While these are white, they are far from tighty whiteys. I don’t do tighty whiteys. I can’t. I grew up wearing them and I haven’t really worn them since I switched in high school. There’s just something about them that turn me off and a sure way to make me limp is to have a pair of tighty whiteys on. These are Almost Naked sports briefs…and with the detailing and piping, they are anything but basic and boring.
