These boxers are comfortable. Not silky soft, but comfortable nonetheless. They look nice, which isn't really a factor, but i note it anyway. One thing that i do find interesting is that, while the waist sizes are pretty accurate, the boxers themselves are on the largish size. You'll look at them after buying and wonder if they made them for a person twice your size, lol. However, they do fit great. It's just that the legs such as they are, are very loose and baggy. This does help keep them from riding up, and so perhaps that was the reasoning behind it. Either way, they fit great and work out well. A good purchase in my opinion.
