@duff1462 Typical for something that was made in Asia for international distribution without customized markings for different markets. In US sizes, I’m usually L or XL; in Chinese sizes, I’m a 3X or 4X. It can be a challenge.
Cotton DOES NOT WICK, it absorbs moisture. You’re probably thinking breathability, it has great breathability but is completely non-wicking, if you’re sweaty, cotton will hold on to moisture, bamboo won’t. There’s a reason why modern athletic outfits have little or no cotton in them.
Bamboo has great breathability and much superior wicking to cotton.
@macdaddy1@mrongey@OnionSoup I do like cotton sometimes, especially in winter or when wearing in bed (do you really want to ‘wick’ into your sheets). But yes the cotton absorbs, not wicks.
however I do like the bamboo/viscose of these and I prefer them over most of the polyester/spandex ones often sold as ‘tech’ fabrics that, yes, are wicking because they are very thin and don’t absorb at all.
Maybe I’ll get large and use the discomfort as weight loss motivation? Learn to love the pain!
This site is so much the same price for limited sizes anymore…
Product too small and return so far is a problem. Ask for order number which I could not find and long story short links for support and order number all revert you back to the start: “How can we help”

Bamboo doesn’t wick like cotton can. It’s like playing baseball in July in the rain.
@macdaddy1 I bought these last time and I feel like they wick better than many cotton briefs.
@macdaddy1 @mrongey old thread but seeing this because its been bumped…
