What do you wear under boardshorts?

Question

I've heard that some people wear boxers or even a bathing suit underneath. Why don't boardshorts have that mesh lining like bathing suits? So you wear a different combination when swimming or just hanging around...?

Answer 1

Most of the people wear boxers under the board shorts around here. (Long Island, New York)

Answer 2

simply NOTHING..

Briefs and boxers get in ur way, whether it's for casual or swimming. Anyway, if you're feeling weird, it's better to have a brief on.

Answer 3

i wear nothing.

i dont like undies or boxers.

Just the pants, unless they have a zipper then yeah a pair of boxer briefs

Answer 4

I wear nothing and buy the right size of boardshorts knowing this.  Because I buy boardshorts to fit, they don't droop down and show off the goods.  Also, like a previous poster said, boxers just get heavy when they get wet and when I'm surfing they tend to keep riding up.  The only bad times are if I don't close the front flap fully and some of that velcro is exposed in the front.  That doesn't feel good if you know what I mean.

Answer 5

When in water, I don't wear anything under because then it just gets soaked and really heavy..

But when hanging around, I wear boxers because if it rides down, I wouldn't want anyone to see anything they wouldn't like.
