2(x)ist is one of the first companies I remember buying when I first started buying my own undies. They were founded in 1991 and I think I have been with them from the beginning. I must preface by saying I thought I did these reviews a weeks back but I noticed I couldn’t find them nor were they posted!
The Sport line is one that came out in the last few months. It is also, the briefs are one of the few pairs I have just bought. Having an underwear blog I rarely have to buy underwear, but I loved the No Show Brief so much and had to get apair. I really wanted the jock but they were out of them in my size. The joys of shopping a major department store, but luckily 2(x)st send me these!
The pair is a really well made. One thing that stands out are the colors. I received the Green/Black combo. The first thing I really noticed about the line is the waistband with the latex imprint of the 2(x)ist name. Great waistbands always catch my eye.
The pair is made out of 92% cotton and 8% spandex. Which made it fit very well and conform to my body. The leg straps were my only real issue. I wished they stretched a little more. There were no major issues wearing the pair in a normal day. As with most 2(x)ist underwear, the construction top notch and well sewn. The pair really lived up to my expectations. I am not sure you would wear them for active sports but it would be a great pair for running around town or going to the gym.
Sizing is rarely an issue with 2(x)ist the size they sent was correct and fit well. They have traditional American sizes.
Pros:
- Color was my favorite
- Waistband stood out
- Comfortable pouch
Cons:
- Wish the leg straps gave a little more
