From Jiu-Jitsu to Modeling, Tommy John's Boxer Briefs Support You When It Counts

Devout and occasional gym goers alike can attest to the pitfalls of loose fabric during training. Supportive undergarments are essential to remaining in the zone and focusing on your gains. Luckily, Tommy John specializes in designing breathable, stylish silhouettes that remain inconspicuous in the heat of a workout. And for model and practicing Jujitsuka Ikce Wicasa, comfort is non-negotiable.

Tommy John’s latest limited-edition drop includes a range of best-selling Second Skin Precious Metals underwear, available in four-, six- and eight-inch inseams. Fashioned with three unique metallic waistbands, the tried-and-true boxer briefs are each meticulously designed with a lightweight stretch fabric that supports dynamic movement, a non-slip Stay-Put Waistband and Horizontal Quick Draw® Fly that eliminates awkward bunching and provides easy access when nature calls. Even during intensive training, a breathable, silky-soft skin feel keeps the areas that count most secure and unbothered. Sporting the brand’s latest range of men’s briefs, the professional model provides a behind-the-scenes look at his day-to-day schedule, from Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu to consecutive modeling gigs throughout the streets of NYC.

Like any seasoned cover model, Wicasa starts the day with a proper grooming regimen, including an under-eye treatment to appear well-rested and fresh-faced. Signed to Next Model Management, Wicasa’s campaigns for Tommy Hilfiger, SSENSE, Prabal Gurung, and a recent cover shoot for Wonderland Magazine showcase the model’s versatility as a fashion savant, transitioning from vibrant pink hair to bleached blond curls with confident ease. Embracing a lax approach to his street style, he slips on a pair of Tommy John Second Skin Precious Metals boxer briefs, jeans and an all-black hoodie before taking to the mat — his first destination on an incredibly packed schedule.

Originating from Japan, Jujutsu is a self-defense close combat that utilizes grappling, throwing and striking techniques to subdue opponents. Variations of the martial art, like Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, consist of floor-based grappling and gripping techniques, also commonly practiced as a competitive sport, requiring years of dedication before earning high-tier black and red belts.

Suiting up in a traditional Gi and equipping his blue belt, Wicasa warms up with floor stretches before practicing with his first opponent. In the throes of mat grappling, Tommy John boxer briefs stay put, providing a seamless wear that naturally complements the body, with no signs of slipping or bunching — despite the compromising positions at hand. 

Later, Wicasa models the briefs on a city fire escape, ahead of rushing to his next destination on a packed subway car. During the day, a peak at Tommy John’s branded metallic waistband nods to the no-hassle undergarment, effortlessly paired with sportswear and on-trend street styles.
