I'm seriously curious how these shorts, which were normally worn by boxers, suddenly became a popular underwear garment for guys. Is it that they all secretly imagine themselves to be a big strapping boxer? Regardless, I'm going to let them continue with their little secret identity, because I'm going to show everyone how you can create your own men's boxers, complete with the button fly.
Creating basic shorts are actually a very easy project and a perfect project for beginners. The elastic waistband helps make it customizable. If you're a little unsure about doing a buttonhole, you can skip that step if you want. The pattern created here is a large but it should fit most. You can always enlarge the pattern pieces if you want to make it bigger. And if you want to make the length of the shorts longer, you can just extend the inner leg and side seam lengths to whatever desired length you want. You can even extend them to the floor and make yourself some lounge around pants.
I have updated that boxers pattern to see if it causes less issues with people having random pages not being able to print. Let me know if anyone else has issues, its weird that this pattern is the only one that has printing issues.

need advise. All pages are printed except page 2. How can i get a page 2?
I sent you an email with page 3. Look for an email with the subject of “Professor Pincushion Boxers Page 3”. It is coming from support. Please reply to the support email address if you need further help.
Hello, can someone post page three (3) of this pattern for me please? No matter how much I try, it will not print. The entire document printed and this page came out blank. I’ve tried printing it individually several times now and it keeps telling me no page selected to print even though I keep selecting it. Thanks in advance, Jacqui. 🙂
just page 3?? It prints fine for me. make sure scaling is to none in your printer settings. Also maybe there is an option to “auto center”. Try auto centering. Even if there was an issue with the margins and your printer, it should still print the page. Maybe as a test, scale down page 3 to 50% to see if it can just physically print. If none of that problem solving works, Let me know.
page 3 on the pdf file will not print… I have tried on 2 different computers and printers…
thank you for the update on the boxer short pattern, easier for a beginner to follow. thanks.
This system of labeling the pattern “chunks” is easier to follow. Many thanks
The boxers pattern has been updated to be much easier to put it together.
