   Four pack in ASDA UK for 8 Quid, less than 400 Baht

Yep. I usually wait for the annual sojourn to the UK, for cheap shopping, clothes, shoes, etc. Don't think I've ever bought undies or socks in Thailand in nearly 30 years..

All seem to be at least 50% polyester content here also.?

Brand names copies are available from the night market – might be excellent quality – I'm however not familiar with, if the sellers have a space for testing the size before buying; I presume it's not allowed to undress and try underwear in public...:whistling:


Real brand names can be bought in shopping malls, brand name shops and department stores, they often have a test room (at least for ladies underwear).


I'm a Cheap Charlie, so I use to buy my undies in BigC, 4-5 pair for 99 baht...:thumbsup: Boxer short are more expensive, but from around 100 baht – they might however not have well known Western brand names.

Most local markets have cotton boxers on sale for 60-70 bt a pair.

S-M-L-XL-XXL.

So they wouldn't fit 90% of the farangs here

Please read the OP before commenting, he said he already tried Lazada. 

 

The op said his purchase didn't fit. I am fairly certain, thought I could be wrong, they have more than one shop and one size on Lazada.

Here's one link, up to 5XL. https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/OEM-ODM-Wholesale-100-Cotton-Comfortable_1600849626032.html?spm=a2700.galleryofferlist.normal_offer.d_image.37123ae548CfdC

 

Still looking for the other company which I've used 3 times before, always happy with purchases, I buy 5 items every time, prompt delivery, they make up to 9XL. I'll keep searching.

Problem is the Asian hip to waist ratio is different. If you're used to medium in the west (33-35" waist, comfortable to sit down in), the equivalent correct waist size on a pair of local boxers from Big C or Lotus will be way too tight around the hips and buttocks. Same true of trousers here.

The OP should generally buy one size up from his norm on Lazada.

I buy at MBK.  They are right on with the sizing and even take into account the waist and my little man.

 

The sizing makes a huge difference, and i agree that buying online is a crap shoot even for women's clothing
