The Ultimate Underwear Guide: Which Duluth Fabric Is Right for You?
By Kaaden Dull
Underwear is no joke. OK, sometimes it is – but when it comes to covering your assets, it’s time to get serious. Skivvies, panties, boxers, briefs, knickers, undies – whatever you call ’em, they should be right for what’s going on down there.
Comparing Duluth Underwear Technologies
Here at Duluth, we pride ourselves in creating top-tier men’s underwear and women’s underwear built for anybody and everybody. Whether you like something that feels like it’s barely there, something that keeps cool or something that’s Dang Soft – we’ve got it. Don’t undersell your unders. You deserve the best.
Buck Naked Underwear: The Original "No-Feel" Performance
No pinch. No stink. No sweat. That’s Buck Naked. If you’d really rather go commando, this is the next best thing. This fabric wicks sweat to keep you dry and funk-free. Stretch how no one’s stretched before and make it look easy with flexible fabric and a bulk-free waistband. Keep everything comfy and protected without feeling a thing.
Men’s Buck Naked Boxer Briefs
There’s a classic 7" inseam or 5” inseam – think ’70s basketball shorts. The same style and comfort with different lengths. How brief do you want your briefs?
Women’s Buck Naked Anti-Chafe Shorts
There’s no need for your thighs to be burning from your own skivvies. These boxer-brief-style undies have an extra-long inseam that keeps those high-friction areas smooth and comfy. And our Friction Fixer wide gusset gets that inseam out from between your thighs. Great for going under dresses and skirts.
Women’s Buck Naked Briefs
What could be better than bare? These briefs have a Stay-Put Fit that stays comfortable and in place when you’re on the move – no bunching or pinching here. Covered seams eliminate chafing and there’s a double-layer crotch for your comfort.
Armachillo: The Science of Keeping Your Cool
Underwear doesn’t have to be a heat trap. Our Armachillo fabric uses our Made-in-the-Jade treatment – real microscopic particles of jade are woven into the fabric to help beat the heat. Nylon and spandex work side by side to wick away sweat and keep you fresh.
Men’s Armachillo Bullpen Boxer Briefs and Men’s Armachillo Cooling Boxers
For those looking for some extra “sac-urity” in their cooled-down paradise, these two styles are for you. The Bullpen Boxer Briefs have our tried-and-true Stay-Put Pouch to keep the boys in place and prevent chafing. The Cooling Boxers have a roomier fit through your seat and thighs so they won’t bunch or cling when you’re climbing, crouching or reaching. So don't steam your oysters – put ’em on ice with Armachillo cooling underwear for men!
Women’s Armachillo Cooling Briefs and Women’s Armachillo Seamless Bra
These briefs are for those who take “cool and fresh” to the max. The jade treatment keeps the heat down while our nylon-spandex fabric pulls away moisture and nixes chafing – sounding better than your bunched, sweaty cotton undies, right? And let’s face it – if it’s hot down low, it’s hot up top. The Armachillo Seamless Bra fights back dreaded “swoob” and brings in comfort with wireless support.
