my dad was a boxer wearer and I remember wanting to wear them instead of briefs as a kid. my dad did tell my mom to let me wear boxers if I wanted to and he got me my first 3 pack of them. but he did have two pair of briefs..one white one light blue, that were of the big fisherman net material. they matched 2 tank top undershirts of the same open fisherman net that he probably got for the summer. well I wore them once or twwice without him knowing...I think I just wanted to see what they felt like wearing them. I did try on his jock too...just wanted to see how I fit in it and if I filled it up! lol...kind of dumb since they stretch , but there is a fit to them after a while. (btw..his was a little big on me)
