Loom is a great brand. They a build for durability witch make them a good value for money. Bio cotton from portugal https://www.loom.fr/en-de
I like Intimissimi Uomo's designs but they don't produce in Europe. Colorful Standard is nice. There's CDLP if on sale.
I dont think underwear is meant to last a lifetime
Well, you need to wash it regularly, you know. /j
I've gotten a pair past 2 decades with no holes or stains...
That is impressive, must look like lace by now
Silk, and have held up well so far. Not regular wear however.
That's what my mom said and so far I've been right
This shit, right here, is the exact underwear I've been wearing since 2014. Without David Archy, I wouldn't have been able to run 3 marathons, or do a lot of stuff.
I started 2014 with briefs. Then the boys got sweaty. That led to cheeseballs. I realized that the boys needed to breathe a bit more.
So I switched to boxers. I did a lot of walking and a lot of stairs, in boots. One day, I was going down the stairs and I took a step and a sharp pain shot up my nuts.
Went to the doctor, he said I needed more support. I told him my issue with briefs and he said to look for a natural fiber.
So I started researching natural fibers, and micro-modal is one of the best. It's wicking, cooling, etc, but still cotton. You won't get no cheese balls with it.
But I was still scared of the compression that happens with briefs.
Eventually, I found David Archy's. They've got a sack for your sack that keeps em separated. Woah. Gotta keep em seperated.
I slapped these bad boys on and have been wearing them ever since:
In terms of buy it for life, it's probably not it. But I have ordered new underwear from David Archy's about once every 4 years. And for underwear, I think that's pretty good. I'm sure if I didn't shove absolutely everything in the washer, it might hold up even better. But I'm lazy.
I feel like the sizing runs a bit larger, but I haven't worn any other brand of underwear since 2014, so I don't know if that's actually true. But you get a tight fit and your partner will be like, "dayum."
Edit: sorry, I didn't see what community this was at first. I don't think this is an EU brand. But I would look for micro modal, and a sack for your sack (which seems to be called pouch underwear). I did a look, there are a few EU brands that sell pouch, I didn't see any that separate the boys from the shaft though, with DA does.
I like the idea but do I have to fiddle the banana into that small hole every time I put on my underwear?
That website has a good sense of humor!
4 year turn over is pretty good
4 years, then you turn them inside out.
Not these bad boys, they're not reversible, because of the sack for your balls.
So I started researching natural fibers, and micro-modal is one of the best. It's wicking, cooling, etc, but still cotton.
Just as a remark: Modal is a cellulose fiber made from natural materials, e.g. bamboo, but not a natural fiber like cotton, wool or linen/flax are.
Trigema (Germany) is pretty good, but fucking expensive. There exists no BIFL underwear.
There exists no BIFL underwear.
That sounds like a challenge.
https://www.schiesser.com/ a German brand, not sure about where they produce.
That brand name is just a sprinkle of dyslexia away to meaning "shitter" or "person who shits"
Schiess
and what ever happened to BIFL kevlar socks?
Does Hanro make their stuff on the EU still?
