SAXX says: 

Your body should be the only thing bouncing around during high-impact workouts. Power up with high-performance underwear: Kinetic Light-Compression Mesh. Designed for high-intensity sports and fitness activities, this pair provides additional muscle support and features the more supportive BallPark Pouch™ PRO to keep your balls from jumping and bumping.

Our Verdict

The SAXX Kinetic Light-Compression Mesh Boxer Long Leg are a high-performance underwear option for active hikers. While primarily designed for high-intensity workouts, its features make it an excellent choice for long treks and challenging trails.

The light compression provides muscle support, which can be beneficial during steep climbs or descents. The 4-way stretch fabric and Three-D Fit™ ensure freedom of movement, which is crucial for navigating varied terrain. The breathable micro-mesh and moisture-wicking properties help keep you dry and comfortable, even during strenuous hikes.

One standout feature is the BallPark Pouch™ PRO, which offers extra support and reduces chafing—a common issue on long hikes. Seriously, I don’t go hiking without a pair of SAXX because of this feature. The Flat Out Seams™ further enhance comfort by minimising irritation. The longer leg prevents the boxers from riding up, ensuring you stay comfortable. 

The odour-resistant material is a plus for multi-day hikes, while the durable nylon-elastane blend should withstand the rigours of the trail.
