Later on, the loincloth was replaced by a form of men’s underwear which was sort of like a short-legged trouser during the Middle Ages. These types had laces to be tied around the waist so that the underwear stayed in its proper place. Some of those forms of underwear had a feature which was called a cod piece which was actually a flap in the frontal portion of the underwear. This feature was the earlier version of a fly, which is now a common phenomenon in all trousers. Some of the underwear was available with the inclusion of pads, which increased the comfort factor of the clothing manifold times.
With the industrial period, underwear began to be manufactured on a huge scale. The earlier manufactured underwear was made from cotton. But later on, with the passage of time, other materials came to be used like nylon, polyester, spandex, etc. In fact, these materials are now mixed in varying proportions to give birth to newer materials.
