Customers praised the soft, durable cotton fabric and comfort, ideal for sensitive skin and allergies. "Very comfortable" and "great quality" were frequent comments. The drawstring design offers adjustable fit. However, sizing runs significantly large, particularly in the legs, with some reporting "completely baggy and unwearable" fit. Some concerns about drawstring durability.

5 star item, but…

…my $120 order was delivered in the wrong place and was thus stolen. According to their website, Cottonique is not liable. Frustrating. Will be ordering again to a friends address because I own these already and quite like them, but still.

Sizing is atrocious

The good: I love this company's ethics and what they're doing.

The bad: I'm a normal/fit man, size 32 waist. My underwear has always been medium, regardless of the manufacturer, so I ordered these in the smallest size, labelled S/M. They arrived, and are HUGE; think XL or XXL. Completely baggy and unwearable, like a sort of sick joke at adult diapers. (For reference, laying the garment flat on a table the waist measured 19-1/4" across.)

Customer support was responsive, but admitted that the sizing was within the correct tolerances for their smallest size. Since this is an undergarment there are no returns (which I can understand), leaving me with no alternative options other than wasted money. I wish they could figure out the sizing issues they have, because they are really the best player in this market currently.

Wonderful boxers

I've been trying these out for a month now. I bought them to replace my synthetic blend boxer briefs that have worn out. Wow, they are so comfortable. They are surprisingly breathable, and the L/XL fit is great (I'm 6 ft, 230lbs). They are slightly warmer compared to a bamboo blend, but no issues of stuffiness or trapping heat. I was concerned about the drawstring getting in the way of my belt for dress pants (work), and it never bothered me. No issues exercising in them either. I'm so happy with these that I came back and bought more. Love the colors, too!

The Shorts

Finally relief. Why no one produces draw string only is very upsetting when you cant toelrate elastane products. very sad. thanks cottonique. my food wouldnt digest because latex alergy and underwear wasit bands on elastane udnerwear causing my guts to stop their normal muscular function. lots of throat swelling too. Cottonique is saving my livlihood by producing gentle toxin free clothing for people like me. i wish a bit less expensive. but its worth it . these fit quite true to size. theyre warm and very soft.

I was disappointed in the new version of the men’s under shorts I liked the horizontal opening on the older one I don’t like the button. You had a good product and replaced it. you even combined the sizes.Its cheesy and a disappointment .

Expensive but worth it if you don’t like your gut getting compressed by an elastic band all day. The smallest size is pretty big but it eventually shrinks down to a smaller size.

Underwears are good, the size of the waist of sweatpants is perfect, the legs of the pants are a little bit long but I can manage to wear them for now.

Very comfortable!

Really like these! I go back and forth between preferring drawstring underwear vs. elasticized. The cotton is very soft & was pleasantly surprised the drawstring is thick and robust vs others I've seen. One thing I'd like to see is a slightly heavier/thicker cotton fabric.

Hi JR,

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re thrilled to hear that you love the softness of the cotton and the quality of the drawstring.
We truly appreciate your input. Thanks again for choosing our product, and we hope you continue to enjoy it!

Very good. Soft. Not too big as to be unwieldy like some other brands. I am roughly 33”-34” hip and I wear the S/M underwear. I very much wish they had more rise, about 1”, to give my crotch more space. The rise is very low on my hips and I prefer to wear high rise pants, so there is some discord there.

Fantastic

VERY comfortable underwear, no doubt. Maybe the most comfortable 100% cotton underwear I’ve ever worn. I really like the drawstring feature because i don’t like wearing garments that are tight against my waist. I really liked the price too, more affordable than NADS. I would recommend these garments to anyone who wants to avoid toxic chemicals and plastic in their clothing and to anyone who wants a very comfortable pair of boxers or briefs.

Repeat customer.

I ordered 10 pairs 7 years ago. They held up all this time and some pairs show no wear at all. They were mistreated in heavy and hot wash cycles and over drying… Not sure how many times the only issue was the button fell off and had to sew it on again. The cotton is so nice and durable, could have maybe got a few more years having been gentle washing them. But it worked out as I had ordered the 40" waist before, but now I ordered the small and am cinching down the string. The new boxers are made with even more quality and I like the structural improvements in the design. God Bless you all. Happy and comfortable customer again!

Elastic sensitivity

Cotton shorts nice, bow a bit large and bulky, but necessary, I suppose. Kind of expensive, and under shorts a bit fragile, get beat up and holey in the washer.

Happy enough

I got these for my husband so he can wear less plastic. He said they are a bit big. He is a men's medium pretty much everywhere. He still wears them. Might want to look into the sizing though.

They are very comfortable. And appear to be a good quality product.
I will definitely buy more. Would like to see more colors.
