There's a new French company out there called Freegun and they make, well, underwear....and some other stuff, but primarily underwear.
Why am I bringing this up? Well, they are supporting MX and quite a few racers, like Mike Alessi, and it's damn good stuff.
It's like super thin cycling shorts without the chamois or terry pad. When you first put them on, you'll think they're too small, but after a few minutes it feels like you're wearing nothing, they literally feel like they become part of your skin. They're super light and thin and also wick away moisture, so your nads aren't all sweaty....no Schweady Balls
Best part for racers is that you have full movement because they're skin-like, they're glass smooth so they do not snag or are rough inside your pants, they're thin and light and wick away sweat, making you feel cooler, while giving your nads full support.
I never really thought of underwear for racing, but these guys have done their homework.
I have nothing to do with them, but bought some in Germany and I am impressed.
They are available in the US, I did see a display at the MEC and didn't "get it," but after trying them on, I get it now
Look them up
They also have a clothing line, but I think it's about time someone thought about a decent pair of sports underwear for moto

Jockey midway brief FTW. Same concept, but without the killer skullz. Even comes in mesh "vented" for the Summer.
The Shop
They're good shit
I realize it's an unusual product to discuss, but from wearing them, I think they're perfect for moto because you do not even know you're wearing them, it's like 2nd skin
But yeah, some are pretty funky
It's all I wear now.
I got my first ones in medium, and I swear that the first time I put them on, I thought they were smalls...they just seemed so small
But once on, they're comfortable and the band was fine, no digging.
I was told if you try to buy larger, that's when they ride up some, so they're supposed to be tight fitting to give you that "second skin" fit.
Pit Row
Seriously though do they hold the boys outta the way when riding and when in street clothes will the legs ride up into yo crotch and will the jewels stay in place??? .I hate those jockey or Hanes etc cotton ones...they bunch in the crotch... I ride in the bicycle shorts...chamois (sp?) helps with monkey butt for me
Thank you for the love (or not). :-)

I know this is a really old post but I figured I'd ask here rather than start a new topic. Anyways I am curious if Freegun still sponsors the Pulp MX Show because I don't see them as a sponsor on their site anymore. I would really like to use any sort of discount I can, although I will end up paying retail if nothing works out. I own two pairs of Freegun and the stuff is great. But wondering if anyone knows about sponsorship or discounts, really want to help support the company and get the name out more, it is really comfortable. Emailed and called and didn't get any responses Anyways thanks to anyone who is willing to help out or let me now any info. Maybe "Lebig" Stephen Legrande will see this... Also the discount codes previously posted do not work.
Thanks,
Luke
