We created this luxurious style to mark 70 years since Sunspel's own John Hill introduced the Boxer Short to Britain. Cut from authentic Sea Island cotton (Grown in the Caribbean and handpicked by specialists), the Original British Boxer Short has a refined, lustrous appearance thanks to the incredibly fine, extra-long-staple cotton yarn.
The design is based on a pair of button fly boxers found in the Sunspel archive. Soft channel construction on the waistband, mother of pearl buttons, and the classic Boxer Short cut.

A Legacy of Luxury
Thomas Hill founded Sunspel in 1860 with a vision to use exceptional fabrics to craft the world’s most comfortable underwear. Staying true to this ethos, we pioneered the first luxury T-shirt undergarments in the early 1900s, invented cellular cotton and in 1947, introduced the Boxer Short to Britain. Today we continue to innovate, drawing on over a century and a half of expertise: our fabrics are crafted from the finest natural materials to be beautifully soft and durable, and our designs have been refined to be as functional and comfortable as possible.
