Boy's Bamboo Trunks - Black Currants - Step One

I have been wearing these boxes for a little while now, obviously clean each day!I have to say they are absolutely brilliant, I can't praise them enough. They are so comfortable and you don't even know you have them on half the time.I would hundred percent recommend you give them a try I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. My only observation is maybe a little pricey, but I guess you get what you pay for time will tell how well they were long-term! But I'm sure there will be feedback in the future about how long they last, and under strenuous exercise etc.Plus, they look quite flashy, smart and well put together.

The fit is tight and it initially caused rubbing on my inner thigh, step one then claimed the fit is usually small so you should order bigger??! Maybe mention that in the site then? I ordered the size I wear in all my underwear which doesn’t rub.Quality and feel is good, but I wouldn’t say they’re value for money. £19 is a lot for one pair when M&S sell 5 pairs of microskins for around £38.

Cannot Recommend - Expensive & Uncomfortable

After reading numerous positive reviews of this product, I recently purchased a pair of Step-One trunks in 'Juicy Plums' colour. (Order #515301) I was initially impressed by Step-One's site and their claims about the bamboo material the they were made from.Unfortunately, as I only purchased one pair as a trial, and of course they're now in a worn condition, I can no longer return them and/or get a refund. This is of concern to me, particularly as at $29 these trunks are very expensive compared with the cotton Jockey trunks I usually buy for half that price.I'm also concerned that no mention is made of the Step-One's bamboo production process; are the toxic chemicals sodium hydroxide and carbon disulphide, which have been linked to serious health problems, used in ... MoreAfter reading numerous positive reviews of this product, I recently purchased a pair of Step-One trunks in 'Juicy Plums' colour.

The waist band tends to roll over at your abdomen (and no, I don't have a beer gut LOL); the fabric has a "slimy" feel, unlike the softness of cotton; it feels as though you're wearing pantyhose (I imagine); the so-called comfort pouch tends to let the family jewels bang around; the fabric itself is very thin; and after repeated sitting/standing movements, the legs gradually sneak up your thighs.I used Step-One's sizing guide, which 'seems' appropriate, and purchased the 2XL size for my 112cm waist. I can only think that their sizing charts are overly generous, as I now believe that the Extra Large would've been a better fit, and possibly negate the leg creep.Overall then, a disappointing and costly buying "experiment\

Comfort, and Style All in One Package!

The day that changed my life: Picture this, it’s a warm January afternoon, I’m in a warehouse, I’m sweating and it is NOT pleasant. I take a cheeky extra smoko while nobodies looking and I start mindlessly scrolling socials. An ad appears, I don’t usually watch them but I had nothing better to do. This kiwi fruits ad sold me, I purchased them.Fast forward 4 days, it’s a Friday I’ve been working on an asbestos site for 22 hours over 2 days, I’m wearing plastic coveralls OVER the mandated longsleeve shirt and pants, it’s 39 degrees and I’m sweating up a storm. I get home and a package is waiting for me — a package for my package if you will. It’s three pairs of Step One underdacks I try on the kiwi fruits out of curiosity, got nothing better to do on a fridee arvo ... MoreThe day that changed my life: Picture this, it’s a warm January afternoon, I’m in a warehouse, I’m sweating and it is NOT pleasant.

The instant I put them on my swamp nuts were CURED. They are a breath of fresh air for place that’s usually quite stale.I should say previously quite stale, because I’m growing out every other pair I own and buying a whole wardrobe of Step Ondies.

Extremely bad. Misleading marketing

All buyers be careful as there is no description of the material they use. I was to assume they are cotton rich but it’s purely synthetic. Imagine wearing swimming trunks under your garments all day long. Better shop for Tradie brand at Big W more comfortable and half the price. Also we live in a society where layman’s language is used. Their marketing tactics are based on Latin sayings. They advertise as a pair of undies and all you get is one underwear and their explanation is as per Latin when there are two legs it’s a pair. I know by saying that they are right but be fair with people who don’t know these terms and paying for an underwear that is double the price in market thinking why not give it a try as we are paying the same for two underwear in Big W or ... MoreAll buyers be careful as there is no description of the material they use.

I found it to be very uncomfortable underwear due to synthetic material. Shirt kept slipping out and pants kept slipping down. It’s nothing but a slippery coating on your body. I’ll go back to Tradie’s from Big W.

