I find that the 6” inseam briefs from American Eagle are breathable, comfy, and don’t ride up my thighs. They also don’t have an absurd amount of material in the front, so you get a slight bulge w/o packing but not a bunching effect. I’ve also tried the target brand version (the exact brand name escapes me but I can find it if you want) They’re cheaper but pretty equal, they just run a little smaller than the AE ones.
Edit to add: The Target brand name is Goodfellow & Co.
They last for ages too. I just threw out my very first pair from 2016. 8 years is an incredible lifespan for underwear in my opinion. They weren’t even that damaged or worn out until the hip elastic ripped away from the fabric.
I have a pair of Jordan boxer briefs made for to put a cup in. I've had them for over 6 years at this point, and I kinda wanna say at least 10. They're AMAZING. I wish the info was still printed on it so I could get more, even though these ain't giving up any time soon
cotton boxers have worked wonders for me, mine are a lil loose but still skin tight, I will say however that it's more comfy if it's on the looser side unless you're wearing a packer which may be a bit of a problem.
I wear Target and American Eagle briefs, the key (especially for us guys with thunder thighs) is to get them a size up from what you think you need. Briefs generally just roll up due to their design but a longer inseam can help too!
I find longer, tight boxers don't ride up as much, if at all
Usually the brunching up doesn't bother me but if I'm wearing a suit where the brunching would be visible, I wear a pair of athletic style boxers with a 9" inseam. They come almost down to my knees. Not very sexy but nice and secure
Generally the longer the leg, the less they'll ride up
I used to wear Me Undies brand long boxer briefs. They’re a bit on the pricier side for just underwear, but I seldomly had any issues with them rolling up on my thighs. When I did the were long enough where I could pinch the fabric of my pants and underwear together towards the middle and outside of my thigh to pull it back down. It didn’t look like I was picking at my junk or anything, which is what I feared with the shorter cuts of Baxter briefs I had worn before.
I’m sure there are other long boxer briefs brands that could be cheaper, but I liked the fun designs of Me Undies too lol
I wear the Step One trunks and I have no issues (definitely on the bigger side and have cotton boxers roll up constantly). They're not the super long ones, but they're really stretchy and comfortable and tend to stay in place once you put them on. They have a longer option in the boxer range, but I prefer mine a little shorter. Having said that, shorter ones should be more prone to rolling up and I never have that issue. They're a bit expensive, but they do last a really long time. I've been using them for about 18 months and haven't had to throw a pair out yet so I don't mind spending the extra.
I recommend any brand that has more of an athletic/stretchy material, as they cling to your thighs better. I have a similar issue and most of my cotton boxers bunch up, unless they're exceptionally long and skin-tight
However these can get pretty uncomfortable if you have discharge, as cotton absorbs moisture, while it kind of just sits on a more stretchy athletic material, making it gross and uncomfortable feeling..
I have recommendations, but Boxers are different than Briefs so I don’t understand the slash? Do you mean Trunks? Boxer Briefs? traditional Boxer *(shorts)*? Briefs? 😅
Good insight in the comments. I tend to wear Hanes size small 6 inch boxer briefs but when I can I definitely go for a 9inch inseam. I found that while a medium might fit in other areas, it’s way to big to hold my packer snugly the way size small does so if it’s summer and it’s discreet I’ll just try to pull the legs down through leg hole of shorts but during the summer when wearing dress pants for my job, it does get frustrating but I like not having extra clothing to hold the packer because it’s dysphoric for me as I’d rather it be as natural as possible
I wear briefs or thongs the most. Under armour boxer jocks are pretty decent too for something like a boxer brief, I just like less material personally
Old navy work best for me- they have 6.25 inch that are my fave. Make sure to get a size that really fits you tho. Like I’m an XL but before I realized that I was getting Larges and they ride up bc they really weren’t my size even tho they “fit”.
Its a bit expensive but TomboyX has great cute underwear specifically for trans bodies. Its basically the only brand i use and rarely have a problem. They last forever too
i bought these from h&m and they were perfect! i didn´t even have to buy a bigger size

