Me being a white briefs guy my who life, that's what my sons wear too. I've never heard either of them complaining about wear briefs,I thought for sure by middle school they'd be wanting something else but neither asked so my wife and I just continue buying them white briefs.

If they wanted something else I'd buy them colors briefs instead. I personally don't like boxers or boxers briefs so I'd try to keep them away from those
