Which is why we\u2019ve taken it upon ourselves to gather a list of the best running underwear for men.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Over several months of testing, we put a range of options through the mill and marked them against a range of criteria including fit, support, comfort, moisture wicking and value.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What makes the best running underwear for men?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Before we dive into our list of the best running underwear for men, it\u2019s worth considering exactly what you need to be looking for.<\/p>\n<p>Comfort has to be key. We like to see soft fabrics, minimal (or flatlocked) seams and an uninhibited range of movement. Support is equally as important, but the level you need will depend on your personal preferences and the intensity or duration of your exercise.<\/p>\n<p>For high intensity or long sessions, we like to have a high level of support, but too much can feel uncomfortable.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, when covering the sort of distances many triathletes do, it\u2019s nice to see fabrics that wick moisture away effectively. This goes a long way in the comfort stakes and the best running underwear for men will feel almost dry to the touch after use.<\/p>\n<p>Fabric choice is likely to impact the above points greatly. Natural fabrics such as Merino wool are anti-bacterial and stay warm when wet, but aren\u2019t best known for their durability or ability to wick away moisture.<\/p>\n<p>Synthetic fabrics, meanwhile, can wick moisture away expertly, but tend to deliver less warmth per weight and don\u2019t have those handy anti-bacterial, anti-odour properties. Having said that, they often come with an anti-odour treatment.<\/p>\n<p>That all said, it\u2019s time to turn to the products themselves.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Best running underwear for men<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3><strong>Runderwear Men\u2019s Running Boxer Shorts<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul class=\"&quot;monetizer-in-text-link-list&quot;\"><li data-type=\"&quot;in-text&quot;\" class=\"&quot;monetizer-in-text-link&quot;\" data-config=\"'{&quot;nameKeywords&quot;:\" mens=\"\" running=\"\" boxers=\"\" data-text=\"&quot;&lt;b&gt;Buy\" now=\"\" from=\"\" and=\"\"> <\/li>\n<\/ul><script><![CDATA[ (function () { var s = document.createElement('script'); s.type = 'text\/javascript'; s.async = true; s.src = \"\/\/220triathlon.com\/pricecomparison\/widget\/intext\/app.bundle.js\"; s.onload = function () { new inText({ domain: \"220triathlon.com\/pricecomparison\", shopId: 809, geolocation: true, }); }; var x = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; x.parentNode.insertBefore(s, x); \/\/trim whitespace from li to flag empty items (twig seems to strip out closing if you remove the space.....

flatlocked, so we didn\u2019t experience any discomfort whatsoever.<\/p>\n<p>Impressively, they wicked moisture away with ease, while range of movement was entirely unhindered. The fit is close, but not restrictive which, combined with the brand\u2019s trademark BallPark Pouch, offers very good support.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re not familiar with the BallPark Pouch, it\u2019s essentially a hammock-shaped pocket that\u2019s designed to keep everything in place. It not only offers support, but also helps prevent skin-on-skin friction and chafing.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s still not quite as much support as the Runderwear or CXP models, but we found it plenty for providing ample comfort in longer or higher intensity sessions. There are also a range of designs available, meaning you can choose something that suits you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Verdict: Fantastic moisture management and top performance. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Score: 90%<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"&quot;monetizer__price-comparison-container&quot;\" data-position=\"&quot;adhoc&quot;\" hidden=\"\"> <h5 class=\"&quot;monetizer__price-comparison-title\" monetizer-title=\"\" style=\"&quot;background-color:\" color:=\"\">Latest deals<\/h5> <div id=\"&quot;monetizer__deals&quot;\" data-type=\"&quot;price-comparison&quot;\" data-config=\"'{&quot;shopId&quot;:&quot;809&quot;,&quot;market&quot;:&quot;gbp_en&quot;,&quot;template&quot;:&quot;default&quot;,&quot;searchKeywords&quot;:&quot;Saxx\" kinetic=\"\" hd=\"\" boxer=\"\" briefs=\"\" with=\"\" ballpark=\"\" pouch=\"\"\/> <div class=\"&quot;monetizer__price-comparison-explanatory-text\" body-copy-extra-small=\"\" editor-content=\"\"\/><\/div> <h3><strong>Montane Primino 140 Boxers<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul class=\"&quot;monetizer-in-text-link-list&quot;\"><li data-type=\"&quot;in-text&quot;\" class=\"&quot;monetizer-in-text-link&quot;\" data-config=\"'{&quot;nameKeywords&quot;:\" primino=\"\" boxers=\"\" data-text=\"&quot;&lt;b&gt;Buy\" now=\"\" from=\"\" and=\"\"> <\/li>\n<\/ul><script><![CDATA[ (function () { var s = document.createElement('script'); s.type = 'text\/javascript'; s.async = true; s.src = \"\/\/220triathlon.com\/pricecomparison\/widget\/intext\/app.bundle.js\"; s.onload = function () { new inText({ domain: \"220triathlon.com\/pricecomparison\", shopId: 809, geolocation: true, }); }; var x = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; x.parentNode.insertBefore(s, x); \/\/trim whitespace from li to flag empty items (twig seems to strip out closing if you remove the space.....

Montane<\/span><\/figcaption><span class=\"&quot;im-image-caption&quot;\"\/><\/div>\n<p>As the name suggests, Montane\u2019s Primino Boxers utilise a combination of Merino wool (50%), a PrimaLoft synthetic fibre (25%) and polyester (25%). The idea is that the material will achieve the best of both \u2013 the moisture wicking and durability associated with synthetic fibres and the warmth and anti-bacterial properties of natural fibres.<\/p>\n<p>In practice, it works pretty well. We found the moisture management to be an improvement on pure Merino options, but not quite as impressive as Saxx and Runderwear\u2019s submissions. The inclusion of Merino does help in the odour resistance department, though.<\/p>\n<p>The material felt nice against the skin and the low profile flatlocked seams ensured zero, but a short, hipster-style cut meant the legs did ride up a little, which sacrificed top-end comfort a little.<\/p>\n<p>We found the support on offer to be more than adequate, sitting somewhere between the looser Merino options and the closer-fitting Runderwear or CXP samples.<\/p>\n<div class=\"&quot;monetizer__price-comparison-container&quot;\" data-position=\"&quot;adhoc&quot;\" hidden=\"\"> <h5
