Product Information

Why is this a good idea? For one, your head would be out of harm's way. Second, you finish the movement in a position ready to strike, with an optimal visibility of your opponent. [To get ideas on how to effectively pivot, film study Lomachenko's and Pacquiao's old fights, preferably in slow motion.] This is actually a rule that can occasionally be broken, but in general, you want to slip to the outside of whatever punch is being thrown at you. In that position, you are safe from the hand that hasn’t been thrown yet, whereas if you slip to the inside, you are liable to get caught. Occasionally you can slip inside to mix it up and catch your opponent off guard, but it shouldn’t be your default. When Should You Slip In Boxing?

That means you can wear jeans, chinos, shorts, whatever, and you can do so without fear of chafing – a lot of which can happen during the clammier, grosser, warmer months. Trunks will make your legs look good, too. By cutting off at the widest possible point on the thigh, there's an illusion of a bigger, meatier leg no matter how heavy you squat (or not). Being comfortable is key to keeping you happy. But comfort starts with the first layer you put on in the morning. Our selection of men’s underwear is designed to keep everyone comfortable, regardless of your preferred underwear type, while also adding a little style to your underwear drawer. A comfortable fit The best way to evade the straight shots is to Slip or step to the side. Let's look at the most common situation for two boxers in orthodox stance: As implied by the name, boxer-briefs have the shape of traditional boxer shorts, but cut from more fitted jersey material. Since the rise of slimmer silhouettes in menswear over the past decade or so, this has become to go-to style for most guys. Arguably, it is the most versatile style out there: not as revealing as briefs, but offering all the support with added thigh-skimming powers. Another advantage for guys with slimmer legs is that their tight fit means trunks will not leave a bunch of excess fabric around your thighs, making them appear thinner. Look out for a pair that bisects your thigh at its widest point, as this will emphasise that width and make your legs look more muscular.There are ways to extend the lifespan, though. Dialling down the heat of your washing machine can work, and 40 degree washes are just as good as cleaning clothes (unless there are some stains, and if that's the case, they should be thrown out completely). Know that underwear should be washed with likeminded kit. It might be more convenient to bang in your smalls, towels and denim all at once, but the fabric friction can cause damage to weaker materials – and the lovely organic cotton of your brand new boxer shorts are some of the weakest in the drum. Briefs are also good for shorter guys, as they expose more of your legs, making them appear longer and you, therefore, taller.

Depending on the type of punch being thrown at you, you have to use a different evasive technique. Evading Jabs and Crosses: Slips As this style fits more flush to the skin than boxer-briefs, often with a higher degree of stretch in the fabric, this style is best worn by men who are slimmer of thigh – anyone with larger thighs may find the pant legs ride up when you walk.When it comes to that drawer, boxers will probably be king. Offering super comfort in a variety of guises, you’ll find boxer styles here to suit all.

Put it this way: if you feel good, you'll look good. You can't put a price on that sort of confidence. Last year's rags won't give you that, either – but a pair of some of the best men's underwear most definitely will. Pour aller plus loin dans son engagement pour le Made in France, Le Slip Français a décidé de travailler avec des matières cultivées directement dans le pays et au plus proche de nos convictions.You can thank the leg length. In the underwearld, trunks (like the swimwear) finish just below the crease where thigh meets pelvis. No more fabric riding up, but not quite super tighty whities either. CXP's founder Tom Austin began to formulate a balm. "We've had experiences of working with Premier League players who were getting Primark underwear from the kit man. They suffered mid-game chafing and broken skin – incredible when you consider the innovation involved with team strips and boots," he says. "Sports specific underwear such as CXP is specifically designed to improve sports performance by actively supporting key areas which ordinary underwear doesn’t do." Boxer shorts are the classic sort of underwear worn by classic cinema's husbands – the sort that returned late and thought it sensible to remove their trousers before hat or tie. Yes, loose, baggy and light has been in favour for decades, and with good reason. However, know that there are a few downsides, too (and not just Don Draper's).

Boxer-briefs usually hit the mid- to low-thigh and often have a button fly. This means they can also be a great additional style, alongside briefs, for men with larger thighs – and the added material between your legs means it can help avoid any rubbing or chafing. That said, if that’s your goal, be sure to choose your pair wisely: go for the longer length and make sure they’re not too tight or they will bunch up under your trousers. Although you probably first wore these in your teens as a rebellion against the tighty-whities you'd been forced to wear before, this is another style of underwear that has had a gentlemanly makeover in the past few years. The baggy cut and bunched, elasticated waist might be the most traditional version, but plenty of designers now offer shorter, slimmer-cut options with a stretch band waist, which are a viable option for men with slim thighs. The newest style on this list, trunks are a shorter version of the boxer-brief and have grown in popularity with the rise of super-skinny trouser styles over the past five years or so. When it comes to length, they tend to sit from the mid- to upper-thigh. Some come with a keyhole fly, but usually the style is flat-fronted and sometimes includes an extra pouch of fabric for added support and... "enhancement".

Once you’ve got the basic movement down, here are some of the best tips I’ve received from my coach and fellow fighters on how to improve your slips. Use Your Legs Few pairs will beat silk in that department. In terms of comfort, there's nothing quite like it – and there's nothing comparable price wise. For silk, expect to pay more, and search more as many underwear brands can still offer top level 'mmmmmm' feelings using cheaper (and often eco-friendlier) fabrics. Plus, it's more susceptible to heat damage and general wear and tear, making it one of the few instances in which 'buy pricey, buy once' is a big fat lie.
