    Pants

    (For Clippy)

    What, in your opinion, is the best brand for underwear in terms of quality and fit?

    Gents - no graphic descriptions please.
    Ladies - a description or disclosure of size and colour is optional but encouraged.

    Cheeky fooker

    M&S boxers for me.

    Think Paxman is right to an extent - M&S seem to have changed their cut a bit.

    As for socks, I thought all IT bods wore sandals without socks.

      With

      Despite their sizing issues I find M&S and Next pants seem to last longer than any of the carppy so-called 'designer' labels you find at TK Maxx, saying that I can never bring myself to spend £15 on a single pair of CK’s so I can’t comment on them.

      My top tip: Go for the stretchy trunk style for maximum support but avoid white ones.

      Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

        Gap trunk boxers are better - a nice fit, sort of elasticated and they don't 'gather' at the waist or rise up the thigh. Bit pricey compared to M&S - and I'd never spend that much on the CKs - I used to buy them, but they fall apart too easily - the elastic just can't handle rough treatment.

            I work on the principle that they are not needed.

            My wife can then choose to buy me any that she likes and they will get used accordingly, if she doesn't buy any.....

              I never pay cash for pants, every year I upgrade my drawers (I've done it again ) with the Next and M&S vouchers I get for Christmas.
