Product Insights
The SAXX 6" Golf And Martini Boxer Brief Droptemp™ combines patented evaporative cooling (permanent, chemical-free) with a 57% cotton, 38% modal, 5% spandex blend that absorbs 50% more moisture than pure cotton, resists shrinkage and pilling, and feels smoother due to finer modal fibers. Its 9-panel slim fit with a 6-inch inseam and standard pouch prevents friction and bunching, while the waistband stays put and interior seams lie flat. Priced at $38 CAD, it undercuts Lululemon entry-level underwear, though it belongs to SAXX's Everyday collection—offering daily comfort and moderate activity support, not the high-intensity pouch innovation of the PRO line. The DropTemp cooling remains effective with proper care, and SAXX backs the first pair with a free replacement guarantee, though sale items are final sale.
- Cooling technology

Why this is supported
The DropTemp cooling technology uses a patented evaporative process to wick and evaporate sweat, with no chemical treatments, making the cooling effect permanent and intrinsic to the fabric. This is supported by independent articles:
DropTemp, SAXX’s priority cooling tech, is specially crafted to “boost your body’s natural cooling capacity by evaporating your sweat, without the use of chemical cooling treatments,” according to the brand.
insidehook.comThe modal component of the fabric further enables this by absorbing up to 50% more moisture than cotton, ensuring efficient sweat transport, and retaining its shape when wet to maintain the cooling pocket's structure. As one source explains,
Modal absorbs water extremely well with a maximum of 50-percent more absorption capacity compared to cotton.
loomandfiber.comAdditionally, users on Reddit have positively recommended the DropTemp cooling mesh for its comfort and cooling, with one stating,
