                     A brief history of men’s underwear - Jockey
Men, you probably can’t imagine your life without your modern underwear today, right? 
But, did you
know that this important piece of clothing in your wardrobe can be traced all the way 
back to 5400  BC? We are sure that the first man who decided to wear this kind of 
protection would have never
imagined that someday this product would become a billion-dollar industry that would 
go on to focus  exclusively on style, comfort, and gender appeal.
From the lion cloth and braies to codpieces and loose pantaloons, men’s bottomwear 
and innerwear  styles kept evolving. In the late 1800s, different kinds of men’s 
underwear popped up, including  union suits that had connecting vests with drawers, 
long johns that were long wool drawers for the  winter, and shorter cotton drawers with 
front buttons.
Over the years, styles of pants changed, and so did the styles of undergarments 
beneath them.  From loose to tight pants, normal to low to high waists, and buttons to 
zipper openings, today, men  wear many different styles, which calls for many different 
underwear options as well. Some common  designs that still exist today include boxer 
and Jockey shorts from the 1930s, and briefs and
mini-briefs introduced in the 1970s.
Now, if you are still wearing the same style of underwear for years, men, let history 
be proof that  style keeps evolving and every age brings you the best options to 
choose from. So, don’t wait any  longer! Here are a few styles from Jockey that you 
must check out –