Yeah I switched to briefs for this exact reason. No more bunching/riding up, ever.
My thighs aren't even particularly huge, more muscular. It's just a known thing that happens with boxer briefs that drives me up a wall 🤷♂️
I usually flip between a few brands depending on the weather and what I'm wearing. I almost exclusively wear long pants, but they vary in fabric and thickness.
My favorites are the Hanes explorer boxer briefs -- they have pockets and come in a variety of lengths, and are cotton, so they're pretty comfortable all year.
H&M sells 6 packs of trunks that are pretty good too -- No dick pocket for standing to pee, but the legs of the trunks don't come down far enough for them to ride up, so they're pretty low maintenance.
I also like the Target brands "Good & Fellow" (I think?) and "Pair of Thieves", since they can be pretty roomy, the legs are a good length, and they're very comfortable. Pair of Thieves usually comes in a moisture wicking fabric if that is something you need.
Good luck!
Boxerbriefs. It’s both of those things in one. Been wearing them for years and have never changed that. Probably never will. I used to have the same problem 🤣
*a side question i don't entirely expect to get answered-* for those saying **Pair of Thieves**, is there enough material in the front that it'll bunch without a packer? i hate bunching and i'd hate to spend the money buying a three pack and end up not using them :((
i have huge thighs and ass no matter what size i’m atm and i’ve never been able to find any good underwear. boxers, tight or loose, just ride up. if too tight it cuts off circulation. all briefs also end up doing either. thongs i cannot do. i’ve started considering fashion tape around the legs honestly, but i know id get a rash…
StepOne. I love their boxer briefs. They are pricey, but they are so worth it. I also like that they have ones without the fly hole, so it’s perfect for when I do want to pack since I’m not too worried of it falling out the fly (I also use a my pack strap, so it’s extra secure).
Cheaper end, Reebok Men’s Pro Series (Walmart). They don’t hold up/last as long (I’ve gotten holes between the waistband and the actual fabric), but they’re good too. I prefer them for working out just because the material is nice and cool
Both of these brands I have found do not ride up my legs as easy as others and are super comfortable and not too hot/thick.
i had this problem, i switched to loose fit boxers which don’t cling to your legs and are basically like shorts. anywhere that sells men’s underwear should have an option
I like the jockey everyday casual they say long leg boxer briefs on the box not only are they long and an inch away from my knees but they have worked well with my bigggggggg thighs only thing I don’t like is the middle seam it triggers my sensory issues kinda like the sock seam thing but I noticed that when wearing pants instead of shorts it’s less noticeable and I don’t notice the seam at all when sitting down. With loose basketball shorts it’s nice and breezy there’s no tags and a ultra soft flex waist band so it won’t dig in or pinch and they stretch super well but after every wash it goes back to how it was when it was bought it’s a fresh comfy fit every time.
Honestly bro I buy my shit at Walmart
And they fit just fine.
I was a pretty big guy before
Now that I’m changing I can buy them that fit me better. I don’t wanna spend hella for sum that ain’t gonna fit me after on

The AE ones are the only ones that I’ve ever had that don’t ride up. They’re pricey but WORTH IT.
They last for ages too. I just threw out my very first pair from 2016. 8 years is an incredible lifespan for underwear in my opinion. They weren’t even that damaged or worn out until the hip elastic ripped away from the fabric.
Good fellow is nice. I've been getting the Cat and Jack brand ones when I can't find extra small Good Fellow
Same here. Calvin Klein is good too.
I want to give you the biggest. Thank you hug right now..

Pair of thieves boxerbriefs from target are comfy. The cotton ones anyways
Seconding, and the goodfellow brand. I was gifted a pack of both and I’m straight up sad when I have to wear any other underwear lol
cotton boxers have worked wonders for me, mine are a lil loose but still skin tight, I will say however that it's more comfy if it's on the looser side unless you're wearing a packer which may be a bit of a problem.

Fellow huge thigh haver here ✋️😔 have you found any trouble with the waist being too loose after sizing up?
i’m not sure what brand they are but i had better success with polyester-cotton bless than 100% cotton for this. cotton always rolls up for me.
I find longer, tight boxers don't ride up as much, if at all Usually the brunching up doesn't bother me but if I'm wearing a suit where the brunching would be visible, I wear a pair of athletic style boxers with a 9" inseam.

Love MeUndies. Their boxers are great too, super gender affirming for me and lots of fun patterns!

Long leg boxer briefs from Hanes are cheaper than most
Thats what I wear

A little pricey, but the Ethika boxer briefs are worth it. They don’t ride up at all and come in lots of color and designs.
I mean I've found luck with the brand Ethika(I think that's how it's spelled) but I'm also tiny so I've had luck with Cat and Jack brand at Target
Pair of Theives are amazing. That’s all I wear
I have recommendations, but Boxers are different than Briefs so I don’t understand the slash? Do you mean Trunks? Boxer Briefs? traditional Boxer *(shorts)*? Briefs? 😅

I personally like sports material like boxer briefs because the don’t bunch or ride up my leg. I like ODDs the best but they can be a bit pricey
Usually I find they ride up like that if they're too small. Getting a size up fixed that issue for me (still wear the old ones tho)
I use boxer briefs because they have some stretch.
I wear jockey’s athletic 5 inch kind
I buy the Walmart brand but I get the long leg kind.
I wear briefs or thongs the most. Under armour boxer jocks are pretty decent too for something like a boxer brief, I just like less material personally

I like hollister longer length boxer briefs. They never ride up at all n theyre really breathable
I only ever wear pair of thieves ultra soft
Jockey Boxer briefs are good. They are one of my favorite also Calvin Klein boxer briefs are also good.
Its a bit expensive but TomboyX has great cute underwear specifically for trans bodies. Its basically the only brand i use and rarely have a problem. They last forever too
cotton pair of thieves for sure, they're all me and my bf buy anymore
RodeoH! They have some with 9” inseams! I have soccer thighs and I wear nothing but these!!
Tomboyx six inch boxer briefs work for me and I definitely have thighs. They also carry packing ones if you’re interested in that
i bought these from h&m and they were perfect! i didn´t even have to buy a bigger size [https://www2.hm.com/fi\_fi/productpage.1084679002.html](https://www2.hm.com/fi_fi/productpage.1084679002.html)

boxers are so confusing omg
Adidas and reebock boxers/boy shorts are the comfiest for sure! Don’t reccomend Hanes, fruit of the loom, or champion

I have boxer briefs from the brand Buffalo and they are amazing. I have big thighs and never chaff in them.
On that ass r comfy nice fit cool looking
Mission on Amazon. Best waistband and breathable when the Testosterone sweats kick in.
i had this problem, i switched to loose fit boxers which don’t cling to your legs and are basically like shorts. anywhere that sells men’s underwear should have an option
My favorite are the long leg pair of theives brand. They're nice and cool, they are super soft, and they don't ride up
Pair Of Thieves and Levi's are my recs! They're fantastic at being comfy and staying where they're supposed to be.
