I've been trying nearly every brand of briefs I can over the past couple of years, after realizing the old school designs just didn't work well for me. I got so tired of the normal briefs feeling restricting and uncomfortable, I first switched to loose woven boxers (which I do like), and even going commando. But I also wanted some support and form. With most of the newer pouch briefs, you get this to one degree or another, and that's good. But TBo is the first brand that provides a really good combination of support and freedom. I read one writer say it well, they contain, but they do not constrict. Equally, they do not minimize that which most of us want to maximize, to put it delicately. Sometimes, a brief with a pouch will be good either at support/containment, or at freedom/enhancement, but not both. Somehow, the design and material in TBo briefs do both, at least the way I want them to. I'm very impressed.
