Boxer Briefs vs Trunks FAQ

What is the difference between boxer briefs and trunks?

Boxer briefs have a longer inseam and more coverage. Trunks have a shorter inseam and a more modern, compact fit. Both styles can feel supportive and comfortable when they are made with breathable, soft fabric and a stay put fit.

Which is better for everyday wear, boxer briefs or trunks?

Boxer briefs are a great everyday choice if you want more coverage under jeans, pants, and workwear. Trunks are also great for everyday wear if you prefer a shorter fit with a lighter feel.

Which is better for working out and active lifestyles?

Trunks are a popular pick for active days because they feel lighter and more breathable with a shorter inseam. SilkCut Micro Modal Air fabric is moisture wicking and designed for all day movement.

Do SilkCut boxer briefs and trunks ride up?

SilkCut is designed with a stay put fit to help reduce ride up and bunching. The fabric has comfortable stretch and recovery, so it stays smooth and holds its shape through your day.

Are SilkCut boxer briefs and trunks good for sensitive skin?

Yes. SilkCut Micro Modal Air fabric is ultra soft, smooth, and gentle on sensitive skin. It feels comfortable for long days and daily wear.

Will Micro Modal Air fabric help with sweat and odor?

Micro Modal Air fabric is breathable and moisture wicking, which helps you feel cooler and drier. For best results, choose the right size and follow the care instructions for long lasting softness.

How do I choose the right size?

Use the SilkCut size guide to find your best fit. If you are between sizes, choose the fit you prefer. A snug fit feels more secure, while a relaxed fit gives a little more room.

Should I size up or size down in SilkCut underwear?

Most customers stay true to size. If you prefer a more relaxed feel, you can size up. If you like a closer fit, stay true to size. The fabric stretch helps keep the fit comfortable either way.
