Underwear question for men

What is good for circuit training/cardio/kickboxing cardio? I really need some good underwear that isn't gonna cause schafing when hiking/running or any other cardio. I am getting pretty done with this. I am just ignorant on this!

I like Under Armour boxer briefs/jocks (original). They're about $20 at D-i-c-k's or Sports Authority.
I also prefer the 6" or 9" leg inseam. Never tried the 3 ... they just seem a bit too brief for my taste.
There are higher priced ones and ones made of mesh, but they are lemons IMHO>
These are them.

I haven't worn underwear since I was 10. Might give those mentioned above a try, just to see if I've been missing anything.0

I'm not a man, but my husband also prefers those same one's from underarmor. The longer ones especially for running.0

Thank you!0

Any good fitting boxer-brief should work. Highly recommend non-cotton like the UnderArmor or Nike Fit. Ex Officio makes some really comfortable boxer briefs if you can find a place near you that sells them.0

Personally I like Ex Officio Give N Go's. They're made for hikers, but I like to jog/exercise in them too. Kinda pricey at $15+ each. I have some other brands of similar mesh shorts but don't quite like them as much as ExO's.

For running, I just use the running shorts with a built in liner. No need for underwear, that is what the liner is for. Make sure they are snug to reduce bounce and chaffing.0
