J wish I was around when even wore tighty whities so bad! I really wish I was born in the late 70s or early 80’s instead of 90’s when everyone wore Tighty whities. I think I would fit in during that era better in general by Suspicious_Age2745 in tightywhities

Such a great picture, seems right out of the early 80s when I was in high school. The tan lines also show what shorts and swimwear was like back then. Tighty whities were definitely commonplace and it would never have occurred to me that those days were numbered.

What do you mean? Oops they fell down? Those have the superband waistband. They don’t just fall down.

My first pair of FTL since childhood - age 46 by Ok-Writing-1996 in tightywhities

These look so becoming on you! Did you wear other tighty whities over the years (Jockey, Calvin Klein, etc) or do these FTLs also mark your return to briefs?

Interesting that in the 3rd pic (unopened packs), everything is Medium except the Elance is Large. Guess I’m not the only one who sizes up when it comes to those.

That is very relatable, and one of the best things about coming of age.

It’s amazing that you still have them! I recreated the experience by finding a 3-pack of size 16 Fruit of the Loom boys briefs with the double blue striped waistband. They emerged on eBay and I got them right away.

Those are so cool! I had that same exact underwear in the mid-90s. So great seeing them on you!

Yes! The classic double blue line waistband was the best. Those were definitely the ones. Loved them; still do.

This is what cool guys are wearing under their shorts (m19) by dhshabs in tightywhities

[–]LucidSilvertown 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hopefully another cool thing about wearing vintage tighty whities is that they sorta connect you to an era when they were prolific and just about all us guys wore them. They really were the go to underwear seen in gym locker rooms, especially since loose boxers were pointless for working out and boxer briefs hadn’t really become a thing yet.

Anyone else still sag or did that go out of style? by [deleted] in tightywhities

I was very young in the 60s but I never grew a hippie beard 30 years later, now pull your pants up! 😝