Great and comfortable product but suspect workmanship

Purchased 7 pairs 8 months ago (7/19). One pair developed a hole in the stitching about 2 centimetres long with 3 minor very small holes (photos available and sent to customer support) along the stitching and another pair appear to be also on the decline. Given this is only a matter of months, and after washing frequency of over a week each, the product would have to be suspect on quality. Contacted support and was given a 25% voucher which was used when purchasing another 4 pairs. Having said that the individual cost was still $18.75 after applying the voucher. The product is very comfortable and quite what I wanted for my sporting activities. Should either the July purchase deteriorate again or this current purchase deteriorate after a short period of time my next ... MorePurchased 7 pairs 8 months ago (7/19).

Should either the July purchase deteriorate again or this current purchase deteriorate after a short period of time my next review is going to be quite scathing. My only complaint at this stage is quality of stitching. For the price, it should have been top quality. Currently it isn't.......further reviews to follow. Purchase date was 11 July 2019 and paypal image is available for proof of purchase and together with photos were sent to customer support over the weekend.

Hesitant but pleasantly surprised.

Been struggling to convince my self to buy something other than the Australian staple underwear brand. How much better could the alternatives really be. Just underwear right?Well finally decided to finally try some stepone's.They are super comfy over the trunks i use to be wearing. Don't get that uncomfortable feeling when walking in hot weather. They stay where they are supposed to, and i feel soo much dryer and cooler.Still early days, but so far, I would recommend people give them a go.

I have almost completely replaced all my underwear with Step One

I have almost completely replaced all my underwear with Step One trunks. They are extremely comfortable. It's like I'm not wearing anything. These are the first trunks/boxer briefs that I have tried where the legs NEVER ride up. I'm not constantly adjusting to try to pull the legs back down.Recently, I order two more pair. When I got them I washed them, but then I noticed that one of them was the wrong size. I contacted their Customer Service. After a couple of pictures to show what size I actually received, I got a notification that my replacement pair had been shipped. Great Customer Service.

I was skeptical, given the cost, but I am pleasantly surprised! Buy a pair and trial it yourself!

So when the ad for these things popped up last year in my Instagram feed, I felt the need to scoff at the price.. At the end of the year I decided to buy a pair and trial it for a while to give them a chance.They are by far and large the most comfy pair of underwear I've owned. If you think about it, I suppose for something you wear daily, spending a little bit of extra cash can sometimes be worth it.A few months later I decided to purchase a bulk of 4 to go alongside my existing pair.Whilst my existing pair has some minor fraying at the elastic, it's somewhat expected and I won't knock any stars. (I do wash warm though, and the care instructions do say best care is done cold wash, but I used a shared laundry coin operated so I can't afford to be fussy with ... MoreSo when the ad for these things popped up last year in my Instagram feed, I felt the need to scoff at the price..

But YMMV.Among the most recent purchase one pair had a TINY little hole in it, but a little bit of thread and a needle and good as new.. Even if it doesn't colour match :P. Not too fussed, as it wasn't gigantic and easily fixed.Very highly recommended, especially for those with legs that tend to rub in the upper thigh (like mine), and so far their advertising has held true in that they have not crept up like every other pair of briefs I've tried.Also packaging is great, re-usable baggies and an amusing (albeit slightly embarrassing) box that my receptionist at work received for me. I'm sure she had a giggle :P.Will look to Stepone first for future underwear purchases! Hopefully they can bring out some nice long cool plain singlets that cater for tall torso people too (as an under garment).. hint hint.. :P.

These are really good

It was very easy to find what I was after and they have a large range of colours.I bought a pair of these just after they launched and didn't like them. but that all changed.I was sick and tired of my "usual" boxers sticking to me because I was sweating and then piling up when seated which made sitting uncomfortable, plus they kept rolling up my legs.So I decided to try Step One again as well as their competitor, after trying both, Step One was my choice. Even though I didn't like them the first time I tried them.Things have come a long way since then, and Step One has made some great changes along the way.The reason I chose Step One is that their boxers don't ride up my legs, which I find really annoying with the other brand.

They simply glide under your pants, so nothing feels like it is sticking to you or bunching up under your pants, because they are so comfortable you don't notice you have them on. The waistband is excellent.If you are on the fence about these, do yourself a favour and order a pair, they have a "First Pair" refund if you don't like them, but I am guessing you will order more once you have tried them.Graeme
