Not as good as expected – Not as good as expected. I ordered the long leg as I have ordered long leg from Step one, the legs were not long at all, and I found the waiste to be loose, but the legs to be tight. Show details
waste of money – i thought i would give them a go and bought a fair few pairs. flimsy feel. pouch doesn’t hold anything in place after an hour or so. was a waste of money. Show details

Defects - No response – Seems to be a trend in the feedback provided by others when a complaint is made to Tackle on the quality of their undies ( I too have a new pair with a hole in them). I have logged 3 emails seeking feedback on what can be done. Tackle does not respond. Show details

Lightweight, comfy & cool undies – My bf got these pants to test and review. Here it is. Nice and light material which feels comfortable when wearing them. I was cool when wearing them at work, no riding up or chafing that I noticed. Has a ‘pouch’ on the inside which seems to keep everything in place. I had a medium length leg and long length leg to try, think I prefer the shorter of the two. They washed up nice and I would probably buy them. I’d recommend them yes. Show details
Impressed with the feel and quality – We recently got two pairs of Tackle Bamboo underwear and on first impressions was really impressed with how soft the fabric was. Once wearing they were incredibly comfortable and did not ride up at all. No markings left on the skin and found they were easy to wash. I’ll now be making a purchase for a few more pairs. Great quality Show details

Disappointing – I had purchased some of these underwear for my partner and to say I’m a little disappointed is the very least. After wearing them a few times, they have started to get holes in them along the seem line at the back near the anti-chafe panels. My partner loves these types of underwear and loves how they fit perfectly, don’t chafe or ride up on… Read more
him. He says they’re comfortable in all the right places.
I have done my absolute best to follow all the instructions very carefully on how to wash and dry them.
I have had this same problem with a similar company and was sick of having to go back and forth as their products didn’t live up to what they had promised.
For the amount of money you guys charge for underwear it’s highly disappointing that these are doing the same.
I am truly at a loss here. I have no idea what we are doing wrong, I definitely will be passing on these products too as I don’t have the time or money to be constantly replacing these items.
The only thing that I would say was alright was the customer service. They responded to my concerns efficiently and even offered me a discount code (didn’t work on the website btw)

BEST BAMBOO UNDERWEAR - NO EXCEPTIONS – TACKLE are the best and most comfortable underwear I’ve owed and also at a very competitive price. I’ve tried that “other leading brand” and they’ve got nothing on these. The other leading brand are $11 more expensive as you have to pay more for the additional fly, but TACKLE offer them as standard - already winning there. I knew as soon as I… Read more
put them on I was going to like them. The support they give my frank and beans is instant and you feel it. Far more superior and noticeable than any other underwear I’ve tried. I’ve now been wearing these for 2 weeks and I don’t bother with my other brand anymore. I’ve now gone on and ordered plenty of pairs to replace my other branded underwear.
I should also add that no matter if you order 1 pair, it is still despatched fast and with tracking (the other brand doesn’t give you tracking and takes over a week to receive).
My only criticism is that the colour range is quite vast, but the main favourable colours are available. Hopefully in time they will release new colours like Red, Purple, Yellow or something way out there.
Thank you
Forgettably comfortable – I got one pair of mid length and one pair of long length. These undies are literally forgettable. I remember the first day I wore them and then going to the loo the first time that day and seeing the label, and thought "holy crap, I totally forgot I was wearing these new undies for the first time", I literally forgot, that is a testament to how… Read more
comfortable they are. Honestly what more can you want?! I struggle to find comfy undies, I have bigger than average legs for my overall physique, so it's a nightmare finding good undies, and can comfortably say these are the best I have ever tried, no chafing and very little to no riding up the legs, I can't feel the stitching, seams or tags either (and I bloody notice these on my other undies so that is an achievement in itself!). You beauty, I finally found some seriously comfy undies. Just note, despite the leg sizes currently advertised on their charts, you can definitely fit bigger legs than the chart suggests (e.g. my mid length undies with size chart opening of 40.5cm are wrapped around a 66cm circumference thigh, and are comfortable).
Positive reviews
The best undies ever – Absolutely amazing, soo comfortable, unbelievable, love it, quality product, lasting, reliable, by far the best undies i have ever wore, excellent job guys keep it up. Show details
My truck driving honey LOVES them – I have bought many different brands trying to find the right comfort for my man and THESE ARE THE WINNING BRAND. definitely ordering again Show details
These are awesome best I’ve ever worn – Bought these for my husband and he states they are the best underwear that he has ever worn especially since he’s a truck driver as he no longer has to constantly re- adjust Just ordered another 5 Show details
Negative reviews
Not recommend – Would not recommend, elastic has stretched and material showing signs of pilling, only purchased 2 months ago (made bulk purchase due to the discount)

they start to fall apart just after warranty expires – I purchased 6 pairs and they all started to disintegrate soon after the warranty expired. Phone calls and emails not returned and eventually told they have no quality issues despite seeing the photos I sent. Will never buy them again as they are expensive and don't last

