They believe in smart design, premium fabrics, and simple shopping. I’ve been focusing on their underwear and have been wearing their AIRKNITx 5-inch boxer briefs for a while now, and I absolutely love them. They are engineered to keep you dry, cool, and comfortable to the end of your workout (or workday).

It’s breathable, moisture-wicking, and odor-fighting.To get 20% off your first order, visit&nbsp;<a href="http://mackweldon.com/TimTim" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">MackWeldon.com/TimTim</a>&nbsp;and enter promo code TIMTIM.&nbsp;<a href="http://mackweldon.com/TimTim" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Mack Weldon</a>—reinventing men’s basics.*This episode is also brought to you by&nbsp;<a href="http://wealthfront.com/Tim" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Wealthfront</a>!&nbsp;<a href="http://wealthfront.com/Tim" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Wealthfront</a>&nbsp;pioneered the automated investing movement, sometimes referred to as ‘robo-advising,’ and they currently oversee $20 billion of assets for their clients.
