Had to order a size up but I almost went 2 sizes up. They're designed to be snug, yet snug enough to "squeeze" a man's sensitive areas unless you order a size up. The feel and fit are great if you are the right size and they are very comfortable. I have walked the Grand Canyon in it and have not been disappointed and have had no problems. It should be noted that the GORE logo was washed out in just 2 washes, but I personally don't care.
