Today I wore white cotton briefs from Umbro, I think the elastic is failing as they kept dragging down at the back, rather annoying and uncomfortable. Hope no one noticed when I bent down.

They come in a multi-pack in different colours at Sports Direct, may have to go back for more.

Umbro used to make much of the football kit in the UK in the 1970's & 80's, they competed to make the shiniest and shortest football/soccer shorts. After becoming popular in the USA, Nike bought the company and then shorts got longer, while polyester replaced nylon.

Umbro used to make everything in the UK but now it is all made in China.
