@jacob98 I like Step One boxers, they have slippery thigh panels! Old Navy athletic jeans have bigger thighs and stretch a bit.

@jlee27 Second this I found step ones a year or two ago and will never change, used to deal with my ass eating my underwear all day

@jlee27 Second Old Navy Athletic Cut Jeans. I bought a second pair after I wore out the first pair I bought!

@jacob98 I have fairly large legs compared to my waist. Ripped 4 pairs of pants last year.

Bonobos "athletic cut" pants are what you need.

 

[actionjaxon]

@hillybilly Agreed! bonobos athletic cut are great!

@jacob98 Go buy some slacks from Lane Bryant. Free ball it

 

[lookingfordavid]

@jacob98 Yeah, I weigh 225 with a 31” waist. Cotton is no longer your friend.

 

[webbotpredicts]

@lookingfordavid It never was tbh

@jacob98 Good fellow & Co (target brand) athletic fit is hands down the best for jeans/chinos/ shorts.
for me. it was old navy athletic but they stretch really easy and the fit gets weird. Still comfy.

Underwear Jockey boxer briefs. Skip over Haynes and new balance.

@matt007 Second this. The athletic fit chinos are perfect for my waist, thighs & butt. Finding your size is the only problem, but if you have multiple Targets in your area there’s a good chance you’ll find a pair or two. Pair of Thieves boxer briefs work great for me.

@jacob98 I'm still on the hunt for the perfect jeans, although you've got a pretty comprehensive list from another poster on this thread already. I'm in the UK, so I don't recognise some of the brands/stores he mentions. I tend to stick to Levis, as I went through a stage of trying to break in some 'proper' raw denim and it was the worst clothing experience of my life.

On underwear though, all I can say is I tried a million different kinds of cotton boxers, all of which rode up my thighs and ended up cutting off circulation by the end of the day. I tried Under Armour's boxerjocks (at varying lengths) and now I literally never wear any other kind of underwear, ever. I have probably 20 pairs of them and I can't tell which ones are oldest vs. the newest ones. They're brilliant.

@jacob98 I have no good advice on cotton underoos. For jeans, Next Level Flex from American Eagle have been kindest on my quads.

 

[lightofredemption]

@jacob98 Lululemon ABC joggers. Sat in a 16 hour flight with them no problem

 

[zetoria]

@lightofredemption Had no idea they made for Men! On their website right now looking for a pair that will fit as that is what I need. How is the sizing? Did you size up or down or just right?

 

[lightofredemption]

@zetoria I am a 32 waist and Medium was a perfect fit. They're tapered at the bottom as well

 

[zetoria]

@lightofredemption Seems we're the same. I'm 32 on my best days I'll order the same and thank you again.
