By which I mean underwear . Call me prematurely middle aged, but I always used to buy my underwear and other staple clothing items (i.e. socks etc. I'm not some kind of weirdo who wears clothes made of staples.... honest) in M&S, but when I go to the Mall in St Louis I struggle to find a clothes store that quite fills the same gap. The kind of place where you can buy straightforward men's clothes at a reasonable price and with a decent selection. I know there must be somewhere in the land of the consumer, but I'm felling a little stumped. Any suggestions?

I have no idea what M&S are like, but try one of the department stores like Maceys, Dillards, Sears. They usually sell a selection of men's underwear.

Target, Walmart, Kohls TJMax, Ross if you want to not spend too much money. Otherwise Dillards, Maceys, JC Penney or any big department store.

Or if you want to be lazy and not shop go online and try Amazon, you can buy anything there

Buy online from M&S They will ship internationally.

I've lived here 22 years and still buy underwear at M&S every couple of years, when visiting England. Socks, I like the options over here, better than the UK in my opinion, but not underwear.

Still not found anything I like here, so I'm hoping that the ragtag remains of my underwear drawer will hang on until February when I'm planning a trip back to visit M&S. Oh, yes, and I might pop in to my sisters wedding as well, which she conveniently arranged for the same weekend.

After buying a lot of crap cheaper underwear I discovered that Banana Republic do trollies that seem to outlast everything else by a long margin. I wait until there are sales and then rummage around for the cheapest ones (usually the last few pairs in any given colour/design), which helps to keep the prices down while getting a well-made product that keeps tonrob junior tucked up and safe.

The husband prefers Gap & Old Navy for underwear. We have both nearby. (Maybe they're both even allied with Banana Republic now? Someone mentioned that they are now connected somehow.)

But in a pinch he's also been known to just pick up some Hanes at WalMart or Target also.

They're all the same company. I've tried the Gap ones and have quite a few pairs. I find them ok, but the stitching around the waist elastic is nowhere near as good as Banana Republic. Banana Republic ones in the sales are cheaper than Gap's regular price, but I have to say Gap sale prices are hard to beat.

Most of my boxer shorts were bought either at Banana Republic (for around $4-5 a pair) or Gap (around $3 to $4).

Scouse Express

JC Penny - I normally buy Staffords for my work attire. They last a long time, usually.

Ask Mitt Romney. He knows all about underpants and isn't really doing anything at the moment.

Old Navy or Banana Republic.

I still stock up in M&S when I'm back. Not sure when the next visit will be, though, so I might give that link a try.

I get underwear from Koreatown in any major city. It's the best in the world and it's cheap.
