Ideal for guys who get physical at work and at play, Duluth Trading Performance Underwear, comprised of 93 percent nylon and seven percent spandex, protect against chafing, itching and feeling clammy. To create these extreme undies, Duluth Trading tested fabric used by triathletes, rock climbers and other active types and considered tradesmen’s needs for comfort, freedom of movement and moisture wicking.

According to Stephanie Pugliese, vice president of product development for Duluth Trading Company, the performance underwear delivers powerful, undeniable advantages for the working man. “Whether our customers are climbing a scaffold or Mt. Shasta, our performance underwear features antimicrobial fabric to help fight mildew, bacteria and job-site stink. And, a sturdier 1 1/2 inch elastic waistband is brushed inside for chafe-free comfort,” says Pugliese. Duluth Trading Performance Underwear have been described as the “best damn underwear I ever put on!” by Randy, a contractor on Duluth’s Trades Panel, a group of gritty guys who provide on-the-job insights and needs, plus workwear testing. Other Trades Panel comments included: “Like the waistband size, feel and fit. Support – well, let’s just say everything stayed where it belonged!”
“Easy care! Throw it in, wash it, dry the heck out of it, and throw’em on.”
“Very comfortable boxers. I definitely prefer these over the cotton/poly blend for warmer weather applications. In the colder months, I can see them being a great addition under various layers.”

Available in sizes medium to 3XL, the Performance Boxer, Performance Boxer Brief – which offers snug-fitting boxer legs for extra support for climbing, crouching, and reaching – and Performance Brief styles breathe for comfort and wick away sweat 10 times better than cotton underwear.
