Saxx Hyperdrive

Saxx is probably the granddaddy of pouch underwear. Besides some lively prints and tastefully hued solids in comfort-oriented fiber blends, the brand has just introduced a sport short that not only includes a “3D hammock-shaped pouch” but also mesh panels and “Flat Out Seams” to prevent friction and ensure chafe-free support. They offer a compression fit that is perfect for both training and competition.

These boxer briefs are billed as the perfect first layer and made with U.S.-grown Supima cotton that's both softer and twice as strong as normal cotton.
