Shane Oman's Underwear


Why would the character Shane Oman wear a pair of gray briefs for underwear instead of a pair of boxers? Given that he's a popular, cool, athletic jock who seems to want to maintain his status as one of the school's cool kids, why wouldn't he wear a type of underwear that was cooler and not as nerdy? You would think that a guy like him would be in boxers, and that if he did want additional support, he would wear boxer briefs. He just doesn't seem like a briefs guy at all, and it's weird that that's what he's seen wearing.

He wants to show off his bod obviously.

That must be it. I guess he doesn't worry that his friends will find out and make fun of him for wearing briefs.

Wasn't he a jock? So his friends probably already knew and were accepting hence his continuance of wearing them.
