Customer Review :
Oh man is this awesome. Oh MAN!
The first thing I did when I got these was strip down to my birthday suit and slide these bad boys over my legs. The soft nylon is a perfect material for underwear. Why is it so hard to find?! Cotton is the worst, and you'll be saying it with me when you try these on. Anyway, the have really nice support for "your boys," which comes in handy for bike riding and other activities. The odor resistance is awesome too - the actually don't stink after a 4.5 mile bike ride! And washing is awesome - just rinse with a little soap, and hang dry - they will dry in an hour or too, and you'll be ready to glide them over your leg-hairs once more!
The one minor con is that they have a lot less friction than cotton, so if you wear loose pants and bend over, you can almost be sure that your underwear will do everything in its frictionless power to escape the confines of your Levi's. This is minor though - wear a belt.

Comfort, Comfort, Comfort
I've purchased the ExOfficio Boxer and Boxer Briefs. They are both extremely comfortable. Ditto on all the other positive reviews. I've notice some comparison between the material and comfort of this brand vs. the Under Armor brand. Frankly, I'm a big fan of the UA tees and the entire range of products. But I like the Exofficio boxer and boxer briefs much better. The boxer are about 1-2 inches longer and better made. I like the extra length. The UA is only 4 inches in the inseam - too short and nerdy. The boxer brief is not as tight around my body as UA. In both cased, the elastic waist band is also more comfortable - doesn't pull as much. You can't go wrong with UA - but ExOfficio is the best. I've since purchased several more of Boxer shorts and Boxer Briefs. I also like their Tees. It's all pricy, but well worth it. You'll love them too.

Pretty darn good
Used these on the trail and they work as advertised. These are pretty darn comfortable. They are on par with the un&er @rmour and a sm@rt w0ol boxers out there. However, if you are looking for the MOST comfortable I'd say the p@tagonia's are still a better pair of boxer briefs... of course they're twice as expensive so I guess that makes sense.

The Best Activity Boxer in this Price Range!
I am an underwear fanatic. For me its the most important item of clothing period when speaking about overall comfort. An uncomfortable pair of boxers can make even the most comfortable outfits unbearable. I have tried boxers from pretty much every manufacturer that exists and Ex Officio's Give'N'Go boxer is at the top of the list for the 25 dollar price range. I have read a lot of the reviews on Amazon and the people that say these are the best boxers on the market simply dont know what they are talking about. I dont know if they just aren't very good at judging underwear or if its that they simply haven't tried the better brands that exist. Either way there are better boxers out there, its just going to cost you more money to get them. For example, Cloudveil's boxers are not only more comfortable, they are also far better at wicking away moisture. With that being said they are also 60.00 a pair. Hanro of Switzerland is another brand that is superior to Ex Officio and there are others as well. So again dont listen to those trying to make these boxers out to be the greatest thing since sliced bread because there are better boxers out there. Again its just going to cost you more money to get them.
It may seem like I am giving these a negative review but I am not. These are outstanding boxers and I gave them 5 stars. They are extremely comfortable and the wicking properties are decent. If your a really heavy sweater than you might be a bit disappointed in regards to the wicking properties and you might want to think about investing in some of those higher quality brands. I wear the Ex Officio if I am going to be doing light to moderate activities. They are perfect for traveling. If I am going to be doing more strenuous activities like working out or skiing then I definitely reach for my higher quality boxers like the Cloudveil.
Bottom line - While these are not the best boxers out there as some have suggested, they are one of the best boxers out there in the 25.00 dollar price range. They have a nice fit, are extremely comfortable and have decent wicking properties. If your looking for the most bang for your buck then you should definitely try a pair of these. Odds are you will wind up buying more! If your new to Ex Offico then I highly recommend checking out their entire line of clothing. They are easily one of my favorite clothing companies. Their Insect repellent clothing...now that might be the greatest thing since sliced bread!!
Highly recommended!

Streches out a little bit
These are pretty good. They're definitely better than Fruit of the Loom brand boxer-briefs. There's a little bit more pouch in the front of these, which helps support everything while moving around.
They breathe well and feel well ventilated and cool, even at the end of the day.
Unfortunately, the elastic/lycra/spandex/whatever content is low enough that these will stretch out throughout the day. Support and fit decrease, and waistband rolls up by the end of the day.
Overall, I rate these 4 of 5 stars.
X-Bionic brand hold their shape better throughout the day, but don't cool as well as these.

real nice while I had them
Easy to run in, comfortable, dried in a heartbeat (I live in the desert). Colors didn't fade in the wash. Didn't get all wrinkly.
How I managed to lose my shorts is a different issue all together. They're surely much loved in their new home.