The best undies I've found – A great product, excellent quality, very comfortable and gives support everywhere a fella needs it... I ordered one pair first and from that experience, I have just ordered 5 more pairs... It's great to get free shipping these days, especially across the ditch to NZ... Show details
Finally Found the Perfect Boxer Briefs – I test ordered a pair of mid length boxer briefs and loved everything except the length. Just ordered 5 pairs of the long leg boxer briefs and I’m sure they will be perfect. The contour pouch is awesome. The waist band doesn’t roll over and the legs don’t ride up. Comparable to Krakatoa but better fit on leg and better price. Good job Tackle!!! Show details
Can't live without them! – Being a big fella who spends a lot of time outdoors, these undies really protect your thighs from the usual intense gravel rash you get between the legs! Show details
Really, REALLY good undies!!! – I rarely write Reviews but this product deserves all the great words everyone seems to be saying about it!! I bought some ages ago but they don’t wear out so I haven’t needed to get any more for AGES!!! I’m in the Furniture Removals game so our work is nothing sort of BRUTAL, and all our gear needs to be able to handle it. I haven’t had chafing in… Read more
YEARS, thanks to these undies, but thought I should get some new ones finally and I’ve tried the ‘big name’ brands before but they ALWAYS fall apart and leave me with chafing. I wear the long ones so that’s all I can vouch for but with the Tackle undies, their durability is insane as I don’t think I’ve had to buy any for at least 2 years!!! I never have to adjust them during the day and I never think about them as I never feel them on me!! To top it all off, they’re Aussie owned and cheaper than those ‘big brands’ so I’m happily about to order 15 newbies!!!
Best briefs I have ever had – I bought a few to try out after 50 years of jockey shorts ridding up, falling down, or tying up my privates. The Tackle underwear was like wearing nothing at all. Smooth, light, comfortable and never let me down or tied me up. I’ve just bought more! Show details
Worst thing have ever brought – I purchased 5 long length mens underwear after seeing these on Facebook. It cost NZD $125, I purchased these mid April and got these one month later, there as only one email me to update on when they left Australia. The worst thing of these is I have thrown out 4 of the 5 pairs as the elastic is useless, when I walk ten meters they roll down and… Read more
are under your butt within this time, only one pair of 5 is acceptable.
I choose to throw them out as I did contact them, but it seems you have to send two emails to get a response.
It was just not worth the effort to contact them and arrange shipping, their service, getting back to you and then the product is totally useless.
It comes in small black plastic bags, just cheap all round.
I don't purchase much online, but usually you get an invoice, emails on shipments updates and the product is good and you get responses to your emails.
I implore you to look at other brands, there is so many out there. I was looking forward to getting these but it has been a huge disappointment on EVERY term.
They deserve a 0, as there is nothing positive that I can say of them.

Ordered 3mths ago and and never received anything – I ordered 3 months ago and never received my order. The customer support is completely unhelpful, replying once in 2 weeks, telling I'll get it. I'm actually begining to think it's a scam Show details

Briefs be gone! – Husband used to be a regular bonds brief guy. Bought some of these great trunks(the hot pink ones) for Christmas! Now, he won't wear anything else, threw out the briefs and there's no more chafing at the golfcourse! Happy hubby
The most uncomfortable underwear I've ever owned – Let's compare this to Step One. 1. The inner leg friction free area is small so for big blokes, this will do nothing to stop the chafe feeling. 2. The ball bag slot has to be the worst design I've ever seen in underwear. 3. Fabric quality is horrendous. Kmart underwear is better. Let's talk about customer service: Terrible buying process… Read more
Terrible return policy as they make you pay for the return which was not stated. Lack of empathy
Blokes - think again before getting these.
I bought 15 Pairs and thankfully I only opened one I spent an entire day through 2 workouts and office day to find myself adjusting every 5 minutes.

If you want rash, here it is!! – The outside of the trunks is fine, but the inside uses a synthetic mesh to half construct a pouch. It merely works as a nut grater. Unless you like that feeling, do not buy these Show details
Great product and Service – The product is comfortable and the fit I like. I purchased a size that didn't fit and unfortunately, the returns were lost in the mail. Anu was kind enough to send 3 new pairs in the size I needed anyway. Perfect product and service so I highly recommend. Show details
Bonza – Absolutely the best wearing and load carrying underwear I have ever worn and comfy to boot.Store was easy to navigate pleased with the range and quality. Show details
Gamechangers – These are absolute must haves, they're gamechangers for people who chafe. Makes life so much easier! Just wish they survived longer, most of mine have holes in them within the first 6 months. Show details
