Calvin Klein Mens Cotton Multipack Briefs

The classic has been remade and some changes are more noticeable than others. The look appears largely unchanged from a distance although – in reality – the cotton is cheaper and thinner, the logo detailing much flatter and accurately representative of the CK logo, and the fit/sizing is totally different/confusing. Im a 32 waist but, since working out more regularly, I began needing the 34 size in the previous generation of this product. Now, according to the S-XL sizing for this generation of CK briefs, I should wear a medium (32-34). But going with that size makes these go from tighty whities to low-rise extra-tighty whities. After a few washes and using the gentlest of cycles, these briefs become much tighter fitting, reducing the rise slightly and the crotch size greatly. Its too snug and low for the cut being sold. And thats coming from a fan of hip briefs and other cuts. Not about modesty, just accuracy. And - btw - if you get the low-rise version of these briefs in your supposed size expect some major plumbers crack and minimal coverage up front. But, order a size up and what happens? They pretty much fit just like youd expect! Theyll appear large, but lo and behold, after just a few wash and dry cycles they shrink and fit way better than the appropriate size. I cant say I like having to buy a size larger, but when you want to keep wearing this style of CK briefs, youve got to change with the times in more ways than one. The large (36-38) fits me like Id assume a size 35 in the previous generation would (if that were a size offered). They feel slightly larger than my 34 ones but definitely not a 36. And that difference continues to shrink as these briefs seemingly do with each wash and dry. Perhaps if you were definitively on the lower end of the range for a size they would fit okay. But if you are on the middle or upper end of a size (or have average or above assets in either the front or back, youll want to definitely consider sizing up). Side note: love the colors these come in now :)

Both the low-rise and mid-rise fit perfect and the cut is extremely comfortable, despite not being the most attractive choice (who cares...). The 100% cotton fabric is fantastic: thin, soft, strong, and they hold reasonably well in laundry. The colors are great, for those who care for that. Two issues: (1) the waistband tends to roll and deform, not a big deal if youre a thin dude, but could be annoying for guys with more curvy dad-bods... (2) they come with a small booklet of a tag (just snip it with scissors - problem solved).

Fast delivery, fits good

For the first time in many years Ive switched brands. These briefs are well made and comfortable

I ordered these in XL and they are SO small - more like S to fit teenagers and not adults. Be careful - they run so small. These are not mens sizes - should have youth on them.

My husband has worn these CK black briefs for years and the last ones are finally giving out so I looked for a long time to find these. I can’t even remember when I bought his last packages at Costco, but they stopped carrying this style several YEARS ago and I haven’t been able to find them. He’s been wearing the same ones, but the knit edges are beginning to come loose from the elastic bands so it was time to get serious about replacing them (even so, the elastic bands are still in good shape!) I was so happy to find these for hubby cuz he hates all the new boxer briefs that fit like Speedos. However, after just a few short months, the elastic is rippling in the back seam of the waistband, so it won’t be long until it starts fraying. This used to be such a quality product: they must be using a different supplier of elastic, cuz the quality is just not what it used to be. and these newer ones cut into his leg, so the pattern must cut differently too. Too bad… it used to be a great product. not so much now.

The tags seem weird in the age of tagless underwear. Amazon suggested that I go a size up and get XL instead of L based on customer reviews. Unless there is shrinkage noticeable after the first wash then L is the correct size as opposed to the Amazon suggestion that I go a size-up to XL.

Tags were annoying, cut them off and didnt have issues with left-over snaggy pieces of the tags but just annoying to buy from a company like CK and have to hassle with that crap. Seems like it should be pretty damn obvious to any underwear/clothing company that is run by human beings who have ever worn clothes, or robots that have been programmed to listen to the most basic customer feedback... to just lose the damn tags. In the end, once the changes are put in place - I would think that a tagless brief would mean: 1. Use of less material. 2. Less stitching/less complicated production process. 3. Would provide an idea for something to mention in a stupid commercial or print ad when the advertiser bros cant think of anything to say about underwear. Those days where after sitting in the conference room for 6 hours, the only thing those bros you pay 6-figures have to show for their time is a marker board that says Underwear Brainstorming at the top and these points listed below: - Shoot in black and white, as always. But with 2 white models, as always. In a windy bedroom, as always. - Be original, as always. - Highly attractive young adult muscular man. - Man wears product (Underwear). - Female appears. Highly attractive, unhealthily-thin, seems significantly younger than product-wearing-man. - Female displays Über-lust-filled eyes showcasing the enchanting, borderline-illegal, seductive spell the underwear casts on her. *list would end here* - but not today, thanks to your genius decision to boldly remove the part of your product that nobody wants, instead... (now they can add something stupid to the brainstorm board about the tags finally being gone - like No-Tags-Attached lunch meeting or no shirt, no shoes, no tags - or any number of mind-numbingly stupid ways of bragging that you stopped doing something you never should have done in the first place) 4. Increased customer satisfaction. I guess just focus on number 4, might be reason enough to get rid of the tags. Balls in your court, CK... no pun intended
