Underwear

[khoffnbud]

OK, awkward I know but lets get into it. Simple, Aug Sheep hunt-what do you use? At $50 or so buck a pair, just want to avoid the 'I'll try it out thing". Synthetic or merino?

[Wild Images]

Marino wool

[Bear Brawler]

Saxx. Look em up, they make all kinds and in different material. I have a few pairs, will be getting more. They help eliminate ball rash, super comfy putting yourself in a pair and keeping the boys off your thighs.

[Everett]

Merino all the way.

[Bear Brawler]

Saxx has long jons and boxers in a merino blend, doesn't get much more comfortable.

Green....not yellow. :wink:

As the founding member of Team Gold Bond said............


You'll never go back. Its like 10 000 little elves, dancing on your nuts.!

[huntcoop]

You're absolutely correct, Green is King.

[pin_head]

Another vote for saxx. They keep the boys where they're supposed to be and away from your thighs. They wick well too, it's nice to get to the top of the hill with a dry and comfy bag.

I got a pair of First Lite Red Desert boxers last year off the Hermit. I tried them out in August in the heat to see how they felt and they performed above my expectations. I have tried synthetic and am not a fan. Merino wool all the way. And Gold Bond is king!!!

A must for every outdoorsman. Dust' em if ya got 'em.

[khoffnbud]

[Stone Sheep Steve]

Another vote for saxx. Try them and you won't be sorry.

[MB_Boy]

anybody use icebreaker stuff?

Long underwear.....yes. Great stuff.

Disappointed with Icebreaker's durability, might give Smartwool a go when its time to replace.

[leadpillproductions]

Under armour with gold bond simple the best slightest breeze your boys are cool

Interesting....I have had my long underwear and base layer tops for 4 years with lots of use and they are great. In saying that though I have some socks which are holding up "average".

[Casagrande]

All my pieces have small holes and tear easily. Waistband failed way too soon. The boxers have been good though.

[skuntor]

You guys are gonna laugh but... Wife bough me some lulu lemon ginch and it's awesome.

[SR80]

for the guys using SAXX, are you running the merino blend or the synthetic?

[Stone Sheep Steve]

I'm running the pro elites for backpacking. Full synthetic.

thanks SSS. That's what I have and planned on bringing.

I'm neither pro or elite and I certainly don't have a stomach like that guy but they sure feel good when you put them on!

[Bear Brawler]

Another thing I have discovered is a cream called "Fresh Balls" It's wonderful stuff, you put a small gob of it in your hands, spackle the boys and voila! I heard about it on the Howard Stern show, they were using it and eventually ran adds. I found it at London Drugs and was amazed. My dad was visiting last August and the heat was getting to him, he's a little heavy and he would sweat when I put him into waders and took him fishing. I made him try it, then he made me take him to London Drugs. There was only 1 tube left and I was needing another also. My dad saw a tube of fresh breasts and it's the same thing, we compared the ingredients and exactly the same, only a little change in smell, guys and girls marketing at it's best. He bought the breasts, thinking maybe my mom would try and said that at almost 70yrs old, chances were mom wasn't ever gonna smell the difference. I laughed and cried at the same time. Either way, go try this stuff, better than Goldbond!

[SR80]

Hmm, might have to give ol fresh balls a try. haha

Merino forsure. However the green gold bond is key. The combo of merino and green gold bond is what dreams are made of.

[Bear Brawler]

Saxx in the merino blend and fresh balls will out perform any other underwear and gold bond combo, period.

[Wentrot]

Hmm I need to try this. I can ring my undies AND pants out after a day hiking. Nasty business.

[RiverOtter]

My biggest bitch with anything synthetic is stink.

Merrino Ice Breaker boxers or briefs is all I wear, along with GB Green.
A Zip-Loc bag and some powdered Cold Water Tide every couple or three days and life is good.......:mrgreen:

my lower parts have never been more happy, I was even able to drop the gold bond team

[SR80]

I tried to track down some fresh balls at london drugs today but they no longer carry it. Damn!

'cause its crap, nothing beats Bond, Gold Bond.

[Bear Chaser]

I found the Gold Bond to be the cause of excess dryness and itching. Dropped the Gold Bond and quit scratching till I bled to get relief. Now I have happy healthy balls.

[The Hermit]

I wear Saax in the city, and First Lite's Red Desert Merino when hunting. Best in both worlds. Oh and yeah GB too... I find that a little in the pits ensures no stink-o-la even in a cotton/poly golf shirt!

ok, im a gold bonder myself. Picked up a nice small bottle for my trip this august

[russm]

Dont worry your not alone, I whe stipend her decision when I got the first pair but now I have several pairs, under armour boxers and core shorts are nice to they keep the nuts a little more snug I found.

Deep down I knew that but I was still kinda worried.

I ordered a pair-worth a try.

all I wear now I like them that much

[Bear Brawler]

I was given a pair of my package and they don't even come close to the pairs of Saxx I have. That being said, I have never shopped for the my package brand so I don't know what they have in their line up but Saxx is the best.

Any idea which "model" you have? I ordered the action series lol just curious.

[Bear Brawler]

I just looked, they say weekday inside, but they are a large and I'm more a medium so maybe this is why I don't like em, but the quality of them compared my SAXX is not even close.

[Stone Sheep Steve]

I also have a pair of My Package and, while I do like them, I much prefer my SAXX....although I have not explored different models of MP's.

SSS

[Wentrot]

Well looks like I will need to give both a try I guess. Either way they should be better than the current fruit of the looms.
