Short answer: pick your boxer size by your waist measurement, not your trouser size. Measure around your natural waist and match it to the brand's size chart. If you're between sizes, size down with Hawa, since our boxers are made to fit snugly.
How to measure
- Waist: wrap a tape measure around your waist where the boxer sits, level, without pulling tight.
- Compare to the chart: match your cm measurement to the brand's S/M/L/XL guide.
- Use the size calculator on the product page for an accurate recommendation based on your height, weight and build.
What to do if you're between sizes With Hawa, go for the smaller size since the boxer is designed to fit snugly. And if it doesn't work out, the First Pair Guarantee lets you try it and we'll send the right size or refund you.
Fit tips
- The waistband should sit flat without digging in or rolling.
- The leg should hug your thigh lightly: snug, not tight.
- Stretch fabrics (modal/elastane) give a more forgiving fit across sizes.
