Construction theme brief - briefs discontinued by Fantasy Lingerie - review by leatherlover

Having been buying plenty of lingerie for my wife recently, I have also been purchasing some briefs for myself now that Eden is carrying more items for men. This is one of two items that I recently purchased, and I quickly grabbed it up when it became available. When I showed my wife what I purchased, she quickly opened up both packages to see what they looked like. The first one she wanted me to try on were these.

Design
These are mostly orange briefs, with yellow and black stripes down each side that are 4 inches wide. There is a small square affixed above the right thigh that says "Hard at Work", and is almost 2 inches square. Also around the front of the waist is a black band that is 1 inch wide and provides some of the tightness for the item. The rest of the shorts is just plain orange. They are made out of 90% polyester and 10% spandex.

Sizing
They are one size fits most, and they were tight around my waist, and a little loose in my thighs and ass. The looseness was totally fine, and would have been unnoticed if it wasn't for the fact that the waist was pretty snug on me. I was able to get them up, but the elastic/spandex in the band is definitely tight against my body. I wear 34 in pants usually, and normally wear large underwear.

My wife did enjoy how I looked in them, and I enjoyed them as well. The legs road up a little after bending over, so wearing them all day long under other clothes might not be the most comfortable thing in the world. Laid out flat, the shorts measure 13 inches wide at the top, 9 inches long down the sides, 19 inches from top center to the bottom of the crotch, and the leg openings are 9 inches wide.

Packaging
The package was a small cardboard box, that has a front and rear photo of the shorts on. They are made in China. Cleaning instructions are included on the box, along with a description of the shorts. It says to hand wash separately in cold water and drip dry.

Cleaning
Since these are probably not as well made as normal underwear, I will place these in our wash machine on the "hand wash" cycle, then hang them up to dry on a drying rack. I'm sure that exposure to the normal wash cycle will decrease their life, but I don't plan on wearing them on a weekly basis where this would be an issue.

I pulled these out the other day and wore them for most of the day. I noticed initially that they felt tight around my waist, but after I put jeans on and walked around for a while, I didn't notice the tightness anymore. They also slightly rode up around my crotch, but didn't cause a bad wedgie, just a small slight discomfort. Overall, I am still pleased with them, and could wear them for most of a day again.
