The best silk boxers for men: What to look for & Why Mulberry silk wins
When it comes to everyday luxury, few garments feel as indulgent — and as practical — as a great pair of silk boxers. But not all silk is created equal. If you’re shopping for the best silk boxers for men, it’s worth understanding what to look for — from fabric quality to fit and craftsmanship.
At Tara Sartoria, we create artisan mulberry silk boxers designed for comfort, breathability, and timeless style. Here's why they stand out — and how to choose the right pair.
1. Why Mulberry Silk Is the Gold Standard
There are many types of silk, but mulberry silk is considered the finest. Harvested from silkworms fed exclusively on mulberry leaves, this silk is smoother, stronger, and more durable than other varieties.
- Breathable & temperature-regulating
- Hypoallergenic and gentle on skin
- Natural sheen and softness that lasts
Unlike cheaper silk blends, mulberry silk offers long-term comfort without compromising on luxury.
2. The Importance of Craftsmanship
A great fabric deserves expert construction. At Tara Sartoria, our boxers are handmade by skilled artisans using traditional tailoring techniques passed down through generations.
- Reinforced seams for durability
- Thoughtful cuts that flatter without riding up
- Waistbands that stay in place — without digging in
Each pair is made in small batches, ensuring quality and ethical production every step of the way.
3. Style That Works — Day & Night
Our mens silk boxers aren’t just for sleeping. They’re designed to be worn under trousers or lounging at home, offering all-day comfort with a polished look.
- Neutral tones for effortless elegance
- Subtle details like piping and side slits
- Available in standard and plus sizes
Whether you're dressing up or winding down, they move with you — not against you.
4. Can Silk Boxers Be Washed? Yes, Ours Can
We get this question a lot: Are silk boxers hard to care for? Not ours.
Our washable silk boxers are designed to be both luxurious and low-maintenance. You can machine wash them on a gentle cycle and air dry — no dry cleaning required.
5. Why Men Are Choosing Silk
More men are making the switch from cotton or synthetic underwear to mulberry silk boxers for the ultimate in softness and breathability. They’re especially great for:
- Sensitive skin
- Warm climates
- Anyone who values quiet luxury
6. Not All Silk Is Created Equal: Why Momme Matters
When shopping for silk, one of the most overlooked (but important) details is the momme weight — the measure of silk’s density and quality.
Most mass-produced silk boxers use 19 momme silk, which is thin, prone to tearing, and loses its softness over time. At Tara Sartoria, we use only top-grade 27 momme mulberry silk — the same luxurious weight used in high-end tailoring and premium bedding.
- Feels thicker, smoother, and more substantial
- Better drape and longevity
- More resistant to wear and tear
Once you feel the difference, you'll never go back to flimsy silk.
Experience the Difference
Tara Sartoria boxers are more than just underwear — they’re an investment in daily comfort and quiet confidence. Made with 100% mulberry silk, they’re built to last and feel amazing from the very first wear.

I love these silk boxers, they are so soft and comfortable. They fit perfectly and are hands down the best quality silk boxers I have ever had and I have tried quite an assortment. These are absolutely worth every penny!! After wearing these and washing them a few times to make sure everything held up well, I ordered myself another 2 pairs. If you are looking for a pair of quality silk boxers, then you can not go wrong with these.
