7 Best Jockey Underwear

This brief-style underwear is nice and slim, so you can work out, run, or train without worrying about boxers or boxer briefs bunching up or getting soggy. The slim profile gives you total freedom of movement no matter what type of exercise you’re doing, and you’ll love how soft and smooth they feel on your nether regions.

Some users have found that the underwear are small in the seat (butt area) and thus tend to slip down your back as you train, forcing you to pull them up. For this reason, men with a bit more “junk in the trunk” may want to order a size up.

There isn’t a lot of coverage, but the low rise design ensures that your underwear stay below the waistband of your shorts or active pants as you work out. Definitely a great choice for active men!

These underwear are made with 92% nylon and 8% spandex, a mix that combines breathability, quick-drying fabric, and elasticity to make one heck of a cool pair of workout underwear. The nylon microfiber fabric is soft to the touch and super comfortable on your “gentlemen”, and there is no risk of chafing or heat rash thanks to the built-in ventilation mesh panels.

At $18 per pair (or 2 for $24 on Jockey’s website), these are definitely some of the pricier sports underwear you’ll own, but still some of the best if you prefer a slim profile and lightweight fabric.

These performance boxer briefs are perfect for so many sports. You can actually wear them on their own, or use them beneath a pair of loose gym pants or shorts. The underwear clings to your body and moves with you, making them very comfortable for exercise.

Some users complain that they are a bit short and rub against the back of your legs, but for most men, they’re soft to the touch and sit perfectly midway down the back of your leg. Men of average height will find the mid-rise, full coverage short-length underwear are an excellent choice for any workout. They’re super comfortable, won’t bunch up, and will feel nice and smooth on your skin.

These underwear are made of 80% polyester and 20% spandex, making them wonderfully lightweight and elastic. The built-in mesh ventilation panels are 82% polyester and 18% spandex, and the combination of materials makes it excellent at both moisture-wicking and quick-drying. There’s even an antimicrobial, odor-resistant lining on the fabric so your shorts will always smell good while keeping you cool.

The underwear won’t lose their color or fade in the wash, and you’ll find they’re a highly durable choice that can keep up with any sport or athletic activity.

$24 for a 2-pack of these sports underwear may be a bit more than you’d pay for the average pair, but this is anything but average. Get ready for awesome comfort, good coverage, and excellent moisture-wicking properties from these bad boys!

These aren’t your classic tightie-whities, but they’re the updated, modern version of briefs that actually look good! They offer moderate coverage on both your front and back, with a mid-rise design that keeps you from showing plumber’s crack as you bend, squat, and sit. Though they’re not designed specifically for active use, their sleek design makes them suitable for pretty much any workout.

The underwear’s primary drawback would be the sizing. Users have complained that they’re either too small or large in the seat, with the tendency to pull down or ride up depending on size. For guys packing a bit extra in the posterior region, it may be a good idea to buy a size larger—but be prepared to return it for a different size in case the fit is off.

These underwear are made from 100% cotton, which makes them super soft and comfortable on your skin. The cotton is breathable and lightweight, so you won’t have to worry about overheating during your busy days. The flex stretch waistband will ensure the underwear stay securely in place as you move around.

The StayDry technology helps to eliminate excess moisture and keep the underwear cool and dry, while the StayNew technology ensures the colors don’t bleed or fade in the wash—making your underwear look new even after months of use.

At $30 for a 4-pack, these are a well-priced option that delivers quality and comfort at a cost you can definitely appreciate!

These boxer brief-style underwear are designed for both active use and all-day comfort. They’re just the right length in the leg that they won’t ride up or bunch up when you train, but they’ll keep everything cool and comfortable if you’re sitting in meetings all day. The full coverage and mid-rise design means you can wear them on their own or beneath shorts, and they’ll keep everything squared away no matter how much you jump or move around.

Some users complain that they’re lacking support, or that they have to be pulled up extra high to feel the support you need. They also come with a keyhole fly, which is uncommon (but not necessarily bad) for gym underwear. However, in terms of fit, you’ll find few pairs of underwear that cling to your body as comfortably as these!

The mix of 80% polyester and 20% spandex means these are lightweight, breathable, and have just enough elasticity to conform to your body as you move around. They’ve also got built-in mesh panels that allow air in to keep everything cool. Add in moisture-wicking and quick-drying properties, and you’ve got one heck of a pair of underwear for exercise.

The fabric is also odor-resistant and made with a special StayNew technology that keeps the colors from fading or bleeding in the wash. Despite the fact that they’re lightweight underwear, you’ll find they’re beautifully durable.

These active boxer briefs are for guys who’d rather go commando. They’re so light some users insisted they forgot they were wearing underwear, and the material is super soft on your skin.

The no-fly design means you can wear them on their own without fearing the “gentlemen” poking through at the wrong time, though some guys find the lack of fly irritating when it comes time to use the bathroom.

The underwear are a blend of 90% polyester and 10% spandex. The polyester adds the quick-drying, moisture-wicking, and anti-microbial elements, while the spandex gives the underwear just the right amount of stretch to keep up with your active workouts. Whether you’re a CrossFitter, HITTer, or gym nut, these underwear are a great choice.

The material is soft to the touch and smooth on your skin, with a special StayNew technology to ensure they don’t sag, stretch, fade, or bleed.
