Underwear Designed by Guys Who Get It

Meet our founders, Tom and Garrett—friends, fashion pros, and the minds behind ALPHX.

Because comfort starts with connection

We’re Tom Speight and Garrett Swann—two longtime friends and fashion industry veterans on a mission to create better-fitting, more comfortable underwear for men.After years of frustration with styles that didn’t fit real bodies, we set out to fix the problem ourselves—with smarter cuts, softer fabrics, and a fit that actually moves with you.Because when your underwear fits right, you feel right. And when you feel right, you show up as your best self.

Two Leg Fits. One Standard: Yours.

    Tailored for Slim to Average Thighs

    A precise fit without excess fabric or ride-up.

    Not every guy needs extra leg room—but every guy deserves a great fit. Our Modern Fit was designed for guys with slimmer or average-sized thighs who are tired of excess fabric that rides up or bunches. The result? A sharp, no-fuss silhouette that stays put and feels just right, all day.

    Built for Muscle, Not Sizing Up

    Extra leg room without sacrificing waistband fit.

    Tired of sizing up just to fit your thighs? We were too. That’s why we engineered our Athletic Fit with a wider leg opening—without changing your waist size. It’s made to move with muscular or fuller legs, giving you comfort and support without compromising your fit.

We design for comfort and conscience.

From the first thread to the final mile, every choice is intentional:

  • Plant-Based Fabrics: Our cotton-modal blend is ultra-soft, breathable, and stretchy.
  • Tearaway Tag Design: No scratchy labels—just a clean, motivational message.
  • Thoughtful Details: Smart locker loop, ergonomic pouch, flat seams.

    Made Fair. Made to Last

    Sustainability starts with how our products are made. That’s why we partner with MAS Industries in Sri Lanka—a WRAP-certified facility that upholds the highest standards of ethical labor, environmental responsibility, and product quality.

    By manufacturing with care and intention, we can create underwear that lasts longer, feels better, and does less harm—without shortcuts or compromises.

    Respect for people. Respect for the planet. That’s the ALPHX standard.
