    It's kind of like when I was painting for a summer in Provo. My boss had a solid contract with the church, and a lot of our work was repainting the indoors of chapels. I was working with the same shade of white almost every day. My life was bland. That all changed the next summer when I found work with another painter, and we were doing more residential painting. The addition of pigment to my work brightened my day, and made me almost forget I was a painter with a college degree.

    So yeah, I don't wear white underwear anymore. And I never paint anything white, except for my ceilings.

    I could definitely see how the higher end stuff that are advertised on podcasts could have changed the telestial undie game in the last 20 years, but I'll never know.
    My garments rarely fall apart but that’s not the only indicator of quality. I don’t like the fit and the material tends to chafe. I do like the dri-lux tops. Good fit and good quality undershirt, but I hate wearing a shirt under a t shirt. I will generally just wear mesh tops with a t shirt, but I have to shorten the sleeves of the mesh top so they don’t hang out of the t shirt sleeve. To shorten them, I just cut most of the sleeve off with scissors.

    I already have you pegged as one of those "order-the-short-garments so I can wear Seljaas-length shorts" types of guy.

    That doesn't make any sense.

    it's far more of a comfort thing than a look thing for me, but i do prefer that my garments not hang out of the bottom of my reasonable length shorts. if i get them short enough for that to be the case, the waist is too small.
    I get a good 15 years out of my g's.... Of course I have more than three pair.... maybe you should just get more and let them last longer....

    Just trying to help.

    I have no problem with garments... if they had a tank top (or even a v-neck) and more of a french cut in the bottoms I would even wear them more often.

    also lol @ garments being high quality. they are terrible.
