I think Hanes, FTL, etc are all very well and good in their field, and that field is the "classic" underwear that guys my age (48) know well. It's what all the guys wore growing up: classic white briefs. However, they are lame compared to the new styles of underwear that actually support (and even push out, as others have noted) your balls. 2xist, for example, has the ideal pouch, at least for me. I sometimes wear Hanes just for nostalgiac reasons, but they just don't hold a candle to REAL pouch briefs: 2xist, Cin2, Evolve (2xist's brand at Target).
