Description, Tech Specs, Fabric & Source
Nothing's more comfortable than the skin you live in, but our Balance line of body-mapping first layers comes pretty close. Made from our exclusive, superfine 17.5 micron merino blended with a hint of Spandex, Balance T's, tanks and briefs are seamless and contoured to your body, no matter how you move or what you're doing. That means support, comfort and maximum breathability, kind of like... well, like a second skin.

Light, wear alone or as a first layer.

    Comments about Ibex Balance Boxer Short:

    I bought two pair after reading some reviews and
    was very pleased with the fit and performance.
    I have sence aquired three more pair, they are
    a bit spendy but comfort is a value.

      They were a little small but thanks reviewers, I sized up. I'm normally a large but the XL fits perfectly. Light compression...excellent fit. Feel great hiking.

      Comments about Ibex Balance Boxer Short:

      I use these (along with the Balance Briefs) for hiking skiing and traveling. Most comments will be the same as for the boxer short, with differences being that these wear a bit warmer and seem slightly less high waisted (really they could be 5 cm shorter in the waist). They are easily washable in a sink on the road and wear well for longer than I should admit. Though a bit warmer than cotton underwear of a similar style they wear longer and easier and are much easier to wash and dry. The length makes them better than the briefs for skiing (a bit more warmth).

        Comments about Ibex Balance Boxer Short:

        These have been out of stock for a while. Finally back in stock and I went with the large size even though I usually wear a medium. Large is a tiny bit big but not as big as were last year's model. I fold the top over a bit and they are fine. Comfortable thourghout the day, outside in warm weather after a bike ride or sleeping in them. Very comfortable. I now have three pair. I wish they cost less.

          Completely comfortable for everything from casual to adventure wear. I am always a medium, but followed the advice of the other reviews and ordered a large, which fits me perfectly.

          Comments about Ibex Balance Boxer Short:

          I love these boxers - I prefer a snug boxer, and these are exactly that! They are soft and comfortable, and have all the wonderful properties of Ibex wool - breathable, not smelly, etc. The only drawback I have found is the waist is somewhat high - I do tend to roll them down a little. Overall a great product - I bought one pair to try them out, and am ordering several more.

            The test-ride: when not in a wetsuit, wore them for a week during a kayak trip in southeast Alaska. Results? I looked forward to putting them on as much as I looked forward to dinner. Comfy. Smart. And a good balance between tight and not restrictive.

              i had previously purchased the zephyr boxers and loved them, so i figured id give these a swing as well..... the seamless nature of the product is pretty cool, but theyre just too darned tight! that and the waist seems to want to roll over the second you put them on. maybe in a bit ill get more into these, but so far im a much larger fan of the zephyr!

                An earlier review was correct, buy bigger than usual. I have a 32 inch waist and medium is generally my size. That proved way too tight. Large is just the ticket. Other than size, you can't go wrong.
