SockShop Dare to Wear Trunks - Mens Bamboo Plain and Striped Patterned Underwear in a 6 Pair Multipack

Product Information

Elastic Nylon Waistband: Durably waistband makes the mens boxer briefs comfortable to wear all day long without pinching or binding. Bamboo based fabric with added stretch for comfort and retention, which is created from natural materials. This fabric's biggest claim to fame is its unbelievable silky softness. So bamboo underwear for men is more comfortable than cotton. Given the fact that we’re in a global pandemic, I can work from anywhere, so teaching under my skylight which simulates a greenhouse in Costa Rica in a mere 18 degrees wasn’t an option. I retreated and taught my classes outside. Easy right? Well it turns out environmental factors I.e. mud, grass stains and god know what else come into play when you’re hanging upside down in the wilderness trying to teach. Lesson learnt. Cow pat narrowly avoided. Bamboo is not only extremely breathable, which in turn makes it cool against the skin, but it is also extremely comfortable to be worn time after time. This is because bamboo underwear is far softer than cotton, with a texture that’s often compared to cashmere or silk. So it’s incredibly comfortable against your skin. I started to grow quite attached to my T-shirt. We’re creatures of habit after all, and as each day rolled by, the time I saved in washing and choosing looks gave me so much more brain space to work with. What had I been doing all these years? Aside from avoiding public humiliation? It all seemed so easy. That was… until our friend the bionic heat wave rolled in. Oh. Lord.

Most of the benefits of bamboo are exactly what you want from your underwear! Bamboo underwear is hypoallergenic and friendly to all types of skin, due to the soft, rounded fibres that don’t scratch or irritate delicate skin. Bamboo has natural antibacterial and antimicrobial properties that help keep the body fresh, preventing things like odour and bacterial infections to take hold during your day. I started my career as a stylist’s assistant as a bright eyed 17-year-old on a shoot for Bliss Magazine. I was in heaven. Consumerism hadn’t entered my Busted obsessed, clothing obsessed, glitter obsessed fashion loving mind. I split my time between adventures outdoors and hustling to become a magazine editor. Collecting clothes for shoots with celebrities, obsessing over colour ways, shapes and styles for different skin tones and shapes had me hooked. Fashion week was better than Disney land, having clothes and lots of them was a mark of success and an industrial sized Carrie Bradshaw inspired closet was the ultimate storage goal. Bamboo’s ability to control temperature and moisture all create an ideal climate for healthy skin, and that’s just about the perfect fabric for men’s and ladies’ underwear, not to mention bamboo vests and tops. Next up, the beach. Just to reiterate, it was 34 degrees. The sea was calling, I needed to wild swim… would this mean parting with the t-shirt for the first time in five days? I actually felt quite sentimental about the process, so I took it in for a dip! The T-shirt deserved it after all its hard work. Ok so now I’m aware I’m talking about said T-shirt as if it’s a human, but yes that’s just one of the many side effects of the Dare To wear challenge. On the first day I pulled on the T-shirt with my Yoga leggings to teach a Zoom class to 45 clients. The breathable fabric against my skin had me at hello. As sods law would have it, it was that particular day that my students requested full demonstrations of my power Yoga class because they just needed ‘to see how I executed the moves.’ 60 minutes into to a dynamic sequence I prayed I’d never invented and I’m taking breaks to run towards my fan between every pose, and ‘DROP TO CHILD’S POSE’ featured slightly more heavily than usual.
