I’m a guy with above average thighs who enjoys weightlifting and biking. Consequently, I’m wearing through all my pairs of workout shorts, and the liners are filled with an embarrassing amount of holes.

Any recommendations? I prefer shorts with liners so I don’t need to wear underwear underneath while I’m working out.

Thank you in advance for the recommendations!

    Under Armour Tactical Heat Gear compression undershirts.

    UA Performance Tech™ Mesh Boxerjock, either the 6in or 9in to prevent chafing, don’t get the 3in version.

    Both last at least 4 years for me with daily use, rotating through about two weeks worth of undershirts and boxerbriefs. Machine wash and low heat in the dryer, I don’t do anything fancy to make them last longer. I just replace the whole set in bulk once they start getting too worn. But I’ve never had holes develop and rarely have the stitching/seams come undone. Usually its the labels that start to wear off by the 4 year mark and I just figure its time to get a new set (or I feel like getting different colors).

    Maybe there’s some buildup of deodorant on the undershirts after 2 years, but I just soak them in diluted rubbing alcohol and it all dissolves out.
