I have now been wearing tappered boxers, and like the fit and results. Thanks for the help. I still think that the very long sports shorts look silly. It reminds me of someone wearing their older brothers hand me downs. Rediculous!

Being one of the older guys here, I remember when pro basketball teams wore shorter bball shorts that maybe had a 4" inseam and were more fitted. They looked great, and I'm sure that they were much more comfortable to wear while playing. As fashion trends tend to be cyclical, hopefully we'll see uniforms go back to a more practical length.

There are many options for gym shorts that are mid thigh length and fitted. I've been buying them for years, and they look great. Vote with the dollar bill. Don't buy the shorts that are rediculously long and manufacturers will get the message.

Why some of us can't wear trim cut boxers:

I always thought that the shorter boxers bunched up more. For me, the ones with longer legs seemed to be more likely to stay in place.

The really long underwear thing we have today I believe is for the guys who are too fucking nervous to even get near a jock strap. They both perform the same function, except the jock strap looks better AND performs it better. Literally, the only reason for I think is because guys are too terrified of their own bodies to wear anything smaller. I go commando usually, but when I do wear underwear it's the shorter boxer-brief kind. I CAN'T WAIT to buy me a jock strap!!

Since this thread was started about the length and fit of boxer shorts..I think either short or long are fine but for comfort i choose the longer ones..I would think that someone else mentioned that the shorter ones would ride up, and i agree.I think poster #9 with the link that to the briefs sold at Macy;s were nice. I think the variety of styles are wide and endless. I like the way they all look on different body types.
