Men's slips: features and tips for choosing
Nowadays, representatives of the strong half of humanity strive to keep up with women in matters of fashion and choose stylish clothes. Underwear was no exception. At the same time, in the race for trends, health issues should not be neglected, since cowards, unfortunately, play an important role in the frightening statistics of infertility. Today we will talk about men's sleepsuits, their features, advantages and disadvantages.
Peculiarities
Slips are a model of men's underpants with a narrow elastic band, where the buttocks are completely closed and the legs are open in front - such underwear is comfortable to wear, so men usually like it.
Among the distinctive features of such panties are:
- slips fit the hips well;
- the panties are optimal for athletic men with a slim fit figure;
- the option is suitable for tight or thin trousers.
- can be produced in mini or even micro versions.
Despite the neat appearance and stylish design, only a small part of men wear slips. The fact is that even those models that fit in size often put a lot of pressure and lead to a violation of blood flow to the testicles.
Besides, most often, slips are sewn from synthetic fabric, which practically does not allow air to pass throughwow As a result, there is a "greenhouse effect", the genitals overheat to the temperature of the human body, and this has the most adverse effect on the activity of spermatozoa. As you know, their formation begins at a temperature of 34-35 degrees, and at higher values, the synthesis of seed cells stops, they lose their activity and mobility - all this minimizes the likelihood of fertilization.
In addition, slips very often rub the upper thigh, sometimes almost to the point of numbness, therefore, such products are recommended for men with delicate skin only for short-term wear.
Who are they suitable for?
Men's briefs-slips are optimal for men who:
- do not like underwear, in which there is excess fabric gathering in folds;
- need reliable fixation of the genitals (for example, during active sports);
- want to visually increase their manhood.
Slips will be appropriate in the following situations:
- for everyday wear under tight trousers;
- under any festive clothes, when a man does not want his pants to bulge from excess material;
- for romantic dates.
Thanks to the high cut in the front, these briefs can be worn under any trousers.
Differences from briefs
Slips are very often confused with briefs and even swimming trunks. The last two varieties also provide a tight fit and secure fixation of the genitals, covering the entire intimate area and buttocks with tissue.
Like slips, briefs compete successfully with boxers because they can be worn under tight-fitting clothing. There are several types of briefs, each of which has its own merits:
- models with a high waist - such products visually make the waist a little narrower;
- models with a low rise - optimal for sports, exercise and as a daily wear.
Slips, in fact, repeat the basic parameters of the briefs with only one difference - they do not have a codpiece.
Materials (edit)
The best materials for sewing slips are:
- natural cotton - it is a hypoallergenic material that does not irritate the skin;
- modal - characterized by increased hygroscopicity;
- synthetic nylon with added elastane - blended fiber, which is characterized by exceptional durability and wear in comparison with all other materials;
- stretching viscose - panties made of it are especially comfortable after a sharp change in body weight (weight loss or weight gain).
The highest quality and most reliable material is cotton... This natural fabric has important characteristics - it is able to absorb moisture and also allows the skin to breathe. Cotton fabric can have different density and structure. For sewing tight slips, cotton is usually diluted with artificial fibers (elastane or polyester).
If the content of artificial fibers does not exceed 5%, then this does not in any way impair the parameters of hygroscopicity and air permeability of the underwear, but at the same time makes them more comfortable to wear and durable.
Modal - a relatively "young" fabric of natural origin. Like cotton, it absorbs water well. The material has quite impressive advantages - it is distinguished by resistance to stretching and shrinkage. This fabric retains its shape and original shade, smoothness and softness for a long time. Modal is often combined with bamboo fibers.
Some seamless slips are made made of polyamide or nylon. The fabric stretches well, while the seams under the clothes are almost invisible. Lingerie made of this material is optimal for wearing under sportswear.
It is not so easy to say which material is preferable for men's slips - all the fabrics described above are suitable for men's underwear. The most important thing is that all of them are made in full compliance with accepted quality standards, namely, without the use of dyes and on the basis of safe technologies.
We draw your attention to the fact that nowadays there are many fakes on the market, wearing such products is fraught with the most unpleasant consequences for men's health. It is best to buy underwear in brand stores with a good reputation or on the manufacturer's website. In any case, it is always better to choose the original model of a budget company than to buy a fake for an expensive brand.
Do not rush to buy a set of slips right away - test one product and walk around in it for a while. If you feel comfortable and dry, then this material suits you, and you can safely buy several more models.
How to choose?
To begin with, we note that therapists, urologists and sex therapists are unanimous in the opinion that one should not attach too much importance to the shape of the panties - the most important thing is that they are comfortable in them and at the same time the rules of personal hygiene are not violated.
Slips should be selected in such a way that they do not dig into the body, do not press on the genital area, do not cut the skin. It should be comfortable to sit in shorts, as well as walk and stand - if the model is selected in such a way that the underwear does not make itself felt, therefore, the product is chosen correctly.
Nevertheless, it is worth listening to some of the recommendations of doctors. Following these tips will help you choose your slips so that the product does not create problems with the functionality of the male reproductive system.
- Before buying, it is advisable to make a fitting - the appearance can sometimes be deceiving, and the underwear may turn out to be inappropriate. Of course, no one will allow you to measure your panties right in the store. But you can always buy one model "for trial", and if it is comfortable to wear, the rest can be purchased according to its parameters and sizes.
- Briefs should be purchased strictly by size. They should not dangle freely or, on the contrary, be too tight. In addition, it is necessary to distinguish between clothing for sleep and for wakefulness. To buy lingerie for the night, it is better to opt for other, more free models.
- From the point of view of personal hygiene, linen should be changed as often as possible, so you should also buy it at least 3 times a year. If the slips have begun to lose their shape, they must be immediately changed to new ones.
- Consider the material your underpants are made of. It is better to give preference to natural fabrics with the addition of a small percentage of elastane. Synthetic fabrics create excessive heating, overheating and cause excessive sweating - in this environment, ideal conditions are created for the reproduction of pathogenic microflora.
- The quality of tailoring is no less relevant. Thus, a finished edge and correct seams will prevent chafing and contribute to maximum wearing comfort.
As for the shades, there are no restrictions. Depending on the personality traits and personal preferences, slip for men can have either laconic colors (black, white, gray, blue), or they can be performed in red, yellow, purple, blue or green.
