Heaven help me for asking, but M&S just don't do it for me anymore. Looking for trunks, microfibre type if possible. Not mouth-watering prices (but if they look mouth-watering, that's fine 🙂 )

If M&S is too trendy for you now then I'm afraid it's time for Greenwoods.

It's a shop for old men's pants you know the sort, the ones that don't like M&S anymore. I don't think the sell Calvin Klein so I've never been in.

TKMaxx - They do some really nice Toyota Underground pants in some good (different colours like pink, blue, baby blue etc). Think they are 7.99 for 3.

100% cotton and look nice.

In my neck of the woods they're a janitorial supplier.

Seeing as I don't work in high finance, I only wear second hand these days.

^ 'bamboo' is just viscose/rayon with a higher price tag and a swing ticket made of recycled cardboard. If 'bamboo' is what you fancy then viscose pants can be bought really, really cheaply - @ £2 a pop

Are you spying on me?*

I am literally just buying some now. For the record, I go to [url= http://www.next.co.uk/shop/gender-men-productaffiliation-underwear/category-afront-category-hipster#2_678 ]Next[/url], as M&S have been rubbish a while now.

sort of like hot desking? - at least they're still warm

"its obvious who wears the pants in your household"
"why?"
"because you've got a rota pinned to the fridge"

for a serious answer - 4 packs of pringle boxers from Costco, about the same price as 3 packs from TK MAxx

This +1. Get the Primark ones, job done. A superb bit of undercarriage upholstery and well able to expand according to demand...

The Pringle socks are highly recommended as well..

Uniqlo - boxers are cut well (for the bigger boy) and they also do the wicky tighter versions if that is your thing (called AIR or something like that.) cross between a Nike pro and a normal boxer which is nice in hot countries

The follow-on jokes are too obvious DD!!!

Good luck with the search. But can rec UNIQLO on price and comfort.

I only ever wear the micro-fresh M&S socks. Never ever had stinking feet when riding or in trainers with these socks. Well worth buying if you like keeping your mrs's happy.

I like Jeep pants/briefs get them from TK Maxx, there's a skid mark joke in there somewhere but my mind's been wiped clean... 😕

Well, thanks for the tip, I've taken a punt on half a dozen from there and ordered a pair of jeans while I was at it. If I don't like them, I'll be sending a used pair to you in a sealed bag. 😀

This is the kind of nonsense folk with Creative Zen MP3 players used to say about iPods.
