The underwear thread.

Just letting you know that not many people these days wear a tshirt underneath their dress shirt. ;o Honestly, just get the cheap shirt. ;o

Why would you not wear an undershirt? If you dress up for work every day, you'll be going through work shirts super quick without one. It's cheaper to replace undershirts.

What are you doing in a work shirt that is causing you to need to replace them?

Probably sweating his balls off in Vegas.

I wear undershirts under my dress shirts. It lengthens the life of the dress shirt, you don't have to wash and iron it quite as often, and undershirts are cheap, whereas my dress shirts are custom made and not cheap. Seems like an easy, sensible thing to do.

But I have the same problem. I'm taller than average (186 cm (6'1")), and I'm long in the torso. Hard to find undershirts that are a comfortable length.

I live in Texas and I get three or so wears out of shirts before washing. Learn to go from garage to garage.

I've been wearing Jockey V-Neck undershirts for a few months now, and I haven't had one noticeably shrink in the dryer.

I only wear Nylon (93% / 94% ish ) boxer briefs too. They dry quick, you can barely feel them and they don't ride up. Amazon ( ExOfficio brand ) and Duluth Trading (Buck Naked brand) sell them for around $20, sometimes cheaper (got some ExOfficio's for $9).

That's where I buy my Hanes boxer briefs. My wife likes the way they accent my diesel thighs.

QFT.

Seems like an American oddity nowadays. Stood out like a sore thumb in Europe until I ditched the undershirt. But travelling back to the US, it seems complete opposite.

Oh yea, another boxer brief fan here.

Undershirts are a go in winter, undershirts are a "bitch, you crazy?" in summer.

Polypropylene boxers for me. My balls like to be free and the stuff always feel dry no matter what. None of that gross ball of water hanging off your ass you can get with cotton. Smooth like silk without the "omg I'm sliding everytime i sit" feeling.

I think they make condoms out of that stuff

I buy the cheapest underwear I find at target-level places. Am I missing out?

Yes. The second I bought a few pairs of quality boxer briefs I threw away all my old Hanes/FTLs. The difference in a 10-20 dollar pair and a 3 pack for 5 is immediately apparent and they dont wear out after 3 washes.
Going to check out the no shows kuriin linked, those look like the way to go.

I wear grey v-neck undershirts because I'm still a little overweight and it makes me feel better about my man boobs. The bonus is that you can't see grey through white/lighter colors like you can see white on white.

Dude, your man boobs are the reason I get up in the morning.

I can't imaginenotwearing undershirts. If I didn't sweat or wear deodorant at all, I could see that being an option. But otherwise my shirts end up a fucking mess (yellowing pits from aluminum deodorants and/or smelling bad). I mean, I'd obviously prefer not to wear them, but it's not really an option. Fuck, I live in the desert and so I end up sweating through the undershirts into my other shirt pretty often.

As above, I feel like undershirts in the summer is the one time I actuallyhaveto wear them. Obviously it's hotter, but that's when you actually need the additional layer to protect your shirts.

I'm starting to think Kuriin is more of the "chest hair protruding out of my inappropriately buttoned dress shirt" kind of gay man.
