Product Insights

Saxx's 6" In the City Boxer Brief is a multi-sport mesh underwear featuring the brand's signature BallPark Pouch Pro that reduces friction and prevents chafing on multi-day hikes, with a one-way wicking liner and open mesh for quick drying, plus odor-resistant treatment for freshness between washes. The 6-inch inseam and stay-put hems ensure no ride-up during squats and runs, and the pouch design has been refined since 2007, backed by B Corp certification for ethical practices. However, buyers report that seams may fail within months and that the pouch fit varies by anatomy, sometimes causing heat or chafing, while the brand is often seen as overpriced compared to competitors like David Archy and 2undr.

Tissu fragile

Folly K.

On dirait que la qualité n’est plus ce qu’elle était. Acheté et après 1 lavage, déchirure dans l’entrejambe - dommage pour la conception.

Source Threads

  • SAXX sports prevents chafing on multi-day hikes

    I got the SAXX sports and as someone who usually suffers from extreme chafing I can attest that they do an excellent job of preventing discomfort and I can now do 6 day hikes without having to lather my gooch in Vaseline. I’ve swapped out most of my old underwear for Saxx.

  • Multi sport mesh praised for stretch

    I like their multi sport mesh. They stretch a lot so that might be good for your situation.
