City Boxer Shopping Information

We cut and sew your boxer shorts after we receive your order so we are not at all like other boxer-short companies. We do not have boxer shorts gathering dust in a warehouse. On the contrary, we have lots of different fabrics (gathering dust in our backroom ;>) we can use; none of which are cut until an order comes in requesting that fabric.

We can create your boxers based on many different variables. In fact, your boxers can be made in 11,520 variations. For instance, we have forty different sizes from which to choose (23-XS to 55-4X), we have four different lengths (3", 4", 5" and 7"), two waistbands (inside exposed, plush waistband or we can cover a 1-1/2-inch waistband in fabric), we can use four different fly configurations--buttons, snaps, no fastener, or we can close the fly entirely, three different rises--normal, tall and short--and, lastly, we can create an excellent safety pouch for your shorts, or not, or we can add a snap rail so you can snap the pouch from another pair you have had a pouch added. And, since we have around 100 fabrics, this makes for 1,152,000 variations, more or less. Wow!

With all of this going on, shopping here must seem like a daunting task. Actually, it is pretty simple, really?!? However, if you should have questions, I will gladly respond to your email asking for advice on boxer component choices. And, if you are a do-it-yourselfer, there are many areas on the web site offering information that should help you make informed choices.

The City Boxer web site is "miner friendly." If you enjoy digging for information, you will love this site. Only the main site pages are visible upon opening and navigating the site. You can, however, find tons of information by clicking on any of the hundreds of hyperlinks spread all over the place. These hyperlinks will typically bring up simple popup windows that will supply you with information that will help you understand a lot about what we do, materials we use, generalized boxer information, specific boxer information, measurement charts, etc.

Our price will depend on what you are looking for. Our prices typically increase as the fabric costs increase. Some prices are higher due to the fact that some styles are harder to create. Generally, though, the reason one style is more expensive than another is because the fabric is more expensive.

On our style selection pages, you will need to make some choices. Each fabric we buy can be cut many different ways for you, and you will need to know what you want.

To enter an area where you can see what we have, click on one of the items at the top of the main City Boxer page--All Boxers, 60-Square Cloth, Portuguese Flannel, Solid-Color Flannel, Prints, Shirting, Sateen, Other Fabrics, Bargains. I am going to click on the Prints area at the top so that I can walk you through use of a typical shopping page.

Once you click on the 'Prints' item in the logo at the top, or from the list along the left edge of the web page, a page will appear showing you all of the print boxers we can create for you. Once you find a fabric you like, click on the swatch of that fabric to enter the page where you can actually order boxers.

A page will appear where you will see a small image of the boxers in question at the top along with some links so that you can view the image in a larger size, and take a look at a large swatch piece and information regarding the fabric. To the right is the price.

Choose the size you would like, the quantity, and any of the options. Please note that some options will adjust the price you pay. When you have made all of the optional changes you want, click on the Submit button to add the item, or items, to your shopping cart.
