Any recommendations for non-padded commuter friendly briefs?

I don't want to wear full cycling shorts, as I would prefer not to have change after my short commute, and I often cycle to get my lunch. However, it seems all of my current briefs somehow manage to become insanely uncomfortably instantly when I cycle, either by bunching up or managing to get a seam in the one spot where they can cause most aggro.

HELP!

The trouble with going commando is catching your knackers in the chain. It does sting a bit.
On a serious note, I wear Sloggi's and dont tend to get any issues.

I went commando once in non-cycling shorts and I ended up with my cock and balls hanging out of one of the legs.

I wear 3/4 length shorts, so this is unlikely to be a problem with me.

Strick, some of those Sloggi's look comfy. Maybe I need to be thinking of longer legged undies/ boxers.

I have been using these recently and I'm finding them very comfortable, I'm using them under unpadded shorts for 50-60 mile club rides, I notice the price has gone up a bit since I brought mine though.

These are comfortable as well but are baggy and can ride up

I run and cycle. Cycling, I tend for commando under padded lycra. Running was a bit of a problem though. Cotton might be OK most of the time, but when you're running etc it can get a bit..... moist? I also have a problem with boxers etc the legs always seem to bunch up, running or not.

About 6-12 months ago I was out for a trot and got talking to a mate. Turns out his clothing tip worked for me. Marks and Spencers.

They have a ranges microskin(?) and ultra-fit (?) that do the job. Not sure on their current range, as when I realised they worked I replaced a load of my old grundies.

Might be worth checking out?

If you're wanting un-padded then I've found that Calvin Klein 'Body Stretch' are very good. Err on the smaller size if you're border line, they have a % of lycra in them so they keep close to the skin without bunching etc.
