If You’re Going to Give Underwear for a Present…

 

…then THIS is the underwear to give!!

stocking-with-freshiq

A huge thanks to Hanes for partnering with me on this sponsored post and for the gift of FreshIQ™ underwear for my guys. (I’m not sure who loves it more – them or me!!)

As I’ve said often, I live in a house full of guys. Heck, even the dog is a boy. While this may have some advantages (I feel like we are pretty light on the drama here), there is definitely an abundance of smells. And I am not just talking about the typical burp and fart smells. Both my guys are pretty active which brings about a whole new world of smells, if you know what I mean.

Sweat producing activities are year round for my guys. Winter is basketball season, spring brings track and field (Jay coaches and Josh competes, so both of them are running more days a week than not), summer is a variety of scout camps, basketball camp, golf camp and a myriad of other outside activities. Fall brings cross country where there is a practice or meet every day.

I’ve got my own ways of dealing with the stink – I’ve learned that getting the offending clothes right into the washer is much preferred to letting the guys throw them in the hamper and then spending the next few days trying to figure out what the heck smells and where it is coming from. I also love diffusing my essential oils to provide a pleasant smelling alternative.

But the best defense, by far, is battling the stink at the source.

Outfitting my guys with underwear that helps keep them fresh is a great place to start. Hanes has come out with a new product that helps with this. Hanes® with FreshIQ™ is a great tool to help with keeping my guys as stink-free as possible. Hanes® with FreshIQ™ attracts and kills odor-causing bacteria helping to reduce unpleasant odors from clothing – which is just nicer for everyone involved!

Hanes® with FreshIQ™ has t-shirts, socks, and underwear that have all of the features that you already love about Hanes: tag-free, durable, and soft. The FreshIQ™ is just an added (and much appreciated!) feature to the products we already use and love.

So even though I’d sworn in the past not to give underwear as a gift, I’m thinking that there will probably be some Hanes® with FreshIQ™ in the stockings this year – it is as much a gift to me as to the guys!

    As a kid, our stockings were filled with socks and underwear. We were so disappointed LOL.

    My boys are definitely Hanes kind of guys, so they will love this. I usually give undies as a stocking stuffer and thankfully they don’t mind.

    There’s nothing like a nice new pair of undies and socks for Christmas. I don’t know what my husband and son do to theirs, but they need them EVERY year.

    Now THIS is something worth looking into. My husband is a sweat machine, so I think this would be perfect for him. Thanks!

    We swear by Hane’s brand around here. My husband has a ton of Hane’s undershirts that he wears under his work shirt every day.

    My older son is used to be a sporty person! He might want Hanes socks and undershirts. Love their items.

    I know my husband certainly works up a sweat when he works out.
    This looks like some good material technology!

    This would be perfect for my teen who is quite heavily into sports! He needs some new ones too so I will have to find these!