Great shorts and I don't miss pockets
I love these shorts. These shorts are light, thin, dry quick and wick moisture like a champ. Durable and quality construction holds up wash after wash, I never put them in the dryer and they completely dry in a matter of a few hours. They have no pockets and I consider this a plus due to the fact I use them for running and am never tempted to throw keys or other debris in them. If you are in need of a great pair of quality inexpensive workout, running, cross training, soccer shorts these will fit the bill.

Static Cling!!!!!!!!!!!!
As soon as I put these on they clung instantly. They did not hang as I would like but instead stuck to my legs. I am in a humid environment also so I wouldn't expect this right now. I returned them.

Customer Review :
Great shorts, great price
My daughter gave me a pair of these for Christmas three years ago, and I have run in them at least once a week since then. I came here because I wanted to find out where to order more. I've got several pairs of shorts that I run in, and these are my favorite because: they are 100% cotton, they have pockets, and I like the fit. Some say to order a size larger because they shrink slightly. They do, but I like the amount mine shrank because they are more like running shorts and less like basketball shorts, which are a pain to run in because of the ridiculous length. So I have the size I normally wear, and even with shrinkage, they are fine. If you buy them for looks like you would a normal pair of shorts to knock around in, you might want to order larger than your typical size. But if, like me, you're buying them to run in, I would say get your usual size.

Soffe Men's classic pocket shorts
Just got them and put them on right away. They are just perfect. Maybe they could be a 1/4 of an inch larger around the waist. They have a wide waist band to hold the shorts up nicely. The material is just right. It is not flimsy, cheap cotton. It is like a medium heavy material. The length is just right. Just like in the picture, above the knee. I am happy I got them.

Perfect Sports Bra for voluptuous women
This is the second Enell bra I've purchased and it has changed my world. I used to have to wear 2 or even 3, 'high impact' or 'running' sports bras because nothing seemed to keep the girls in place as I wanted. This design is like armor - which I love - (and it's not a pretty frilly thing)- and because of that I feel confident to go running or play tennis or jump on a trampoline, whatever - cos everything is protected! It is the perfect sports bra for well-endowned women.

The Buckley's of Bras
First, let me say that this bra works. I bought it when I was a G cup, and it was the only sports bra I encountered that actually held me in place. There was absolutely no movement, and I found myself wanting to tell large chested women in my yoga class about what a great find I had made. That being said, I call this the Buckley's because just like Buckley's tastes awful but works, this bra looks awful but works. I can't imagine wearing this as my everyday bra because there are some very noticeable lines. First there is the ridge running down my centre that looks like my mother mated with some spiny dinosaur, and then there are the lines horizontally dissecting my chest. Even with a tank top under my shirt, these were still quite noticeable. Empreinte and other companies make much more attractive and comfortable (albeit expensive) bras for everyday wear. For a sports bra, though, I just want things held in place, and this bra does the job. If you want a pretty, dainty bra, this isn't for you. If you're okay with something akin to the granny panty look so long as you're held in place, this is the bra you're looking for.
Rating :    
Best sports bra I've ever had
It's not the prettiest looking bra in the world but it does it's job perfectly. When running in other sports bras I felt like I had trouble regulating my breathing because of the extra pressure being put on my chest from the bouncing but I don't have that problem with this one at all. I've been able to run farther than I ever had in my life. The only thing I don't like is the seams running through the middle of the chest can be seen through a t-shirt and the feel of the bra takes a little bit of getting used to. I would still recommend this product to any other large chested women.

Finally Secure!
This is the sixth Enell sports bra I have purchased and I can honestly say this bra has changed my life! As a large-busted professional doing active work, I was never able to find a sports bra that fit correctly. The enell gives me the support and "containment" that I need to do my work more confidently. I originally bought this bra just for work, but found it so awesome, that I ended up wearing it everyday. No more constantly pulling up straps or readjusting the band. My clothes fit better, and I don't feel like I am always in danger of "falling out." I also have had a huge improvement of headaches and back pain since wearing this bra. I now feel this bra is something I can't live without. Make sure you follow the size charts, as sizing can be a little difficult at first, but once you find the right size it is well worth the extra effort. I don't mind that it costs a little more, because of the awesome comfort and support, and superb quality that lasts a long time. Thank you Enell!

a good bra, be careful when measuring for it though
I ordered a size 3, and then when I got it, it seemed less than wonderful. So I measured again and exchanged it for a size 2. The size 2 is amazing. I was wearing two bras all the time for working out (I'm a DD) and even those two together did nothing compared to this bra. It is wonderful. I'm a jogger, and it makes jogging a lot more comfortable. There's not NO movement at all, but it is greatly diminished. The only negative I see is that it is kind of obvious in many shirts, the design of the bra seems to make my chest look weird. Overall, I love this bra and would reccomend it to anyone who is a C cup and above.

