2(X) IST Men's Essential Cotton Y-back Thong 3-pack

These Y-backs are absolutely the most comfortable underwear I've ever owned! I've worn tighty-whities my entire life (well, not yet I guess). Most of them are granny panty boring, and they accomplish nothing beyond strapping my man parts to my body. I've tried a couple of regular thong styles, but they were so skimpy and low-rise that they rode below my hip bones, and the thong strap rubbed and chafed in all the wrong places. With my mature build, they simply look and feel better if I can wear them a little closer to my natural waistline. This underwear is more generously cut in both the overall rise, and in the size and contouring of the pouch. I would have preferred that the pouch be narrower toward the top, but that’s just me. The thong strap is very soft, and the tagless microfiber-lined waistband stays in position well, rather than sliding down toward my hips as some do. The waistband is pretty thin, though, and it tends to roll down because my abdomen is softer than it should be. That shouldn’t be an issue for guys with more athletic builds. Also, the elastic used for the center and Y-straps stretches easily, which adds even more comfort. The well-contoured pouch is made of a cotton jersey knit that's lighter weight than a typical t-shirt, so there's nothing about it that restricts movement. I'm sure the Y-back design makes the thong strap less irritating, too. They run absolutely true to size, at least for me. Hopefully they won't disappointment me by shrinking when they're washed. As at least one other reviewer stated, they feel like wearing almost nothing at all. In fact, after receiving them today and wearing one for a couple of hours, I liked them so much that I ordered another 3-pack. As a side note, I originally ordered these in white, based on the images in the listing. I didn't notice until later that the color is described as "Pink/White". Trust me, there is nothing pink about them - they are solid white, thankfully, except for the light gray logo on the waistband. Considering their excellent price, you won't find anything better for the money. Highly recommended!!

Fit very well. Extremely comfortable

Overall these are pretty good. They are true to size and good pouch size. The cotton gets a little stiff after a few washes unfortunately, but they remain mostly comfortable. The Y-back is unique and comfortable (ie doesn't pull too much on the back side). Only negative is if you pants ride down, the band shows its a thong more easily since there isn't material pulling the band down. Sexy and comfy though overall. Think I am going to try the nylon version to see if it is more soft and comfortable. A bit on the pricier side but the quality and fit are there.

Perfect for under gym gear (tights) or swimsuits. Comfortable to wear. Always keep some on hand.

Runs perhaps a little small. I like the Y back, but the string in back is very narrow. If you like that feeling, it's great, but I actually find that a little more fabric in the back is actually less irritating and, as I move or play, feels better against sensitive areas. Check put this alternative, though -- Jockey is making a very well designed thong with plenty of room, and comes in sizes S to XXL. It's nice finding something designed for us bigger guys, and 2Xist underwear in general is not really made for bigger guys

Love these since 1993 when I got my first ones. Literally THERE IS NOTHING more confortable on the mens thong market as these are.

I followed the sizing and they fit perfect. The pouch is comfortable and gives a little stretch when needed. The string is essentially unnoticeable so no problem there. The only thing that might be an issue down the road is the thicker piece where the pouch is sewn to the string. It flips outward, but it doesn’t change the effectiveness of the pouch. I picked up a 3-pack for $22. I think they are worth the price. I am washing on delicate and lime drying to get them to last.

Just awesome!

The waistband elastic is noticeably thinner and easier to stretch VS the same product purchased previously - feels like it will also lose elasticity a lot faster

Cuidado al comprar el anuncio dice pack de 3 y solamente envian 1 Por eso les doy 1* Por lo demas esta bien

UN STING AVEC UN SUPPORT PARTICULIER A L'ARRIERE QUI FAIT CA DIFFERENCE; ATTENTION AU CHOIX DE VOTRE TAILLE CAR CE STRING TAILLE TRES GRAND, ET EN CE QUI ME CONCERNE J'AI PRIS DU S ALORS QUE HABITUELLEMENT JE MRENDS DU L. A MOINS QUE VOUS SOUHAITIEZ UN POCHE D'ANE AU LIEU D'UN STRING

Top Strings, gutes Material, ordentlich Platz vorne, sehen gut aus Insgesamt gibt es von mir 5 Sterne, wobei ich normal L/XL trage, hier habe ich M geordert (hatte sie schon mal vor Jahrzehnten und erinnerte mich dass sie dich sehr groß ausfielen) und selbst bei M empfinde ich das Popoband als einen Tick zu lang. Wer selber nähen kann, würde es vielleicht kürzen, manche mögen es aber auch so...ich überlege mal S zu ordern, das Gummiband ist elastisch genug Ändert aber nicht an der vollen Punktzahl. Update nachdem ich mich getraut habe die Größe S (wie gesagt normal L oder XL zb. bei Manstore) kann ich nur sagen jetzt sitzen sie. Das Band hinten ist kürzer und somit ist der, bei größeren Größen vorhandene, unförmige Beutel gestrafft und sitzt vernünftig. Der ganze String ist so elastisch und die schmalen Bänder bieten halt wenig Widerstand, dass ordentlich kleiner bestellt werden kann.

I have always liked 2xist. especially these ones. I wear them to work, and during the summer months, I cant go commando and i hate the bulkiness of underwear that sticks, this satisfies, both, minimal and coverage in the right areas.
