Re: [RBW] Organic Cotton Boxer Briefs for riding recommendations?
ps - I buy Calida cotton boxers on sierratradingpost for about $10/ - they have the least-obnoxious waistband of any boxers But for wicking sweat and preventing chaffing of your soft tissues, nothing beats merino. > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

downtown Bulverde Texas is hardly metro, but south Texas summers will sweat you 100 oz every 40 miles.

Wow, myself being very non-metro only wears multi-pack Fruit of the Loom boxer briefs. No way my brain would let me spend more than $15 for an 8 pack. Some of you guys have some fancy nether regions.

Re: [RBW] Organic Cotton Boxer Briefs for riding recommendations?
My long rides are your short rides, but I use poly cotton and nylon boxers and they work fine as long as they are loose enough; the test: I don't think about them. Low humidity here, of course. I daresay that organic cotton ones will act much like poly cotton ones. Again, I think that success depends on a loose, full cut. I wear them under cotton khaki shorts in summer, under wool knickers and synthetic tights (loose ones) in winter. Tighter undies, cotton and nylon, short or longer legs, bound and chafed.

Re: [RBW] Organic Cotton Boxer Briefs for riding recommendations?
I wear cotton and bamboo/cotton also all winter here in Ohio. well summer too even in the heat/humidity. I don't even own any wool shirts, lol. I've tried some but none of them fit they way I like and if clothing doesn't fit/feel just right I won't wear it regardless of the fabric. To me any and all fabric can be both over and under rated , just depends on the person. Yep STP is a great place to find closeouts on just the ones you may like at a reduced price. When I find something I really like I'll often buy more, sometimes many more than just one ! It's fun to know when not to buy, and when to buy alot when the opportunity arises !

Re: [RBW] Organic Cotton Boxer Briefs for riding recommendations?
You are right, Lee, the soggy boggies may well be an issue and that is part of the test. However, my ibex wool t-shirts wore out last year (after 3 years of use -- seems like the "norm" for timeline in abused clothing) and I went with organic cotton and never had an issue with the vs. the wool, including in winter as my base layer. How much of that is Colorado dry air? No idea. I may get away with cotton here where others can't in higher humidity.

Re: [RBW] Organic Cotton Boxer Briefs for riding recommendations?
What about sweaty soggy underwear Deacon? I know for money that cotton is less expensive but wool allows moisture to be removed while riding while cotton hold onto it more. Are you willing to ride less comfortable on a bicycle doing long rides?
