Hey man, have you heard of Birddogs? If not, let me put you on to the most revolutionary pair of shorts your legs will ever experience. I know, I know, that‘s a bold claim. But trust me, once you go Birddog, you‘ll never go back to regular underwear and shorts again.
What Makes Birddogs Special
So what exactly is Birddogs and why am I so obsessed? In a nutshell, Birddogs is a men‘s clothing brand that specializes in making insanely comfortable, stylish shorts with a game-changing feature: built-in underwear liners.
Yep, you read that right. Imagine never having to deal with bunched up, sweaty underwear riding up your crack every time you move. Or awkwardly adjusting yourself in public. Or feeling restricted by tight briefs that cut off your circulation.
Birddogs solves all those problems by combining two garments – underwear and shorts – into one sleek, streamlined pair. The lightweight boxer brief liner is seamlessly attached to the inside of the shorts, so it moves with your body and stays put, no matter what you‘re doing.
And here‘s the real kicker – you can wear them commando. Let your boys breathe and feel the breeze, without any risk of indecent exposure. It‘s literally like wearing nothing at all, but still having the support and modesty you need.
How Birddogs Became a Cult Favorite
Birddogs was founded in 2014 by two regular guys, Peter Baldwin and Ian Mukherjee, who were fed up with the status quo of men‘s underwear and shorts.
They started with one simple mission: to free men from the tyranny of underwear and create the most comfortable, versatile pair of shorts on the planet. And man, did they deliver.
Since launching, Birddogs has exploded in popularity, garnering a cult following of guys who swear by their "go commando" shorts. Just check out these crazy stats:
- Birddogs has sold over 2 million pairs of shorts to date
- 92.3% of customers say they would buy Birddogs again
- Repeat customers buy on average 4 pairs of Birddogs shorts
- Birddogs saw 200% YoY growth in 2020 alone
So yeah, it‘s not just me who‘s drinking the Kool-Aid. Birddogs has legit changed the game and converted tons of guys into liner-short believers.
Trying Birddogs For Myself
Obviously, with so much hype around Birddogs, I had to put them to the test myself. I ordered a few of their best-selling styles and wore them non-stop for a month straight. Here‘s my honest review:
Birddogs Gym Shorts
I practically live in gym shorts 24/7, so I was pumped to try Birddogs‘ signature training shorts. I opted for the 7" Lined Gym Shorts in the Deer Hunter Camo print, because I‘m all about those stealthy vibes.
Guys, I was blown away from the second I put these on. The material is insanely lightweight and stretchy, yet still durable and sweat-wicking. I can move in any direction without feeling an ounce of restriction.
The game-changer is the boxer brief liner though – it‘s like a second skin. The softest, most breathable fabric gently hugs your package and keeps everything in place, without any riding up or chafing. I did box jumps, sprints, deadlifts, and burpees in these bad boys and never once had to readjust.
Plus, the print is sick and I got so many compliments on them. 10/10 would recommend to any gym junkie looking to up their workout wardrobe. Trust, your junk will thank you.
Birddogs Khaki Shorts
I know what you‘re thinking – how can a pair of khaki shorts be revolutionary? But man, the Birddogs Khaki Shorts will make you a believer.
I went with the crowd-favorite 7" Khaki Shorts in the Stone color. They have the perfect amount of stretch to them, so you can move freely without feeling stiff or confined. The fit is impeccable too – slim and tailored, but not too tight in the thighs or crotch.
But the real genius is the built-in liner. It‘s like having invisible air conditioning for your nether regions. I wore these out on a scorching 90°F day to an outdoor BBQ. While all my buddies were sweating through their jeans and chinos, I was cool as a cucumber, letting everything breathe unrestricted. No swass, no chafing, no bunching.
Not to mention, the Stone color is super versatile and easy to dress up or down. I wore them to the office with a button-down and loafers, and got serious style points from my coworkers. Then I swapped the shirt for a graphic tee and sneakers for beers with the boys. Same shorts, two wildly different vibes.
I‘m telling you, once you experience the magic of Birddogs Khakis, you‘ll want to burn every other pair of pants in your closet. These are the ultimate summer staple.
Birddogs Pants
Now I know we‘re all stoked for shorts season, but let‘s be real – sometimes you need a solid pair of pants. And Birddogs has you covered.
I copped the Birddogs Jefferson Soft Khakis in the Harbor Mist color and the Birddogs Joggers in the Heritage Blue. Both are made with the same signature Birddogs performance fabric and liner as their shorts, just in pant form.
The Jefferson Soft Khakis are a godsend for anyone who has to dress business casual for work. They have a modern, tailored fit that looks smart and professional. But unlike your typical stuffy slacks, these are stretchy and breathable AF.
I wore them on a 6-hour plane ride for a work trip and didn‘t experience an ounce of discomfort or tightness. Usually I can‘t wait to rip my pants off the second I get to the hotel, but I actually lounged in these all evening. That‘s how cozy they are.
Same goes for the Joggers. I love me a good sweatpant, but let‘s face it, most joggers are sloppy as hell. The Birddogs Joggers though are polished enough to wear out in public, while still being insanely comfy.
I rock mine on WFH days, errand runs, and weekend hangs on the regular. They‘re stretchy, soft, and the tapered fit is super flattering. Plus, that built-in liner means I can lounge freely on the couch without my roommates copping an eyeful of my junk. Win-win.

FAQs on Birddogs
I get a ton of questions from guys about Birddogs, so I figured I‘d round up the most common ones here:
How do Birddogs fit?
Birddogs have an athletic, slightly slim fit. If you‘re in between sizes, they recommend sizing up for a looser fit. The shorts come in 3 lengths: 6" (mid-thigh), 7" (above knee), and 9" (at knee). Pants come in classic numbered sizes.
Are Birddogs worth the price?
IMO, 100% yes. They‘re definitely pricier than your standard gym shorts or chinos. But you‘re getting a premium quality 2-in-1 garment, so it‘s actually a great value. Plus, Birddogs offers free shipping, returns, and exchanges.
What‘s the liner like?
The liner is made of a silky smooth, moisture-wicking blend of polyester and spandex. It‘s thin and lightweight, but still supportive. You barely notice it‘s there, but it keeps you feeling secure and free.
Can you really go commando in Birddogs?
Yep, that‘s the whole point! The built-in liner acts as your underwear, so you can ditch the tighty whities and let your junk breathe. It‘s a totally normal feeling, trust.
How do you wash Birddogs?
Easy – just machine wash cold and tumble dry low. No need to wash them after every single wear either, since the liner stays pretty fresh. I wash mine every 3-4 wears.
The Final Verdict
So, are Birddogs really worth the hype? After wearing them religiously for the past month, I‘ve gotta say, hell yes.
These liner shorts are an absolute game-changer for guys. Whether I‘m crushing a gym sesh, running errands, traveling, heading to the office, or meeting up with friends, my Birddogs keep me cool, dry, and ridiculously comfortable.
