Retail Industry: Men’s Underwear Market
COMPANY HISTORY
Date Established: April 19, 2018
Frii Wilii was an idea which came to fruition based on a hospital visit made by Michael Maynard. While visiting an old friend in a hospital, Michael was asked to turn around by a nurse as she quickly adjusted his friend’s catheter. His friend complained of his discomfort and how all of his counterparts were on display. At that moment, Michael thought why not make an undergarment with a hole for the catheter so that only the penis would be exposed. Michael looked up to this friend most of his life reduced to a pincushion, and one of those being placed in his penis further reducing the pride and joy of every man in the world. Michael wondered why after so many years this problem had never been solved.
As Michael worked with an overseas manufacturer, he developed the garment through his own research and development, which meant he had to wear the undergarment in order to make the utility patent perfect. Wearing the underwear garment felt amazing, and the undergarment increased his confidence by not being smashed as traditional boxer briefs offered. At that point, Michael knew he would create a new brand with a flagship boxer brief named Frii Wilii for everyday wearers. Instead of embarking on the hospital undergarment, he created “The Commando Brief” for all guys to enjoy. The hospital undergarment is resting as an offshoot to the retail e-commerce business until funding is appropriated.
Although men’s underwear has always been a necessity, men have enthusiastically ventured from their grandfather’s style of underwear. The demand for underwear to perform and meet the needs of men has steadily increased in very recent years. Underwear has a high profit margin, and so sales of men’s underwear has proven to be highly beneficial to brands. Men have shown to be enthused and loyal to brands having brand personality, Frii Wilii offers such brand personality: excitement, sincerity, ruggedness, and competence.
Only 5% – 7% of men do not wear underwear leaving 93% – 95% of men in need of underwear. The open market for Frii Wilii boxer briefs can be globally realized between the ages of 16yrs to 55yrs.

“The Commando Brief”
What is Frii Wilii?
Frii Wilii is an advancing men’s boxer brief that which allows men the ability to virtually “go commando” having counterpart/scrotum support. Frii Wilii makes you feel confident and provides a unique feel for the male anatomy.
What makes the crotch design so different?
Frii Wilii has an iris that which allows the male member (Wilii) to be Frii from confinement. The iris is a circular, cornice-shaped sewn-in material providing comfort for the male anatomy as you Frii your Wilii.
What covers the male anatomy when the male member is Frii?
Frii Wilii has a veil, which covers your Wilii. The veil is sewn on each side of the crotch as it covers your male member (Wilii).
Will the veil completely cover the male member?
The veil is designed to completely cover the male member, but the veil will not completely cover the male member in all instances of Frii Wilii being worn.
Wilii is Frii, but what about the counterparts?
Wilii’s counterparts pleasantly tuck in the frontal crotch portion. No more saggy, Wilii counterparts as found in other boxer briefs that do not retain shape. The Frii Wilii design offers comfort while exploiting your natural anatomy.

Game changing! More comfortable and versatile than I thought- great support and love the “Frii” element….the wife liked the presentation of the packaging as well. The name and logo are marketing genius, buying more for sure. Out with the old technology briefs, these will be all I wear!

Frii Wilii business assets story:
Frii Wilii started with a vision to secure and protect its unique name, and to patent the utility crotch in its men’s boxer briefs. While waiting on his USPTO patent submission (1st submission was December 4th 2017 – which USPTO granted only 1 year to develop), Michael Maynard started working on the design (designed in the USA). He worked on the crotch design by meticulously cutting fabrics at his kitchen table for hours on end as he liquid stitched the fabric together in order to send samples to India for production samples.
After 8 shipments, the final product was born! Michael purchased a PO from the India manufacturer of only 1000 underwear as he started to build his e-commerce storefront. Michael found another manufacturer in Vietnam, earned trust within a mutual friend, and soon hired her as a Frii Wilii clothing agent who performed all shipping and handling, QA, and negotiations with the new Frii Wilii Manufacturer.
It wasn’t long before Michael was ready to launch his new online store. Working with his new agent in Vietnam, Michael grew his inventory with many different SKUs ranging from T-Shirts, Golf shirts, and three generations of Frii Wilii boxer briefs—along with Frii Wilii swag!
October 2020 Michael launched his online store with very little advertising other than Facebook friends aware and ready to order. Throughout the pandemic, Frii Wilii sales have been quite good considering little advertising expenditures. Today, Michael has written a sound business plan, and he is looking for a serious investor who may consider acquiring a good portion of the business for capital in order to make the Frii Wilii brand competent with other well-known brands such as UA, NIKE, PUMA, and ADIDAS.
