Life Changing Underwear

For 45 years I have worn cotton briefs.

Cotton is not the right material to wear while sweating.  I've run marathons wearing cotton underwear. The inability of the cotton to eliminate sweat results in chafing and discomfort at a high level.  Last January, I found that the moisture generated while biking near zero degrees quickly turned very cold. Sweat turns to ice pretty darn quickly. Cotton underwear were the biggest issue I had while riding last winter.  The answer came this summer when I found Adidas synthetic boxer briefs while training for a half-marathon.

This synthetic material wicks away all moisture eliminating an unwanted cooling while riding. Now my entire wardrobe is synthetic.  I should have been smart enough to figure this out last year.
