How Often Should You Replace Your Underwear? 
Underwear may be the unsung hero of your wardrobe, but it plays a crucial role in your daily comfort. Yet, many men aren't sure how often they should refresh their collection. At MAN’s SET, we believe your underwear should always be fresh, functional, and fit for your lifestyle. Here’s everything you need to know about when and why you should replace your underwear.

1. The Signs It’s Time for New Underwear
Your underwear doesn’t last forever, and there are clear signs when it’s time to let go of that favorite pair. Here’s what to look out for:

Elastic Is Worn Out: If the waistband is stretched out or no longer holds its shape, it’s time to replace your underwear. The waistband plays a crucial role in fit, and once it’s compromised, the comfort goes out the window.
Holes or Tears: This might seem obvious, but any holes or thinning fabric is a sure sign that your underwear has seen better days.
Fading Fabric: Over time, even high-quality fabrics lose their vibrancy and structure. Faded or worn-out material may not offer the same support or breathability as a fresh pair.
Persistent Odor or Stains: Even with regular washing, some stains or odors just won’t go away. Bacteria and sweat can accumulate, leading to less-than-fresh underwear.
At MAN’s SET, we design our underwear to last, but even the best pairs will need to be replaced over time.

2. How Often Should You Replace Your Underwear?
The general recommendation is to replace your underwear every 6 to 12 months, depending on how often you wear each pair and how well you take care of them. If you’re rotating through multiple pairs, they’re likely to last a little longer, but regular wear will inevitably cause them to break down.

Here’s a rough guide:

Daily Wear: If you’re wearing the same pairs regularly, expect them to last around 6-9 months.
Less Frequent Wear: If you have a larger rotation, some pairs could last up to 12 months or more.
It’s important to pay attention to how your underwear feels and looks. If they’ve lost their elasticity, look faded, or feel uncomfortable, it’s time for a refresh.

3. Why Should You Replace Your Underwear?
It’s easy to overlook, but regularly replacing your underwear is important for both hygiene and comfort.

Hygiene: Old underwear can harbor bacteria, sweat, and odors that don’t always get washed out. Keeping your underwear fresh and clean helps avoid skin irritation or infections.
Comfort: As the fabric breaks down, underwear loses its fit and comfort. Saggy waistbands, worn-out fabric, or stretched-out leg openings can lead to discomfort throughout the day.
Appearance: While no one sees your underwear (usually), wearing fresh, high-quality pairs can boost your confidence and make you feel more put-together, even under your clothes.
At MAN’s SET, we’re all about comfort, support, and style. Our anatomical designs are built for long-lasting comfort, but like anything you wear regularly, they should be replaced to maintain that unbeatable feeling.

4. How to Care for Your Underwear
One of the best ways to extend the life of your underwear is to care for them properly. High-quality underwear, like those from MAN’s SET, will last longer if you follow these simple care tips:

Wash in Cold Water: Hot water can wear down the fabric and elastic over time. Stick to cold water for washing your underwear.
Gentle Cycle: Avoid the heavy-duty settings on your washing machine. A gentle cycle helps preserve the fabric’s integrity.
Air-Dry: High heat from the dryer can weaken elastic and cause shrinkage. Air-dry your underwear whenever possible to keep them in top shape.
By following these steps, you’ll get more mileage out of each pair and delay the need to replace them. However, even with the best care, nothing lasts forever—so don’t hesitate to refresh your collection when needed.
