Boxer Briefs Vs Trunks: What’s The Difference?

The Boxers or Briefs debate was put to rest ages ago with the invention of the Boxer Brief, but what about trunks? When choosing how to dress your junks, it’s important to distinguish undies so you can have more funsies.

Boxer Briefs Vs Trunks

Before we can declare what’s best for your derriere, we need to understand the material we’re covering. While both our Boxer Briefs and Trunks are made of MicroModal fabric, that’s not what we mean.

What Are Trunks?

Think of Trunks as Boxer Briefs’ hot little sibling. Little, because our Trunks are 3” shorter than our Boxer Briefs with a 3” inseam, and hot because they show off all that good thigh meat. The best part is, the shorter inseam means they won’t bunch up no matter what pants you wear with them.

What Are Boxer Briefs?

We love Boxer Briefs, and went so far as to call the kings of the underwear world. They’re a bit longer than our Trunks, with a 6” inseam, but are just as snug and comfortable. They offer support, and were the first product we EVER birthed into an otherwise MeUndiesless world. Those were dark times.

Difference Between Boxer Briefs and Trunks: Considerations When Choosing

Before you commit to an underwear type, it’s important to know the details. Trying out both styles will lead to new discoveries about what your butt likes, but first  let’s cover some basics. 

Length And Fit

As we stated, our Trunks have a 3” inseam and our Boxer Briefs have a 6” inseam. That means the Boxer Briefs come further down your leg (3” further, to be exact). Both hug your bits just right to keep everything in place and have elastic waistbands to keep you comfy all day long.

Body Type

While our Men’s Trunks and Men’s Boxer Briefs were made to fit all body types, some bodies require different kinds of Undies. Some guys with thick thighs might appreciate the shorter inseam of our Trunks, since there’s less likelihood of them constricting or causing chaffing, and some guys with more slender legs might enjoy the coverage of our Boxer Briefs. Our underwear ranges from Small to 4XL, so at the end of the day, we got everybody covered.

Underwear Cut

Our Boxer Briefs and Trunks are cut the same to ensure a snazzy, yet full coverage, fit. You won’t let it all hang out with these bad boys. They’ve got you covered. 

Occasion and Activity

Because Boxer Briefs and Trunks are both fitted, they’re great for active lifestyles. The higher cut of the Trunks make them better for working out to prevent uncomfortable rubbing, whereas Boxer Briefs are a more appropriate fit for lounging around the house. Both fit any occasion with the right print, which is why all MeUndies underwear come in a variety of colorful patterns to show off your individuality.

Which Is Better Boxer Briefs Or Trunks?

Here’s the trickiest question of them all. The truth is, while we have black and white underwear, we don’t have black and white answers. The type of underwear you like best depends on you, your booty, and whatever else you got going on down there. We’re just happy to see you wearing underwear at all.

Try our softer-than-soft Boxer Briefs and Trunks and decide for yourself which is right for you. Whether your trunk feels safe in Trunks, or your booty looks better in Boxer Briefs, it’s all good in our book.
