chrisanthony1211 Posted February 5, 2016 Posted February 5, 2016 (edited) I did a review on these last year, but I've decided that it's finally time to part company with my Sandberg boxer shorts, as much as love these boxes I've got my eye on something else. These are pretty well designed and finished to say that they are mass produced in some Chinese factory and not hand made by a small European or US boutique manufacturer. They are nice and light, and made from 95% premium lightweight cotton which will certainly help "the wood!" breath, with 5% elastane and extra room in the crotch, although I must admit to finding the nut spacing not quite to my liking. Machine washable at 30oc and double white go faster strips around the top for that added styling. The finish is faultless, a deep, almost translucent black, with absolutely no threads to be seen, double stitched and one size fits all, it really is quite remarkable build quality, and the attention to detail is second to none. These have been well gigged and all the stains you'd expect for that authentic roadworn look! These very fashionable, well designed boxer shorts, are surely a bargain at £850, and I'll even throw in my custom made Sandberg California TT with ebony fretboard which I only took delivery of last July.

fretmeister Posted February 5, 2016 Posted February 5, 2016 Can the pants be worn and unwashed? Asking for a friend.

mingsta Posted February 5, 2016 Posted February 5, 2016 Lovely looking pants there. But it could really do with some light relic'ing to match the bass. Is there anything you could do about that?
chrisanthony1211 Posted February 5, 2016 Author Posted February 5, 2016 (edited) I must admit to taking a short cut and using a stock photo in the initial advertisement, below is the actual pair of pants which are for sale, you will notice the added double go faster stripe detailing on the top of the waist band which is an added extra to the standard version.

chrisanthony1211 Posted February 6, 2016 Author Posted February 6, 2016 (edited) I've been asked if I would be prepared to split, sorry but these come as a pair 😬 Edited February 6, 2016 by chrisanthony1211
ead Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 Must be time for a thread about the controversial new vs roadworn pants now surely.
chrisanthony1211 Posted February 6, 2016 Author Posted February 6, 2016 [quote name='Mornats' timestamp='1454761191' post='2972695'] What's the width at the nut? [/quote] I must admit I find it a little tight......

colleya Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 [quote name='Chiliwailer' timestamp='1454744228' post='2972509'] Do they tighten up your groove? [/quote] Surely that is NOT a desired feature?

Pinball Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 Natural wear marks or were they like that new from the factory ?
chrisanthony1211 Posted February 6, 2016 Author Posted February 6, 2016 Pants weigh in at a rather hip friendly 63 grams.....
