With the tempestuous months hurtling towards us, attention – sartorially speaking, anyway – will soon turn to thick cardigans, padded coats and Goodyear-welted footwear. This, however, doesn’t mean you should neglect investing in the basics of your wardrobe – the foundation pieces around which the rest of your ensemble convenes. And if we’re talking specifics, a reliable set of underwear can help form the backbone of your daily wears. It is, after all, the first thing you put on in the morning, and, as we once stated, ‘a decent pair, like any good hotel safe, keeps all the important stuff locked in and secure.’

A label we’ve recently turned to is SilkCut Underwear, a brand founded more than a decade ago and whose mission started ‘with a vision of revolutionising men’s underwear with unparalleled comfort and innovation – a pair of underwear every man deserves.’
Here, we analyse the particular details that help delineate this venture from the rest…
As with any respectable menswear staple, SilkCut Underwear is imbued with that coveted sensibility of balancing evergreen style with pure comfort – and given where it sits on the body, this item, especially, has to make its wearer feel at ease and, therefore, confident when heading out into the day.
As such, premium materials are used for each creation, drawing upon the label’s innovative, exclusively made fabrics that are produced with an eco-friendly slant. The SilkCut Seamless Pouch Trunk Underwear, for example, comprises 94 per cent Micro Modal® and 6 per cent elastane.
The result is a lightweight, contouring fit – so, unlike traditional boxer shorts, which can have a baggy feel and often not fit neatly under trousers, these options elegantly grace the body and keep everything in check. Movement is supported and there is no ride-up. A soft-stretch waistband – which has flexibility, minimises irritation, prevents bunching, and resists rolling – helps emphasise the seamless feel.
Not only lightweight, the underwear is also engineered with several other properties, a great stretch and being hypoallergenic among them.
The construction also ensures maximum airflow, making the underwear breathable and enhancing its moisture-wicking ability, keeping the wearer cool and composed throughout the day.
Even with its featherweight quality, the underwear is also hardy, as it’s resistant to shrinking and fading, and stands up to wear and tear.
Another feature that defines SilkCut Underwear is its fuss-free, pared-down appearance – solid, neutral colours are preferred over expressive patterns and loud motifs, and branding is discreet.
This timeless, minimalist look, paired with the notion of singular comfort, ultimately dials up the everyday appeal.
