o A higher percentage of elastane will make the underwear more form-fitting.
Selection of stretch cotton men's underwearoSecond most popular material for men's underwear. Particularly used for floating boxers, but also boxers and briefs.
§ This material is entirely natural, for a softer and hypoallergenic contact.
§ On the other hand, the absence of synthetic fiber allows the cotton to express its intrinsic rigidity. So much the better for those who don't want a garment that is too close to the body, but beware the rigidity makes the garment creaseable, so light blows from the iron will be welcome, even necessary.

§ This synthetic fiber, with remarkable longevity, offers great resistance in line with its elasticity. Note in the advantages of use: this material does not crease, keeps its shape and retains its color well.
Selection of men's polyester underwearo Modal is an artificial textile fiber obtained from wood cellulose fibers (therefore natural).
§ Aesthetically, the modal is distinguished by its silky and shiny aspect, rather luxurious than sexy.
§ Modal boxers are even more absorbent and breathable than cotton. Pleasant to the touch, like silk, this material offers the advantage of being easy to maintain and resistant to washing.
