Men's underwear
No one sees it, but it shapes how you feel all day. Good men's underwear is the quiet foundation of your wardrobe: out of sight, but always there. At JACK & JONES, you'll find men's underwear in all the key fits and materials – from classic cotton to modal. Here's a guide to the main cuts, what matters when choosing fabric & why multipacks make sense.
Comfortable, breathable, durable: what makes good underwear
Men's underwear has one simple job: it should feel comfortable without getting in the way. That sounds easy, but the details matter. The waistband shouldn't dig in, the fabric needs to breathe & the fit should stay in place when you move.
Comfort comes from the combination of fabric, construction & fit. Once you find the right underwear, you stop thinking about it during the day – which is exactly the point.
Fits: briefs, boxers, trunks & other men's underwear
The right cut comes down to personal preference. Here are the three main men's underwear fits:
- Briefs – close-fitting with minimal fabric. A classic choice if you prefer a streamlined fit.
- Boxer shorts – longer, almost like a pair of shorts, with a looser fit around the hips & thighs.
- Trunks – the middle ground: shorter than boxers, but with a short leg for extra support.
In the end, go with what feels right. Try different styles until you find your favourite. Shorter cuts can feel better in warm weather, while trunks or boxers are often a good choice under fitted trousers all day.
Men's underwear at JACK & JONES
At JACK & JONES, you'll find men's underwear in plenty of options: classic boxer shorts, trunks & briefs. Materials range from pure cotton and organic cotton to softer modal blends. Colours cover the essentials – black, white & grey – as well as shades of blue and subtle patterns. If you want more variety, there are also printed styles and designs with small details.
What is the best material for men's underwear?
Pure cotton is the classic – breathable & comfortable against the skin. Modal is a softer fibre, often with a slight sheen and a more fluid feel. If your skin is sensitive, organic-cotton underwear can be a good option. Lightweight cotton works well in summer, while denser fabrics add warmth in winter.
Different materials mean there is an option for different preferences and skin sensitivities. Also check the finish around the waistband and seams when you buy – those details affect how long the underwear lasts.
Men's underwear multipacks
Multipacks have a clear advantage: a better price per pair and plenty of options in the drawer. Once you've found underwear that works for you, buying several at once saves time in the morning. Multipacks often include basics in black, white & grey, sometimes with different patterns. Mixed packs with blue and black men's underwear are timeless too. A well-stocked underwear drawer simply makes everyday life easier.
From everyday wear to sport: which underwear works when
At the office: clean-cut trunks in black or dark shades. For sport: a close fit, ideally in performance fabric. Every day: whatever feels good – usually cotton boxers or trunks. For long days in slim trousers: styles with a slightly longer leg help prevent riding up.
The right men's underwear is the pair you stop noticing after two hours. Browse the selection and find your fit – ideally in a multipack, so you're set for the week.
