The Ultimate Guide to Choosing the Perfect Men's Underwear

Choosing the right underwear is more important than most men realize. It's not just about what's comfortable or what's on sale. It's about considering the function of the underwear, what you'll be doing in it, and what you'll be wearing over it. After all, gym underwear is not date night underwear, and the underwear you choose can significantly impact how you feel and the confidence you have in the rest of your clothing.

The Importance of Wardrobing

At Wood, we believe in the concept of wardrobing. This means that men should have more than one style, color, and type of underwear in their drawer. Underwear should be selected according to the function it serves. For example, gym underwear needs to offer full support and moisture wicking, while date night underwear is about how good you look in it and how it makes you feel.

Key Factors to Consider When Purchasing Mens Underwear Online

When buying underwear from a mens underwear online store, consider the function you need it to serve. Do you need more support for the gym or active movement? Consider the style of pant or short you'll be wearing over it. Skinny jeans, for instance, need a style with less fabric. Also, consider the color that will best suit the rest of your clothing. For example, don't wear black underwear under white pants. Lastly, consider the temperature of your environment. If it's hot and humid, go with styles that have less fabric.
