Table of Content - U.S. Men’s Underwear Market

The U.S. men's underwear market is a multi-billion dollar industry that has seen steady growth over the past decade. Underwear is an intimate apparel category that plays an important role in men's daily lives. While briefs and boxer briefs remain the most popular styles, once niche comfort styles such as lounge pants and boxer shorts have seen greater adoption in recent years as consumers seek improved breathability, flexibility and casual lifestyle integration. Many leading brands are introducing more functional fabrics, modernized designs, and inclusive sizing to appeal to the diverse needs of today's consumers. The underwear market is highly sophisticated and competitive, with segmented sub-categories based on material, fit, price and intended usage. Ongoing changes in fashion trends and emphasis on wellness have continued influencing demand in this category. Moreover, the emergence of new performance fabrics that wick moisture and keep the wearer dry and fresh has attracted more customers. Leading underwear manufacturers are innovating with materials as well as styles to appeal to various age groups. The adoption of online shopping and emphasis on marketing through social media platforms have also boosted the market's growth trajectory. With constant product upgrades and competitive pricing, the U.S. men's underwear market is expected to witness further expansion in the coming years.

Market Dynamics:

Some of the key drivers fueling growth in the U.S. men's underwear market include growing awareness about the maintenance of intimate hygiene, rising preference for breathable fabrics in underwear to address sweat concerns, and increasing disposable incomes among consumers.
