All of DS's boxers have been made from this pattern. I skip the front dart (he's 3! It's not like he needs the room!) and the bottom leg cuffs and just serge the bottom of the legs. When he was potty training I lined the codpeice with 2-3 extra layers and a PUL outer and it worked great. These also make really cute girly boxers when you finish the legs with a lettuce hem
