Clearly you are not familiar with the line. They are solids and stripes not patterned. The high quality of the cotton and loose cut of the knit boxers makes for ideal underwear or boys.

What is wrong with tighty whites is they are ugly, old-fashioned, dorky, and, once he is changing in front if other boys, they will laugh their behinds off at him. It will be embarrassing for him. DS had one friend who wore cheesy character briefs in 2nd or 3rd grade. DS (and other boys) did not make fun of that boy but did ask what the heck he was wearing. They had never seen those underwear before. Starting in 4th all the boys change into PE clothes together at school so we clued his mom in before it got to that.
Mine are 14 and 16 and have never experienced that. They still wear tightie whities. They have been in charge of picking out their own underwear since 5?
Where do they go to school? What sports teams do they play on. Both are part of it (the boxer v tighty whiteys choice). Honest to God, I was taught that boys from "good families" wore boxers, the nice boys, preppy boys, private school boys. This may or may not be true but my own personal experience would support this generalization.
