growing up my dad always wore tighty whities (size 40). I wore tighty whities too and was always amazed at how big his underwear was. I would hold them up and couldn’t believe the size of them. I now have surpassed his size and wear size 44-46 briefs. I have a fair amount of plain old tighty whites but as more options become available in big and tall sizes I have added different colors and styles to my collection. I still do find a good ole pair of hanes or FTL white briefs to be very comfortable for my large waistline and thick thighs
