THE COMEBACK CASE

YOUR DRAWER GOT TIGHTER.
YOUR FIT DOESN'T HAVE TO.

The boxer was never gone. It was waiting for everyone else to remember that comfort can look this good.

01

Room, finally.

Classic relaxed and loose fits let you move without the squeeze. Easy under denim, even better when the waistband shows.

02

Cotton, no compromise.

The three featured picks below are 100% cotton: breathable woven checks or soft single jersey, depending on your level of loose.

03

Personality included.

Checks, stripes, colour and the kind of tiny details that make getting dressed less serious.

BORN IN MELBOURNE

FROM 150 PAIRS ON CHAPEL STREET TO 20 MILLION+.

Mitch started with hand-painted boxer shorts in 1987 and sold 150 pairs in one week. The idea was simple: everyday things should feel good and have a point of view.

Still independent. Still designed in Melbourne. Still distinctly Mitch Dowd.

BEFORE YOU DROP TROU

GOOD THINGS TO KNOW.

Straight answers, no bunching.

Which boxer should I start with?

Go woven for a crisp, airy classic. Choose loose knit for a softer jersey feel with a little more drape. The Checkers, Loose Knit and Classic Check picks featured here are all 100% cotton.

What sizes are available?

The featured three-packs run from S–2XL. The wider collection includes selected styles beyond that range. Check each product page or use the official size guide before ordering.

How does Australian shipping work?

Standard shipping is free over $90 within Australia. Otherwise, tracked standard shipping is $10. Allow 1–3 working days for dispatch. International options and costs appear at checkout.

Can I return them?

Mitch Dowd offers a refund or garment exchange within 30 days of receipt when items are unworn with original labels and tags. You must first request a Return Authorisation Number; ordinary return postage is at your expense and original shipping is not refundable. See the full returns policy.

Where does checkout happen?

Every shop button on this page takes you to the official Mitch Dowd store, where size selection, payment and order support are handled securely.
