Mens Briefs

Briefs are a traditional style of men’s underwear and have probably been the most widely manufactured style of underwear during the past century or so. However, their popularity has slipped and they have given way to the more fashionable style of boxer briefs, although, they do appear to be experiencing a bit of a retro revival.

This style has a full fitting back and pouch front with side panels of varying depths. Some are very minimalist, with only a very narrow side to them and yet others have very deep sides that offer more coverage and a fuller fit.

The brief has also come to be known by other terms, such as a slip and also as a micro or mini, which are descriptive names used by the French designer underwear brand HOM, which is manufactured under licence by Triumph International
