    Backpacking gaunch! What'dya wear?

    I can't find a pair that works. They either chafe, are too hot, or give me a crotch wedgie from hell! Any tips (don't say tighty whities)

    Go to Zellers and get some Stanfield's Ascot. Specifically made for Zellers by Stany, they are a boxer brief, comfy and inexpensive.

    been free dogging since my first year guiding, never looked back.

    17 countries. 6 weeks. One pair of award-winning underwear. (Ok, maybe two.)

    I bought one of each of these for my 19 day stones sheep hunt. Ended up using them on almost every hunt. Wicked for weight and for comfort. I would recommend them. Plus they don't get to stinking. Read reviews on the links.

    MEC used to sell really thin synthetic stuff, $10 a pair, it's always worked well for me... Willy Wickers is another brand, Misty Mountain is another... I like tight fitting boxer/briefs and am plentiful on the gold bond.

    Tried that MEC synthetic stuff and I almost died. The chafing was insane, just wanted to cry. Never again, nothing beats tight boxer briefs, need to keep the boys secure.
