Winter 2011 Comet: Wind Protection For Men's Unmentionables

I tried searching, but I get crap from 2007 and whatnot.

I like to run. I don't like to run in pants or even tights, although I will bust out the latter if it gets down near freezing. I don't like the pain in the nether region that occurs during freeze-down and especially thaw-out.

So what's the current fave for protection of the bits? I cruised RunningWarehouse and noticed only one brief among a gazillion boxer-briefs of various inseams. Any ... um ... "jailbreak" issues with boxer-briefs as compared to briefs or built-in shorts liners?

Google yerself up some running wind briefs. Most of the major running gear companies have 'em in lots of shapes and styles.

Thread over.

2013 goals: Kick some arse. Moreso than 2012.

Not so fast. I can throw terms into Google all day long. I wanna know what WORKS (and what doesn't). Come on, Enlightened Men of RA, step forward and talk about your ... gear.
