## Abstract

Men's underpants (10), made primarily of a single kind of cloth (1). Said cloth comprises a pouch body (11) and a front band body (12) and a rear band body (13) extending out from the top of the pouch body (11). Said men's underpants (10) also comprise a ring-shaped waistband (14), which passes through the front band body (12) and the rear band body (13) to form a ring.
