Believe it or not, men's underwear sales are considered a legitimate economic indicator by many, including Alan Greenspan. Like most things "durable", you'll wear your skivvies longer if the recession is weighing on you. A sign of recovery can be the day when enough men venture out to replace those less than perfect ones in the undie drawer. Apparently, from recent numbers, the economy has bottomed but we've yet to see signs of recovery. Underwear sales have stopped receding. One has to wonder what the state of male hygiene would be if this downturn was a more sustained one.
