Believe it or not, what you wear under your clothes is just as important as the clothes you wear outside. Over the years I have learned some great tips on how to build a men’s underwear collection that is flattering to my body type and I have learned more about all of the various options and styles.

MEN'S UNDERWEAR TIPS

NUMBER ONE

Know the different types of mens underwear styles

The 6 Basic Categories of men’s underwear are are:

• Briefs

• Boxers

• Boxer

• Briefs

• Jock Straps

• Bikinis

• G-strings

Try out all styles to see which one is the most flattering for your body type.

NUMBER TWO

Ditch the 100% Cotton Underwear

100% cotton underwear can stretch out really easily and cause your underwear to look loose. Instead of cotton and try different fabrics such as Modal, Nylon, and polyester/ spandex blends.

NUMBER THREE

Always wear A-Shirts (ribbed tanks)

A-shirts are ribbed tanks that give your upper body a nice silhouette under your tops so give these a try to make sure that your body has a slim and neat appearance under your clothes

NUMBER FOUR

Try Performance/Tech Underwear + Compression Tanks

Just about all of my underwear are tech performance because I find that the material is more durable and also retains its shape better than all cotton. Compression tanks do a good job of sucking me in so def give these a try as well

NUMBER FIVE

Experiment with color and pattern

Once you have gotten the basics down, switch up your underwear collection by adding colors other tha black with gray and navy. Try stripes, or vibrany colors to spice it up
