    I don't get too fussy.

    I resent spending my own money on this stuff and so suggest them to the family as ideas for Christmas or birthday presents.

    I have rather a lot of next boxer shorts now though.

    I never pay cash for pants, every year I upgrade my drawers (I've done it again ) with the Next and M&S vouchers I get for Christmas.

    I work on the principle that they are not needed.

    My wife can then choose to buy me any that she likes and they will get used accordingly, if she doesn't buy any.....

    Try cracking one off less often.

    With

    Despite their sizing issues I find M&S and Next pants seem to last longer than any of the carppy so-called 'designer' labels you find at TK Maxx, saying that I can never bring myself to spend £15 on a single pair of CK’s so I can’t comment on them.

    My top tip: Go for the stretchy trunk style for maximum support but avoid white ones.

    M&S boxers for me.

    Think Paxman is right to an extent - M&S seem to have changed their cut a bit.
