Totally agree with this approach. I would go one step further and recommend pure merino wool underwear if you can get ya hands on it. I find synthetics to be pretty bad from both a hygiene and environmental point of view. I haven't worn anything but [these](https://www.smittenmerino.com/collections/mens-merino-wool-pants/products/mens-merino-wool-boxer-mens-boxer-shorts-th00095) while riding for a few years now, including a couple of 7 day straight / 1000km rides, with not a saddle sore to be found.
