Question ID: 211298
For the past 30 years or more I have been wearing a certain kind of
underwear, there called middies (Jockies with legs). I am a 63 year
old man who doesn't want to change. Please find these for me.
"Towncraft® 50% cotton 50% poloyester mid-length shorts, size 54-56"
Please, the ones I'm wearing now are so thin, you can read a newspaper
thru them @ 10 paces.

Request for Question Clarification by bobbie7-ga on 01 Jun 2003 10:37 PDT
Tblh-ga,

Does it have to be the Towncraft brand or can it be a similar style in
another brand as I can't seem to find the Towncraft brand online.

Thanks

Try this first. Towncraft 04400-8 WPL 11935. These numbers were on the label.

I will except another brand, but the rest must remain the same.

Hello again - #211298, I finally got around to trying to buy, no luck.
There is a lot of false advertizing out there. Non of them had 50/50.
HELP !!!

Clarification of Answer by bobbie7-ga on 11 Jun 2003 17:12 PDT
Tblh-ga,

It is very unfortunate that the vendors advertise 50/50 and in the end
it's false advertising. I will do additional research in order to find
Midlength Briefs that are 50/50. This may take a few days as this item
is extremely hard to find.

Thanks

I'll check it out, but usually if it says boxer, there not what I want. 
What I want will say "Mid-length brief" or middie.

Clarification of Answer by bobbie7-ga on 12 Jun 2003 08:25 PDT
Please check it out because the picture looks similar to the ones you want.
Thanks,
Bobbie7

I was checking out the description of the Big King Court Midlength
Briefs. They say that  “Heather Grey and Heather Denim Blue are
cotton/polyester.”

I hope your order from Blair turns out to be just what you want!
