American ApparelMen's Baby Rib Brief

Despite losing its original CEO and being bought by Gildan, the original recipe has not been altered. Comfortable (if you prefer any of the various types of briefs to boxer shorts); snug but not too tight, durable, color does not fade, they don’t shrink. As perfect as they can be. Plus, not having the company name all over the waistband is to my liking. Worth the money in my opinion.

These are the most comfortable briefs that I have ever worn. Don’t hesitate to make the purchase.

These look super nice and cool up until the first wash or wear. Two of mine got holes after only one wear and wash! Unreal! The material is very thin and lousy. Sizing is definitely inconsistent between them as is the quality and material so you have to pray you get lucky with these. I'd say order a size larger if you can but it depends on what you get. The craziest thing about these "American Apparel" underwear is the fact that they are same price as they've always been and they're not even made in America anymore! Which I thought was the entire point? All of mine said they were made in Guatemala. Misleading as they should be rightfully called Guatemalan Apparel.

It's no secret that the briefs that have been manufactured since AA closed down around 2017 are not the same quality as they previously were. Still, it's nice to have them available, especially when you've worn them almost exclusively since about 2008. The waistband is a thinner, inferior material and you can tell the overall material of the briefs is not quite as soft/fine. Also, there used to be about 30 colors these came in, now reduced to a handful if you can even find them in stock. I'd suggest grabbing a bunch when they go on sale for 9 or 10 bucks. The old ones gave me about a decade of life, I doubt I'll get more than about 3 years out of these newer ones, but oh well.

X-small was too tight, small was too large.

I was excited to find that American Apparel underwear was again available, as I was a fan of the originals-- they were high quality and comfortable, lasting for years. Unfortunately, while these have some of the styling, the materials and construction are inferior, with flimsy fabric and an inelastic waistband. The fit is also much different and, frankly, a bit odd. (Maybe it works for some people, but the high, tight waist is unlike anything from the original line or other brands.) I wouldn't buy these at half the price-- this is AA in name only.

For the money it's not worth it. It's an average brief, thin and a little rough at that. Might as well go with hanes at that rate. Won't return it because I've already worn it and that would be weird, but definitely don't suggest buying it.I thought it would be much more comfortable, not just a regular brief with a name brand tag ( and not even a fancy one ) slapped onto it

I used to wear these and decided to give them another try. They are comfortable and reasonably priced.
