Customer Reviews Outdoor Research Echo Boxer Briefs

These are great. Light breathable super comfortable. Fit is good. The one down side is they start to smell pretty fast, however, they do dry super fast after a quick rinse.

Great fit, doesn't ride up or pull in. Incredibly lightweight material feels like your going commando but still have support. Time will tell on durability, I anticipate the elastic failing first. As of now I am very satisfied and will likely buy more. Only negative is I wish there were more neutral/ simple color choices.

Material is very thin. Was very worried that if I sweated too must it would soak through to my pants, live in Phoenix that has triple digit weather. Very breathable and soft. Wish it was not expense and had thicker material. Looking to buy more in the future

Really like the OR Echo Boxer Briefs. Lightweight but feel like they won't wear out from chafing, active use. Like the colour selection, both muted and bright. Sized up from L to XL to get a bit of a less snug fit. I'd say they fit a little more snuggly that other brands I wear. Will buy again.

Almost perfect, unfortunately the waistband is a bit tight. Keeping these, just wishing for minor improvements to waist.

Bought two pairs of these in my size. Unfortunately, they fit very tight in spots where they shouldn't. I could envision them causing chafing in some rather uncomfortable areas. Disappointed. I returned them.

They might soften up with a little wear/washing, but initially I found the waistband very stiff & scratchy. Seems like it runs a bit small too. But they're lightweight, and the cut is good.

Seem to be as expected. only issue is they definitely fit on the small side.

I bought 2 pairs just because I'm an OR nut, no pun intended. I don't dislike the boxers but I won't be purchasing them again. I'm a 32 waist, mediums are very snug. The fabric isn't the buttery smooth material you'd expect for a premium $ pair of undies. I'll stick to my merino's for the overnighters.

Nice feel etc but it feels like the waistband should be wider or something

Not as breathable as I'd like, but I haven't come across any odor retention issues yet

Runs small and I don't know why OR is using cheap elastic waist bands on their incredible material.

Not quite the fit I was hoping for. No 'ballpark pouch' like other brands and skinny waistband is easily twisted.

I tried the XL. The waist was way to tight, but the legs fit well. I then tried the XXL. The waste fit well, but the legs were much to baggy. I have never had a sizing issue with the many other brands I have worn. Too bad, because they are really lightweight at just 2 ounces.

They are old man boxers for sure. The material is light and breathable, but the fit is so bad, I can't wear them. They are now a rag I use for cleaning.

These otherwise-good boxers are undone by their sizing and their waistband. The body of the boxers is greatbreathable, quick-drying. But the Medium is too small. I'm a 31" waist but even with the medium (32"-34") I could feel the elastic max out as I put them on. See the comparison to a competitor's medium. And the stitching in the waistband has an irritating bulky ridge of thread all around which left a welt. Finally, in the back the waistband is sewn together by a bulky foldover of the fabric which rubs against the spine. Everything else is greatbut the sizing and waistband kill it.

Love the material. I wear a medium (32 waist) in everything but holy cow these are tight. They're also a very short inseam which some guys like but not for me. Finally, why in the world they put that big tag where they did was an awful decision. I even cut the tag and the little white piece that remained still itched like crazy. Would not buy again.

Not too impressed with these, only product from OR I didn't love, super tight waist and legs, not very quick dry, I personally prefer my all wool boxers to these.

So I bought a pair of these in Large and I thought their would be like a tight sport type of underwear. Now I know that trim fit doesn't necessarily mean tight. But the actual issue is that the pair I bought is suppose to be a large but the elastic on it felt like a medium one. The elastic is super tight and I believed to be simply to small for a pair of Large which definitely create some discomfort on the waist line.

I purchased 3 pairs of these a few months ago and they have all began to fall apart. Since OR no longer stands behind their warranty I would not recommend buying them if you plan on having them very long.

So far so good I have worn them a few times and they breath well. Waistband could be a little wider.

Thin waistband, can roll up and become uncomfortable. Also, I miss the 'ballpark' pouch system available on other brands.

I am a 32 waist, and the waistband on the Large (black color) is uncomfortably small! Have to send back...

I was hoping these would would not ride up my legs and provide some support for manhood. They did not. Everything moved around and the leg still rode up. The material was nice though.

Tears up after 2 uses. worst underwear I ever had. also the fit is bad, no elasticity.
