One of the pleasures of writing this blog is meeting entrepreneurs. I’m not sure I’d ever have the courage to strike out on my own and found a company, confident that I was filling a glaring hole in the market. So I’m always impressed by those that are.

spot on about price simon, who on earth is going to pay 42 quid for a pair of boxer shorts ~£300 for a weeks supply?! .. completely uneconomical, sure people who like clothes would prefer to spend it elsewhere.

Have you ever tried Burtonwode boxers? Very similar to these but made in England.. and much cheaper at £26 a pair.
Funny. I had a few pairs of boxers made by Lucy Adams a couple years back out of Alumo 170 and their cashmerello. They’ve worn very well, a lot simpler design than what you posted. Those look more like regular shorts than boxers.
a center back seam is a recipe for an uncomfortable fit…
I love comfortable underwear, and always found I’ve had to pay a price for it…have you seen Hermes’ at $500? (i never bought those…but did dream)…the ones I like at the moment are from a newer company (Pozzo & Grieve) in the US, I ran across them at a trunk show about a month ago…similar design, but in my opinion, more attractive and by the look of it more comfortable…same center back seam though, and it hasn’t caused any discomfort for me…I’m going to check out Burtonwode as well though Alistair, thanks! Awesome boxers can really change how you feel in your suit, trust me (especially on a hot day in nyc).
Centre seem has never bothered me, not least because it reduces material under a suit. And i like the look of the thicker waistband – I will try these, thanks.
The proof (in terms of price) is how comfortable the boxer is to wear and these are by far the most comfortable boxer short i have worn. I also think the packaging with the wash bag is novel and means you are less likely to throw away the packaging as supposed to a number of other boxer brands who use plastic or otherwise…
I agree, anyone who starts up their own company deserves great credit.
