For the master swimmer who wears his Speedos so low you can almost see what's below, we've always wondered whether he even wears underwear at all. With his long torso, his pants ride so low that it looks like he may have nothing underneath.
But today I stumbled across these photos that prove that Michael Phelps does wear underwear, and they look like briefs or boxer briefs, although we're unsure of the brand.
Top Olympic medalist Michael Phelps met up with Australian swimmer hottie Stephanie Rice in Beijing for Speedo Athlete Media Day for some great photos. He quickly pulled off his shirt to pose for the pics, and you can get a glimpse of his underwear waistband sticking above his short. I can't quite tell what brand they are -- it appears to be 2 words, but I can't get a good image. If you can figure it out, or if you know of other photos of Michael Phelps in underwear (other than the Speedo Axcelerate underwear images that have been out for a while), please comment on this post.
The photos are originally from a slideshow on the Australian MSN site.
Looks like Calvin Kleins.

Definitely CK - the band could be sen more clearly in some of the newspaper pics printed in Oz
