Men's Briefs

Briefs, our well-loved undergarments without legs, stand out for their unique design. Unlike other underpants, briefs lack material that extends over the thighs, which means they don't ride up and are an ideal choice to wear under snug-fitting trousers. In addition to this, they offer maximum comfort and support.


At Björn Borg, you will find briefs for both everyday wear and training.

Briefs with steady support and maximum freedom of movement

Men’s briefs are an obvious choice when you want underwear that feels light, sits close to the body and gives strong support without extra fabric around the legs.

The short and open cut makes briefs look and feel more minimal than longer underwear styles.

At Björn Borg, you will find men’s briefs in sporty and modern designs. Choose from classic cotton briefs in black, white and seasonal colors and patterns, or technical briefs in performance materials for training.

Whether you are looking for comfortable briefs for everyday wear or training briefs for intense sessions, you get a secure fit, soft feel and iconic Björn Borg style.

Cotton briefs for everyday wear

For everyday use, cotton briefs are a comfortable choice. The soft material feels smooth against the skin, while elastane adds stretch and helps the underwear follow your body’s movements.

The stable waistband stays in place without digging in, and the close fit makes briefs easy to wear under jeans, tailored trousers and track pants.

Briefs are a great choice if you want underwear with less fabric, while still getting good support and a secure fit.

The open cut around the thighs helps prevent the fabric from rolling up or bunching, giving you a comfortable feel.

Men's briefs for training

Briefs are great underwear for training. The short cut frees up the thighs and gives maximum freedom of movement, making briefs perfect for running, gym workouts, cardio and other sessions where you move a lot.

Because there are no longer legs that can ride up or crease, training briefs stay firmly in place even during high intensity exercises.

For training, synthetic materials are the best option, and our sports briefs are made from breathable mesh fabric in recycled polyester and elastane.

The material wicks away moisture, dries quickly and provides flexible stretch that moves with your body. This makes them especially good under tights and gym shorts.

The history of briefs

Briefs were already launched in the 30s by Coopers, Inc. in Chicago and were then called "the Jockey". The name comes from the fact that they have supportive properties similar to those of a "jockstrap". It quickly became a great success.

They were often used by athletes and are still popular underpants to train in. The cut gives you maximum mobility, making briefs perfect for cardio and other active training where you move a lot.
