'MySexyShorts.com' is the creative retailer that's behind a pair of [elephant underwear for men](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/manmade). Dubbed the 'Elephant Shorts No 1,' the products are made from 100% acrylic material that makes them incredibly soft to the touch and comfortable to wear.

The trunk of the animal is placed in a strategic and humorously provocative way -- making the elephant underwear function more as a [novelty gift](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/debute-x-stripe-stare) than as an everyday pair. In addition to the trunks, the garments are complete with big pink ears and an adorable tail on the back.

A black drawstring adorns the top of the products so that it's wearer can adjust the fit of the [cozy material](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lazy-daze-collection) and a trap door on the back adds to the novelty of design even more.
