Xander McKee & The Case for the Classic Brief
Country artist Xander McKee has a straightforward approach to classic white briefs: if something is comfortable, supportive, and works for you, why worry about whether everyone else thinks it's fashionable?
Rather than choosing a slimmer or more modern cut, McKee prefers the traditional full-cut brief — embracing its generous coverage, familiar shape, and unmistakable old-school character.
We caught up with Xander to talk about why he continues to choose the classic style.
A Conversation with Xander McKee
Short InterviewFor me, it really comes down to comfort and support. I like the way a full-cut brief feels. It gives you that secure feeling without having to think about what you're wearing underneath your clothes.
I like that it doesn't try to be something it's not. It's a traditional brief with plenty of coverage and support. Some modern underwear can feel very minimal, and that's just not necessarily what I'm looking for. I actually like the extra material and the more substantial feel of a full-cut brief.
Not really. I think that's part of the fun. If someone thinks they're dorky, that's fine. I'm comfortable with them, literally and figuratively. I don't think you should stop wearing something you enjoy just because somebody else might have a different idea of what's cool.
Give them a shot. Especially if you're looking for support, I think most men should at least try a good pair of briefs. You might be surprised by how comfortable they are. There's a reason they've been around for so long.
Absolutely. Trends come and go, but comfort doesn't really go out of style. I think there's something nice about embracing a classic instead of always feeling like you have to follow whatever is considered modern.
