There’s no need to dig through your boyfriend’s closet for a pair of old, worn-out plaid boxers. The summer trend is in full swing and several brands are making the easy, breezy and timeless pieces just for women.

Several TikTok influencers have created content styling the menswear item for warmer weather. They pair perfectly with a corner-tucked graphic tee, baggy sweatshirt, feminine cropped tank top or even a matching button-down and bralette.

“The boxer short style is trendy yet comfortable. Boxer shorts have the ability to blend with various fashion styles. They can be paired with crop tops for a relaxed summer look, matched with an oversized button-up for a chic street style, or even dressed up with a blazer for a day at the office,” stylist, creative designer and Nacre Voyage fashion label founder Catherine Bibeau tells SI Lifestyle. “This versatility is what makes them a favorite for both city girls and country days.”

Model Kendall Jenner, Gen Z and pop culture phenomenon Olivia Rodrigo, SI Swimsuit model Sixtine and fashionista Matilda Djerf have been spotted wearing the comfy piece in the past, whether its as a swimsuit cover-up or streetwear with some athletic sneakers or loafers. Boxer shorts are a fun and stylish summer staple that can ironically elevate any outfit.
