Jockeying For Position

The most common complaint shared by U.S. men (46%) dealt with wedgies, with over-stretched elastic at the legs and waist a close second (40%). Issues with tags that stick out or are uncomfortable ranked third (36%). The survey found that younger men (ages 18-34) complained most about wedgies, while older men (age 55 and older) complained more about stretched elastic. The survey respondents favored cotton as the fabric of choice, largely based on comfort.
