How Innovative Is Your Mens Micro Modal Boxer Brief Underwear??

It’s probably not a question you’ve asked yourself lately, or maybe ever, but at Tani USA, we think it’s an important question, and we think you’ll appreciate our getting to the bottom of it…so to speak.

Many brands offer modal underwear or micro modal underwear as a feature fabric in their mens boxer briefs and premium mens underwear, etc. However, most people don’t know that there are several versions of Micro Modal Underwear, and even fewer people have the slightest idea what those differences are.

So a quick primer on the illustrious Micro Modal Underwear fabric is on order. Modal was invented 50 years ago by an Austrian company, Lenzing AG. Modal was a breakthrough as a stronger and more stable type of Rayon, plus it had a similar feel to cotton. It’s also entirely natural, made from the pulp of beech wood trees. It was a breakthrough fabric innovation that changed the world. Ok, maybe just the clothing world, but still.

Truth: most micro modal underwear does not use the patented fibers, meaning they do not adhere to any of the sustainability or environmental standards.  They also are combined with other less expensive fabrics to create "blends" which are watered down versions at best.

But the fine folks who invented Modal didn’t stop there. They continued to refine the fabric and improve the process, and in 1985 they introduced Micro Modal®. Thinner, softer and yet even stronger than regular Modal, it is the current fabric that many “higher-end” underwear brands use for their top-of-the-line products. Although sometimes they use 60-year-old tech, generic versions of Modal, as well.

Today, most of these brands still claim the 30-year-old Micro Modal underwear fabric is an innovation and  the most comfortable underwear for men. And it was probably a valid point until Micro Modal® Air was introduced in 2012.

This new and vastly improved fabric features a thinner, finer fiber that is actually softer than silk, yet extremely durable and pliant. And further, Micro Modal® Air is produced using an environmental fiber technology which is significantly more eco-friendly than the tech used to create both Modal® and Micro Modal®. In fact, it’s CO2 neutral.

Tani USA is the only mens luxury underwear brand that features Micro Modal® Air. And that’s why we’re a bit more confident when we say you’ve never felt comfort like this before. Because, well…you haven’t. Of course, there’s nothing wrong with using the various Modal® fabrics, but at Tani USA, we feel it’s important for people to understand why Micro Modal® Air is truly a remarkable fabric innovation and why it feels so different, so much better.

It’s like the difference between the first mobile phone and your phone today. Sure they can both make a call, but the similarity ends there. So the question is, would you pay a premium for a 30 year-old, 20 pound clunker? We wouldn’t either.
