When it comes to men’s underwear, comfort is key. And one of the most popular styles of men’s underwear is the boxer shorts. Boxer shorts are known for their loose, comfortable fit and are a favorite choice among men of all ages.

If you’re interested in learning how to sew your own men’s boxer shorts, you’re in luck! In this article, we’ll provide you with a sewing sample for making your very own pair of boxer shorts.

Materials you’ll need:
– 1 yard of cotton fabric
– 1 yard of elastic
– Sewing machine
– Scissors
– Thread
– Pins
– Ruler
– Pencil or fabric marker

Step 1: Cutting the fabric
Start by laying out your fabric on a flat surface. Using your ruler and pencil or fabric marker, measure and mark out a rectangle that is 16 inches wide and 24 inches long. This will be the main body of your boxer shorts.

Next, cut out the rectangle using your scissors. Once you have your main body piece, set it aside.

Step 2: Cutting the waistband
For the waistband of your boxer shorts, measure and cut out a strip of fabric that is 4 inches wide and 24 inches long. This will be the elastic casing for your boxer shorts.

Step 3: Sewing the main body
Fold the main body piece in half lengthwise with the right sides facing each other. Pin the sides together and sew along the edges using a straight stitch, leaving a 1/2 inch seam allowance. Be sure to backstitch at the beginning and end of your seams to secure them.

Step 4: Sewing the waistband
Fold the waistband piece in half lengthwise with the right sides facing each other. Pin the sides together and sew along the edges using a straight stitch, leaving a 1/2 inch seam allowance. Be sure to backstitch at the beginning and end of your seams to secure them.

Step 5: Attaching the waistband
With the main body piece still inside out, slide the waistband over the top edge of the main body piece, aligning the raw edges. Pin the waistband in place and sew along the top edge using a straight stitch, leaving a small opening to insert the elastic.

Step 6: Inserting the elastic
Cut a piece of elastic that is 1 inch shorter than the circumference of your waist. Using a safety pin, feed the elastic through the opening in the waistband, being careful not to twist it. Once the elastic is fully inserted, overlap the ends by 1 inch and sew them together securely.

Step 7: Finishing the boxer shorts
Close the opening in the waistband by sewing it shut with a straight stitch. Trim any excess fabric and elastic, and turn the boxer shorts right side out.

Congratulations, you’ve just made your very own pair of men’s boxer shorts! Feel free to customize them with different fabric patterns and colors to suit your style. And now that you have the sewing sample, you can easily make more pairs to add to your underwear drawer. Enjoy the comfort and satisfaction of wearing handmade boxer shorts that you created yourself.
