Can't go wrong with boxer briefs.
Boody was a brand that had rayon synthesized from bamboo that's not too bad looking and reasonably comfortable. They also last for quite a while so while they're like 20$ a "unit" you'll get your money's worth. I've got some of their boxer briefs and briefs and I've been pretty happy with them.
Pact sells organic 100% cotton stuff at about the same price point. Pretty snug so I probably should have had a slightly larger size than normal to account for shrinkage in the dryer. Lasted a couple of years before holes started to wear in them. But, they're cotton so should degrade in the dump... eventually.
Neither brand had a failure of the waistband elasticity.
And my badpost about jock straps wasn't a joke, they are super comfortable in hot weather.
