Wearing underwear that is too tight can cause impaired blood flow, which can lead to impotence and infertility in the future. Maria Peterson, fashion stylist, former representative of the French Federation of Pret-a-Porter in Russia and co-founder of the online platform for fashion business professionals fashionsfera.ru, told socialbites.ca.
According to him, the first thing you need to pay attention to is the right size: the panties should not press or cut the skin, but should also provide adequate support.
“Continuous wearing of very tight underwear for a long time leads to impaired blood flow and can even lead to impotence and infertility in the future. The presence of a code piece (a special pocket for the genitals) is also important in the design of men’s underwear. Make sure that in this place all the seams are straight and the fabric is as soft as possible, ”explained the expert.
According to Peterson, the material from which the shorts are made is an equally important criterion: they should be breathable, pleasant to the touch and as natural as possible.
“The share of synthetic fibers should not exceed 10 percent. Otherwise, overheating will occur and this will have extremely negative consequences for men’s health,” he warned.
As for the choice between boxers and shorts, the specialist advised to be guided by personal preferences.
“The panties, sometimes called slips or panties, provide the best support and freedom of movement, so they are the best option for sports, but when worn frequently, this model can sometimes rub on the thigh area and cause irritation,” he said.
According to him, boxers or shorts are more versatile.
“These models are very comfortable and are completely invisible under clothes, unlike family shorts, for example. They are also suitable for men of absolutely any figure and physique, ”he summed up.
