Pros: This pair has excellent fabric and sizing. You will not be disappointed in either of those. It’s a classic brief style that is an upgrade from the traditional white briefs. Plus, they are very well-made briefs.
Cons: I didn’t like the leg openings lost their shape during the day. The colors are limited to white, black, and navy. If you don’t like white or classic briefs, you probably won’t like them. Lastly, the shipping is a flat $8
UNB Tim recommendation: If you are a white briefs fan, you may love these, but they weren’t my favorite pairs. I loved the fabric and sizing, but the daily wear did what I hated with white briefs: the leg openings lost their shape. It gave me a fear of things falling out. But if you like white briefs, give them a try; your experience may be different.
After doing the White Briefs show, I decided to try some new whites. One brand that was getting a lot of buzz on Twitter was the “Brady Brand” briefs. The briefs retail for $15 a pair, which is okay for underwear, but the shipping was $8, and I refused to spend that much on shipping. But after New Year’s, they did a 50% off sale, and I got two for one. However, after I bought mine, they did a 75% off sale, and each pair was $4.50.
When I opened the package, I was impressed with the fabric and the feel of the pair. The briefs looked good, and It gave me hope that this pair would live up to all the hype online. I decided to wear them on a somewhat busy day, and at first, they felt good despite not having a defined pouch, which is one of my favorite things in underwear.
As the day wore on and that evening happened, it happened. It is one of the things I hate with classic white briefs. The leg openings didn’t remain tight and started to cause a gap. I remember regular whites back in the day, and I would fall out of them. These did that after a full day. I was disappointed in this pair. Had this not happened, this would have been a perfect pair of white briefs.
The question is, will I wear these again? I will, but there will be days when I’m hanging out at home or doing something simple. If you like white briefs, I would say get a pair and try them out. You may have yet to have the issues I had with the Brady Briefs.
Get the Brady Briefs from the Brady Brand site. They retail for $15 and come in 3 colors.
