much needed update to the product, and the sport mesh is very comfortable. I love my Give-N-Go underwear! I will never wear anything else!

I'm writing for my son as he's already on his canoe trip. He was super enthusiastic about these briefs, read all about them in Backpacker magazine and online, and even referred them to his cousin who is going on month-long trip to Botswana. He tried ExOfficio's Amphi shorts with brief uncomfortable as though the brief was a size smaller. He found the Amphi shorts (of the same size M) that are without the brief and the ExOfficio Give-n-Go Sports Mesh underwear a SIGNIFICANTLY more comfortable choice for his trip -- sitting in a canoe, then portaging, and getting back into the canoe again. Quick dry was tested by getting in the shower. 6 pairs of these briefs were all he brought for his trip (but HOLY COW! how expensive). BTW, last year he bought the boxer briefs, too, and wearing them instead of his B* B* boxers several times this year. The sports mesh version is an improvement.

I recently purchased two pairs and have been more than impressed. I sweat a lot both in active environments and office work. These boxers have been the answer that I have needed for comfort and moisture control. I highly recommend them.

I've been wearing almost exclusively ExOfficio boxers in different forms for the last 15 years and these are my new favorites. Fit is perfect. Not tight, not loose, just perfect. Very cool in hot times and I live in the South and there is a noticeable difference while working out and moving in them. This price is a little high for boxers like the others but you can't beat the comfort and durability and comfort. Money well spent.

I have used this undershort style for several years, these shorts are perfect when riding a motorcycle in the summer when traveling out west in the desert are. These under shorts give freedom of movement and do not stick to you,always comfortable. I highly recommend this product.

I just spent 10 days in Peru with the given go boxer briefs. I had taken 3 pairs with me and wore each pair approximately three and a half days. The comfort of these boxer briefs in my opinion is unmatched. They beat Under Armour hands down. it also felt like each pair was as fresh when I took them off as they were when I put them on. That's saying a lot after 10 days of hiking.
