Jockey nailed it! I have been a big fan of the Midway briefs ever since they introduced them. I like the low rise at the waist and the longer leg that goes down to the bottom of the thigh. Previously, I was wearing the Go Stretch Midway and liked them, but the waistline was still too high and I would usually fold it over to get it just right. The waistline on these Sport Performance Midways is perfect! I also like the polyester/spandex material. It breathes well and does not creep too much. I have compared these to a similar style from the company that specializes in synthetic material (rhymes with Wonder Warmer) which I also like. However, the waist on the competitive product is too high for me and they cost twice as much. That makes these Jockeys a bargain by comparison. I have not had these long enough to speak of durability, but they appear to be well constructed and they wash up very well. Eventually, I would like to see Jockey make this exact same fit out of the 95 cotton/5 spandex material which is a little warmer and softer. The airflow of these is great, but sometimes it can be more than you want on cold days (I wear shorts all of the time). If you like a low rise and long leg fit combined with very breathable polyester/spandex fabric, these Sport Performance Midways are definitely for you. And as mentioned before, the price is unbeatable when compared to similar products.

I ordered two packages of 2 briefs as I really liked ones I had ordered 6 months ago. Upon opening the packages I found one pair that was defective. Poor sewing job on the front yoke of the brief. After wearing two other pairs of the briefs the exact same thing happened, the seam came apart in the exact same place as the first pair. I sent the first pair back prior to experiencing the second and third problem and to this date have not received as much as a communication from Jockey in regards to my problem. After the other two pair were found defective I have sent communications twice to customer service and so far no response from them. I like the product as far as fit, comfort and support but the quality is horrible at best.

Not terribly comfortable

Comments about Jockey Sport Performance Athletic Midway® Brief – 2 pack:
I ordered these because they were on sale, and I really like Jockey's regular midway boxer briefs. These are made of a slick, stretchy material, very breathable, but they tend to pull down and not stay in place. They also have very little give and are just a bit tighter than one would like. If you like the midway briefs, stick to them.
Husband loves these for outside work!

Bought these for my husband as he works outside and his thighs chap frequently. He loves them and says they really keep him from chapping.

Good Fit but GROWING poor performance
By chris
from north carolina
I have been using these mid-way briefs for a long while. I like them. First they up the price and drop the amount of units per package almost quadrupling the price and over the past couple of years, I don't get 15 wears before the material gets thin, holes appear at seams. I was them gently now but its all at the seams. Just very poor quality. I have actually started to purchase others and will continue to move away from Jockey if they do not fix this.
Not for me
By Big Guy

I really wanted to like these. The fit on the leg was excellent and they did not ride up, but there was no selection for riding down. Stayed on my leg, but rode down my butt and I was constantly trying to pull them up. They will be returned.
Great Support for Every Day

I really like the athletic midway brief. They are great for working out in or wearing everyday when wanting to keep my legs and waist under control. They are comfortable to wear, but can get somewhat hot during warm weather. Overall, a great Jockey product.
great product ....will be buying more

Great Feel, But Fell Apart AGAIN
By Me
from PA
These look and feel great. However, I wore them once, put them in the wash, and for no reason at all they split along a seam. Jockey continues to be a great company, and therefore they are immediately sending me out a new pair. However, in my experience this has become a pattern with Jockey clothing over the past two years. Nothing fits or feels better, but they either wear out WAY too quickly, or fall apart at the seams almost immediately. I love the style and fit of your products, Jockey, but please improve on your quality!!!
Great fit

I wear these everyday. They're great when working out, at the office, or at home. I like having 1 style of underwear that I can use for everything, and this is it.

They seem to be one size too large-I like a loose fit but there do not stay on.

I was really having issues with rubbing and chafing while working outside. These had cured the problem.
