I bought these for my bf on a whim one day after hearing about the anti chaffing aspect of them from a friend and constantly hearing his complaints about his own chaffing probs in boxers (insert eye roll) and now he refuses to wear any other boxers. I have bought him 5 pairs and counting and buy him a new pair for every gift buying occasion, and he has now hooked all of his friends, my dad and my brother on them. Needless to say they're worth a try.
