Slix – Not Your Father’s Underwear {Review & Giveaway}

Slix Logo

My husband has a hard time finding underwear that fits him properly. He loves boxer briefs but cotton stretches and pretty soon he starts rolling them at the top to keep them up or they hang lower with that droopy, saggy look. (That look is so not sexy.) Other styles ride too high up on the waist or are too long in leg. He didn’t even hesitate when I showed him the new Slix line and I asked if he’d like to try them out.

Slix lamp

Slix was born just last November from founder Greg Hall who was frustrated by the underwear available on the market for men. While athletic stores had products with performance materials, they didn’t meet the needs of the everyday professional as well.

Hall wanted underwear that would not only be functionally superior to cotton, but also versatile enough to wear to the office, under jeans or shorts, working out, or under his board shorts at the beach. Slix would do for professional men what garment manufacturers had done for athletes a decade before – provide them with revolutionary products that fundamentally enhanced their comfort and performance.

My husband received a pair of medium Slix Closer boxer briefs in black. Also available in white, this brief is made of 81% Cationic Polyester 19% Elastane which gives the following benefits:

  • Maximizes Comfort
  • Breathes, wicks and dries quickly
  • Eliminates chafing and need for powders/gels
  • Maintains shape and moves with you
  • No more adjusting, tucking or shifting
  • Offers versatility – wear: Under slacks, jeans, shorts or swimwear
  • Perfect 7″ inseam
  • Vented and breathable pouch
  • Flatlock seams

Slix BlackMy husband was actually excited to try his Closer boxer briefs on and they did not disappoint. The length of both the leg and where they rest on the hip thrilled my husband. He said they hit in all the rights spots. He also loved the feeling of support without any constricting any parts. (You know, those really important parts.) And while I certainly can’t take pictures of him to share with you all, I actually wish I could. Because the Slix Closer boxer briefs are certainly going to help my husband “close” the deal. I don’t know how to explain it but they have him looking smoking hot. Any product that leaves me wanting to jump my husband is a great, great, great product. My husband’s final word? Perhaps I should say he needed a pair in white too, just to be sure.

Slix influencer shirtSlix also carries other undergarments like the Influencer undershirt which features a tapered fit and gives a snug look. Tagless, this shirt breathes, wicks and never comes untucked. I’m eyeballing that one as we speak, imagining my husband’s runner’s bod in that. Hmm…..nice.

And if high fashion socks that don’t fall down is what excites you, check out their selection of Slix Movers socks.

    I’d love to win this for my husband. I’m tired of seeing him walking around naked all the time. At least these will feel so good he’ll want to keep them on and I won’t have to worry about people seeing him naked through the windows.

    I’d like to win because they ARE cool looking. I’d give them to my teenage son, not because “I” want him to look smoking hot, but because “HE” wants to look hot. LOL Weird thing for a mommy to say.
