New from American Eagle

It's official, briefs are back at American Eagle. A couple weeks back it came to my attention that most of the men's underwear at American Eagle was on clearance for 4.95, that got me to thinking that they must have something new up their sleeve as they never have all of it on clearance. My hunch was correct. AE just reintroduced their brief in 7 solid colors, a couple striped patterns, eagle design and camo. Along with the new style, AE has also redesigned the waistband on all their fitted men's underwear (i.e. briefs, boxerbriefs, trunks, etc.). The new band is thicker with a bigger and bolder logo - in keeping with the current waistband trend in men's underwear. This new band first came to my attention when it was seen in a promotional photo on the site a couple weeks ago (peeking above some boardshorts; image shown). The price point has stayed the same on the new undies ($12.50 each or 2 for $20), which is a steal when compared to other fashion-foward underwear. All the new underwear is currently available online and will be available in stores sometime next week.

I liked the assortments and fit of the briefs, I ended up buying a dozen. The fit is perfect for me. Excellent quality in the stitching and pattern style.

These are from an old season, but they were available at American Eagle Outfitters. Good luck getting past seasons, maybe check eBay? But to check out AE's current collection of undies go here - http://www.ae.com/web/browse/category.jsp?catId=cat10032