Editorial Review :
A perennial favorite, our popular Quest Short delivers value, fit, durability and Tour 3D Chamois® comfort.
Customer Review :
measure the chamois size
My Perl Izumi shorts measure 16x6 inches giving lots of protection over a wide area. The padding goes down your leg a bit thus preventing pinching of sensitive structures that occurs with narrow padding. I bought a pair of tri shorts measuring 10x2.5 inches which begin to pinch after an hour or two. Small areas may work well for sprint triathelons but if you plan on hours of cycling then the larger size seems necessary.
Rating :     
Best pair yet
This is the most comfortable & best performing pair of cycling shorts I've owned. The last pair of another make had a similar style of padding that I got from my bike shop. These far surpass those and at a better price. Delivery was unexpectedly quick as well. I'll be buying a 2nd pair of these rather than switching between this better pair and my older breaking down shorts (one is 5 years old, the other only 2 years and is already breaking down).
I would recommend these to anyone who's looking for a new pair.
Rating :     
Great quality and price
These shorts are a terrific value. They have features that rival shorts of twice or three times the price. At 200# the L fit me perfectly if just a little tight in the legs. The material is really thin and slick feeling (both good things),the quality of stitching and finishing is superb, and I'm told they look good too. Most importantly, the shorts have a great pad. I don't like too much padding and this one feels like a pantload off the bike; but on the bike everything finds the right place and it provides very good comfort on the sit bones and in terms of friction. These are my choice for any rides over one hour.

Question : Apparel !!!?
do you know where can i get a light jacket with a senegal flag on the back of the jacket.
Answer:
Your best bet of getting something like that would be store.theoffside.comAnother possibility would be to get the jacket separately, anywhere you choose, and order a flag patch from www.unmemberflags.com/flagpatches.htmlI'm afraid the size of 3..5" x 2.25" makes these more appropriate for the front than the back of a jacket, though.

Question : How do people steal from Urban Outfitters or American apparel?
You got me, I'm curious.Many people tell me they've stolen from urban outfitters or american apparel and im wondering how they dont get caught!
Answer:
The music in there is so loud, no one notices if an entire shelf of denims comes tumbling down, nevertheless the skulking teen in the background stashing the graphic T's into her hoodie pockets.- The stores don't attach security tags, either, so people grab what they want, walk into the dressing rooms, pull off the price tabs, stash it into their bags or under their clothes, toss the clothes they don't want into a bin, and they walk out. Plus, the stores don't have the alarm systems either, so the place is like the biggest target for cheap, fashion-secluded teens.- Who actually wants to steal from AA? Everything in it's black-trashbag crap.

Question : how does apparel manufacturing process work? I need from start to deployemnet. Does anyone know?
I need information on the Product life Cycle for apparel process. From Design, sewing, cutting, marketing and everything in between.
Answer:
I am an independent designer and I will tell you the way it goes through it's life cycle. Usually the first step is to design what you want your garment to look like. Your design should include a template of a basic human figure. The clothes can be drawn to fit on top, then the lines can be erased, but if you are good at drawing then the clothes can be included in the actual drawing. Many designers make side notes on their sketch as to what fabric, texture, and additional details they want on their garment. These are called specs. Specs are specific details written on the side of the drawing with an arrow pointing to where the detail is to be included in the design. After designing whatever is to be made, the next step is what fabric is going to work best for that specific garment. Some fabric won't work well for cutting on the bias, etc. The next step is to create the pattern, which is a whole other skill in itself. Then, the pattern is applied to the fabric to be MARKED (marking). This is the process of the pattern being transported to the fabric. This is usually done by placing a carbon sheet, FACE DOWN, on the fabric and then placing the pattern on top so when you mark, the lines will show on the fabric. Then, the fabric is cut. Yes, these are completely different professions. From there, the fabric is to begin being constructed or sewn together. This is usually done by an outsourcing agent, where the labor is cheaper. Then sent to the manufacturer to tag it, package it, etc. This is the time when the product is being marketed. The product is then shipped to stores for people to buy, where the price includes labor, overhead costs, shipping, import/export tax and usually a 40% markup on the total price of those things so that the manufacturer can make a profit.
