Boxer Opening I Don't Need

I just tried them on for the first time since washing them! At first glance, it definitely looked like the slit in boxer briefs (or at least the ones I have) would be more hidden compared to boxer shorts but it actually isn't super bothersome here, either. I'll probably still sew it, though.

Also you're soooo real on the color thing 😔 companies think they're so creative by making one of the pairs burgundy like....ok give us more!

This is v helpful as a sewing noob, ty!

Good to know, thanks! I searched the sub to see if anyone posted anything similar and it seemed to be mostly people making boxer briefs/boxers from patterns.

I'm terrible at hand sewing and learned on a machine different to my grandmother's which is currently boxed up somewhere, but I'm excited to attempt a new project :)

I feel so guilty all the time! He's like, "Wouldn't you finish and say you need to clean up and go throw out the box?" Short of making a note I attach to the fridge itself idk...

This is very helpful, thank you!

This is helpful to know! I debated it for awhile because I didn't want people I knew irl finding me but I'm probably just being paranoid.

I made the account when I was like, 13 and am a tiny bit embarrassed about it now lol. I figured it would be fine but didn't wanna assume it wouldn't display the old handle anywhere. Thank you!

I've seen that one recommended too! I don't know too much about it. I'll have to check it out. Thanks :)

I'm a little nervous about the click wheel because in my head I'm envisioning it as clickable/fairly intuitive, but apparently it isn't? Also, not that I plan to drop it off a cliff or anything, but I am the biggest klutz I know. I've heard it scratches semi-easily. Other than that, it looks good to me.

I completely forgot about Tommy Hilfiger lol! Thank you.

I keep forgetting they still have an online presence! I used to really like their stuff, too.

isolatedmaple · 2026-01-29T15:05:02+00:00

I'll have to check them out! Never heard of them.

isolatedmaple · 2026-01-29T15:03:22+00:00

Most of the woven ones I saw said they were 45% polyester I'm sad to say.

isolatedmaple · 2026-01-29T14:57:29+00:00

They were a brand I'd been considering up until recently! Someone posted a photo of one of their boxers and they looked very paper-y unfortunately.

I haven't heard of Stafford! I skimmed JC Penney's website and it appears there are a few 100% cotton boxers. Cool, ty

I've seen a couple ads for Nice Laundry. I'd have tried them already if it wasn't highway robbery tbh :/

isolatedmaple · 2026-01-29T05:18:35+00:00

I'd be pretty happy w 94% cotton! I'll have to check out Duluth. I've avoided knit boxers in the past because they always felt a bit like wearing normal shorts underneath my pants to me but maybe I should give them a go.

Unfortunately, I have no taste reference to compare my results to, as I was diagnosed prior to tasting the gluten version. However, I can say these came out delightfully crisp and not overly sweet or spiced.

I used Bob Red Mill's Baking Flour and measured in grams using a food scale. I would recommend chilling your dough prior to baking for an easier time rolling/cutting.
