Calvin KleinMen's Cotton Classics 4-Pack Brief

The quality is good, and they last and last. They keep their shape and the elastic band does not get stretched out of shape. It keeps working seemingly as long as the cotton part.The price is good for that kind of quality and durability.It’s why I buy them and quit other brands.

I have been wearing these exclusively for years. As a man with a large junk, these keep everything in place, firm, but not too firm. Ideal for men who need to wrap it around their leg a little also. It’s like it’s hanging in a comfortable hammock, perfectly suspended, with a decent amount of bounce due to the softness of the fabric. I generally buy 12 pairs every 3 - 4 months. That’s around how long they will retain their color and appearance. You could probably wear them longer than that, but not in a romantic situation, maybe just to the gym or something. I do not know if these would be suitable for a small man.

For me, these briefs fit just right. They are snug and comfortable.

I purchased these about 2 years ago and they have held up well thus far. Elastic in leg openings and waistband have held up even after multiple washings. Although not recommended, I'm sure hot water and bleach with hot dryer were used at times. I love the soft cotton material that CK uses on their briefs. These are a true mid rise brief to the waistline, not the full rise with excess material like original tighty whities. I don't like the low rise style that sit below the waist. These are just about right for comfort and style. I ordered "Large". The size though is a little small in the waist, but tolerable. I am 5' 10" 185 LBS and have a 35-36" waist. I can get by wearing mediums in FTL and other brands of briefs. I purchased a pack of three "Large" CKs about the same time from Costco which I believe were made in India. They were sized correctly with plenty of room. The CK logo was a darker almost black lettering on the waistband. These smaller ones I purchased through Amazon were made in Sri Lanka and have a more grey/lighter CK logo. They also are slightly smaller in the crotch as well. I had some issue getting a little hot and sweaty and developed jock itch during a warm spell. Maybe best for cool weather. I love CK for comfort and looks. 4 stars for the sizing issue.

I've been wearing the white CK hip brief (with the fly) for the last few years and I love them. I wanted to see what the differences were between the hip and this classic cut though so here they are. For reference I'm 5'9" and 145 with an athletic build.Classic: Full butt coverage. Sits just below the waist. The pouch has room right when you put them on and conforms to you throughout the day giving even more space as you wear them. Because the cut is slightly more square overall, the pouch is wider so support up front is good but it doesn't lock you into one spot. They do stretch out a little in the butt the longer you wear them because there's more material there. I think they're great under jeans and in cooler weather. Parade worthy? For sure. The caveat is the butt can get a little frumpy depending and I find myself readjusting where the classic's sit on me around the legs and butt.Hip: Cut higher on the butt and legs. Waistband sits low on the hips. The pouch is snug when I put on a fresh pair but it does stretch out a little. The pouch is narrower so it keeps things in one place well. Since there is less fabric covering the butt they don't stretch out much. I feel like these are better for shorts and summer. Parade worthy? Definitely. They stay taught and look great.Overall for me the classic's are more about comfort and the hip are more about fit. Hope that helps you guys shopping both.One last thing - color makes a difference. I also bought the same classic cut in black and they fit differently. They come out of the dryer smaller and they don't stretch out as much as the white briefs do. So keep that in mind when you pick a color.

Favorite underwear for me. Period.

I've bought CK briefs for awhile now and I've bought different colors from this vendor. I find the grey ones are made the best. The black ones were ok but they fell apart after about 6 months to a year. The fabric would pull away from the waistband. I also found the black ones to be smaller than the white ones. But so far the grey ones are holding up nicely. I'm not sure if these are official CK products but they're decent. I will say I feel like the pouch isn't as large as they used to be. If you're well-endowed these might not be the ones for you. But I think avg sized guys will fit nicely. The positive thing is these are 100% cotton which is becoming difficult to find anymore.

I thought my body was changing as I aged because I thought I mistakenly gotten the wrong size on these underwear. This certain style of Calvin's have been my long time favorites and very comfortable to wear and they last a long time if properly laundered. But recent purchases of new ones weren't fitting the same. This last order was fine because there is a difference. Even though they all come from factories in India, and have similar tags, they aren't the same. I now know to look for U4000's. The differences are subtle but they are there. The non U4000's can be a half inch smaller in the waist and a full inch shorter in the pouch drop making them uncomfortable for me. The ones I like are perfect for me.
