Jockey Men's Underwear Men's Elance Poco Brief - 2 Pack

I was very disappointed to discover Jockey discontinued the Elance Poco mid briefs at the retail level. I've been buying this style since the early '80s when baseball player Jim Palmer was on the package. Was told by the retailer that Jockey's "Stay New" #8492 are the model that replaced the Elance Poco style. They fit okay, but I felt a little shrink wrapped in them. They are 95% cotton/5% spandex. The deal breaker was the dense stitching around the base of the waistband- it dug into my waist & was really apparent when wearing jeans. So happy to find out that Jockey resurrected the Elance Poco style & that they are available online. I've read comments about the fabric being thin, fitting small, causing itching & so on. I found they are the same for fit & comfort as they were before being discontinued. A smooth waistband & breathable 100% cotton, which I prefer. From the '80s to present, they always shrunk a little after washing, but fit comfortable. As for fabric, it is a little thinner compared to when they were made in the USA in the '80s to early '00s. After the US, I think the manufacturing switched to Mexico, then Jamaica & finally Honduras, where they were made for the final years before being discontinued & continue to be made there for the online versions. The online versions don't have tags, it's an embossed label on the back panel of the brief, showing the Jockey name, size & where they are made. They come in a wide variety of colours, which is really nice. Haven't seen these in red since the '80s! Seemed to be black, white & grey that were available at retail in the '00s & early '10s. The packaging isn't the matte plastic cases, like when they were sold in retail. Now, 2 briefs come in a plastic baggie to save on weight & extra bulk for shipping through the mail. I really hope Jockey don't discontinue these great brief because they are the only ones I have found that fit excellent & are so comfortable to wear..

Comfortable and well made. Good price.

They work for me!

They fit so comfortable

Cotton chones..can't go wrong! Great for support and coverage..I've heard no complaints from him about parts falling out of these, unlike others.

The design, materials and fit was fine. But there's a problem with the red briefs. Even after they have been washed, they create a red liquid when in contact with urine. They are lined with a white material but it doesn't stop the dye from coming through. I've bought this style of briefs for many years and it's good to see that they are still well made and fit properly. Normally I'd rate them 5 stars. But somebody goofed badly with the red dye. No wonder the price was so low. The blue versions don't have the problem nor do the white ones. I threw the red ones in the trash.

I have been wearing this brand and model for more than 30 years. They last forever and the cut is pretty much consistent. They are comfortable, and soft. BTW Im 71 yrs old and started wearing them in my thirties. Hehe id model a pic but i don’t think I still have the body. Haha 🤣

Poor fabric, see through. Double pack of briefs not the same size, one is one inch smaller than the other.
